We did notice the difficulty was a bit much, but we didn't have much time to change it (game jam, you know how it goes).
Protip: include a cheat mode so the players can activate it and go to the end. ;) For example, many puzzle games allow you to skip a level or/and just choose one; in your case, something like invicibility would do the trick.
(By the way, I did assess the game without taking the difficulty issue into account, it is one of the games I tested that I really enjoyed. :))
Thanks for the ending! I was sure it was also something funny. XD Grim Reaper rhymes with trickster.
PS: how come I only realize now how reminiscent of Grim Fandango’s Manny Calavera this is?! It’s totally Manny Calavera as the main antagonist!
