There also seemed to be some issues with the music not stopping or starting at the appropriate times, so I started the second perspective with the boss music still running (not that I'm complaining- it's really good music.) The gameplay is deceptively challenging, and there's a surprising amount of content here for something made in 48 hours. Overall, I enjoyed this experience quite a lot."},{"author_name":"evan100216","author_uid":"31938","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 3:54am","epoch":1387165740,"text":"Crashes instantly upon entering the overworld"},{"author_name":"Tyro","author_uid":"12708","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 4:05am","epoch":1387166400,"text":"Sorry about the crashing issues, folks. I've been playtesting for a bit myself and have gotten them as well. They're pretty much due to the lack of familiarity with the audio .dll I'm using.

It reminds me of Zelda in a way. Only problem is that the music cuts out at times (when you die and respawn, when you go underground). This game is also the longest here I've played so far. You could probably get several hours out of this.

The controls are a bit problematic if you have a german keyboard layout like me because the Y and Z Keys are swapped here and therefore X isn't next to Z.

I always try to program customizeable controls into my games but usually don't have enough time to make an interface for changing them. If you open the file in the game's directory that says 'Settings', try changing the value of 'Shoot' to 89.
