There's a lot to like about this game it has a strong narrative through line with a sad story, the controls are tight and the positioning based combat is super cool (I'm glad I got the range upgrade early). It took me a few deaths to get the hang of it, but once I found it very satisfying and tactical. I also liked the art.
However i got super lost in the 2nd cave I entered. It was HUGE. I got lost for like 10 minutes, died twice trying to speed run my way to the end, and then went I got to the area with the 3 bats I got wrecked so unfortunately I didn't finish, which is unfortunate because I was quite invested in the story :(
Performance was great, I played the web build.
I also like that you included an asset disclosure. It's nice to know which assets were made during the jam.
Great entry!
