Awesome game!!!
The procedural Generation sometimes felt a bit unfair,
but at least not bad for 48 hours!
Keeping the upgrades was really nice idea.
Good luck :)

the jumping is pretty inconsistent. otherwise pretty good but some of the deaths feel super cheap like oh a spike right in front of the door. there is no way i can avoid that:P

Great looking game, I really like the aesthetic and how the rooms are presented. The visuals are a bit blurry for me though. Overall, great job.

I love Rouguelikes and it looks pretty nice, but somehow it's totally bugged for me. I've jumped through ceiling, fell into other room and then straight to exit. Every room was blinking too.

A bit too easy, and the controls are kinda floaty. A chest spawned in front of the exit and I couldn't get the item... Nice graphics, nice music! I'm playing more to see all the items, heh. Great job!

Nice one! I found it quite hard sometimes, but overall a great game! Also, it reminds me of Spelunky.

Well done!
A bit hard, but nice mechanics. It got a nice upgrading system, like a real metroidvania should have.

I like the name of the genre ;)

Really nice use of the theme. Only issue is that the dungeon generation seems to trap you into unreachable areas. I've tried five times and have been unable to explore the whole map.

Wow such a good interpretation of the theme and so well made. Very challenging too. We like it and will share it on Twitter :)

It was really hard to see some of those enemies at those sizes, and often it wouldn't matter if you could because the random generation would put you in unwinnable situations. Still, that wasn't really a big deal for how short the dungeon was, and the fact that you pretty much had to play it several times to beat it. I really enjoy these kinds of games, and this one was pretty well put-together, considering the time constraints.

The deadends and insta death trap rooms are both hilarious and frustrating. I love the humor and fun graphics. The detail in the animations like the fall animation really help polish it up.

The main mechanic (moving + jump) gets a little boring..since it's always the same and exploring happens instantly. The great humor helps push the game along though.

Pleasant to play through!

I love procedural dungeon, the game idea is realy cool and fun. It's a bit frustrating at first, when you only have your slow walk and jump, and you get stuck and have to kill yourself. Keep up the good work !

wow! The procedural or random generation whichever you are using doesn't generate fully traversal levels all times. I got stuck twice with no where to go. Had to start over but I didn't hesitated at all. I like the aesthetics of the game and soundtrack is pretty good as well.

Well done!

Also, when you open the door, the enemy either spawns or is already there at the door and it hits you which is really frustrating :)

I like this a lot. Really good atmosphere.
Downside being the random generation putting spikes in really unfair places. If you get hurt, it should be your own fault, or you should at least see it coming.

The concept sounds nice and the game looks good but it seems to have a lot of bugs. It's didn't seem very well optimized for my computer and I guess the drop in FPS made it easy for me to clip out of bounds. Especially after getting the speed boost. I'd like to play a finished version of this though so keep at it.

Very nice tiny dungeon, and an impressive amount of work for a short amount of time. I think I found a glitch where I could walk though walls after getting the super or double jump powerup, but I still made it to the end door. Good stuff!
