Then it quickly became apparent that it was a game mechanic. Really clever! I love it! I found that fighting the jelly crabs was a little frustrating because they were able to jump so quickly. I also noticed that it looked like the dungeon layouts might have been procedural?

You've got a solid working gameplay loop (unlock doors and chests while not dying to proceed), but I think starting with any weapon, even a weak one would go a long way to make the game more instantly engaging. I spent almost the entire first level without a weapon. I think with a little more enemy variety and a little progression adjusting though, you could have something really great!
