Hello, my friend. Thank you for your feedback and compliments; I appreciate you staying in the game long enough to make these observations.
Well, the way I saw it, I didn't have to literally follow the theme, I just had to build around it in some way, and what I did was randomise most values from 1 to 6 and add enemies fitting the theme (might not fit the theme that much but i guess it is what it is)
I just focused on implementing the 2d platformer main menu and didn't have much time for further polishing, that might be the reason why the UI isn't very user friendly.
and it's true that the map design was not very good, due to the lack of time, and given more time, I would have probably thought of better layouts for the rooms.
I considered forcing the player into the rooms, but when I tried it, it proved to make the game more difficult, so I scrapped the idea because the game was already too difficult under certain conditions.
and thankfully I have finished fixing most of these problems in a newer version of the game that I'll be updating after the game jam is done, and I'd appreciate you giving it a retry then.
Thank you for the detailed feedback, and I'm glad you liked what you liked.
