I don't think I've ever felt emotionally impacted by a game jam game before, so that's really incredible! You added a ton for such a short time, and it's really thematically consistent. Would've preferred a slightly less extreme punishment for failure, but other than that I really enjoyed it! Great job!

Thanks! It really means a lot! I was hoping to make it emotional in some way, and it's actually only my 2nd project making my own art so I'm glad it fits together nicely!
Everyone has mentioned the difficulty and while I want it to be difficult; making it too difficult seems to be the issue. I'm actually moving forward with updates to the project including a health system and after a game mode with checkpoints for a more fun experience. I'll be publishing them once the rating for this jam has ended :)
