Especially like the spinning and crouching art for some reason. Quite an odd combination of games but I guess it somehow works.

I think this was a very clever blend of two genres and your dialog plays to it masterfully.  Your graphics, sounds, and mechanics all play together quite nicely as well.

The level design wasn't tho, like really not O_O\". Also the extreme repition of the same tile was a bit offputting even if most of the art was fine.\n\nIt felt a bit empty at the beginning without any music or sound effects. The music once it started was fine but the sfx was a bit loud and annoying.\n\nThe minigames were cool and it's neat you managed to build them, but the main gameplay wasn't great, like okay but nothing mind blowing. However including a platformer part with the current state of the controls was truly evil.\n\nToo bad you didn't have time to finish, the intrigue had some potential.
