Many thanks for playing our game, we really appreciate it. Glad you liked the graphics and the puzzle mechanics.
You're spot on about the enemy dying taking to long. We should have interrupted the animation as soon as the enemy was dead and then done the death animation. Instead we let their attack animation complete and then started the death animation. Another lesson learned!
You're right about the narrative as well. We did want to do an intro sequence that explained why you were in the cave. We had it as text in the itch.io page but that's never good enough really.
Again, you're so right. Sound effects were a last minute addition to the game and we ran out of time to put them everywhere we wanted to.
Thanks for the feedback. Great job with your game too.
