Thanks for playing (and working through that installation process)! I'm especially happy that it sounds like you beat it because that means you got to see my personal favorite sprite that I made for the game (hint: it's not the player with the crown on).
Also, I absolutely love the art style of your entry. Unfortunately, I can't play and rate because I use a Chromebook and haven't figured Linux weirdness to allow me to play Windows exes yet (I know, the hypocrisy; I really do regret not getting a better build of this up), so I thought I'd take the chance to let you know how awesome the art is here. It just looks freaking great.
