I was really digging the 2D pixel aesthetic. The sprite animation is top notch and full of life! Unfortunately, I got soft-locked trying to save Aldius's assistant because the bad bot got stuck at a higher elevation:
And then all the NPCs stopped talking with me. Which is a shame because the writing was a lot of fun and full of character! I definitely want to come back to this game later to do some more exploring. (I saw Schippie in the distance giving me mocking looks.) The combat is actually very satisfying, and I'm so so so chuffed you included a soccer ball and net!
