This is an amazing little game! I have two notes though.
1. The level selection screen is very confusing. There are no visual ques to tell the player what he is selecting which frustrated me a bit because I wanted to play 1 level in particular and couldnt find it.
2. The Z button needs some visual ques as well. Like half of the time I would press it and it wouldnt work because I was pressing arrow key before Z. You could add like an arrow to tell the player once they release the Z key an action will be made.
I really liked this game as well as your other stuff. Have you ever thought about making a game/creating pixel art for a real retro console (NES, GBA, Mega Drive, etc.)? There are even retrodevelopment jams on itch.io, for instance: https://itch.io/jam/gbcompo21
Had a ton of fun checking out this game! Cool little concept, and super impressive given the requirements of the game jam. Cute little game with an awesome feel to it that throws me back to when I first started playing video games years ago :P Feel free to check out my video on Umbri below!
This is quite enjoyable and looks really good. The only thing I'd suggest is adding the controls to the description as it took me ages to work out how to change the characters orientation. It's easy once you get the hang of it - but it wasn't something that can be easily worked out.

Hey, I got all the stars! Is there not a third world? :'(
A game in 64x64 resolution and yet 32bit style colors and such beautiful music!!
I need more of this. I would love a full metroidvania like this.
This game is very visually pleasing
Woah ! Great game !

Overall love the art and gameplay! Keep it up.

My favourite detail is the purification effect. Would be great if there also was a downloadable version for offline play.
<3 <3 i'm still wowed by this~
Just awesome. Perfect concept for 64².
Incredibly good, man!

Just restarted the game. Totally didn't see the controls menu :)
Still - I think it'd be worth making it more prominent as I don't know many gamers who read controls until they need them.
