hey great job! Really enjoyed it. Nice level design, music, use of the color theme.
My only feedback - on the map, have a fog of war mechanic. Instead of revealing everything, only show the area you’ve actually walked into. Or somehow differentiate it so you can know “I haven’t been here”
not that the game was difficult, I just think it makes exploration more fun.
