oooh how I hateloved the enemies which waited for a few seconds on one end of their patrol route but did not on the other one :D I love the art style, especially the main character is relatable for me personally. The doomslayer vs pacifist choice has potential to create much different gameplay styles and that's cool. I think it would have been fine to make the checkpoints actual checkpoints, you know to BE NICE to some of us reckless peoples :) . You could add it as second personality test option where you ask if you are hardcore enough to play without checkpoints, so your original difficulty design is still preserved. Great job overall!
