Hi! I leave here my 2 cents :)
- Pros:
- I would definitely play/pay for a metroidvania with this aesthetics.
- Cons:
- I kinda understand your decision to not have music but the silence in conjugation with the multiple "burpers" can get a bit annoying.
- I cannot recall a metroidvania with a life system like you implemented.
- Not fan of being thrown in the air after i hit a "beetle"... Makes me just avoid them altogether because i feel like i'm being punished for hitting them.
If you are to keep iterating over this game i would love to see something regarding light play.. i think it would go great with your aesthetics! :)
Keep up the good work!
