Known Issues

  • An out of bounds crash can happen with enemy projectiles. This is most notable near the bottom of the vertical dark cave with the slime that hurls balls around; if the ball travels too far down the chasm, there's a chance it will crash the game.
  • An error in how palettes are outputted will result in the colours appearing slightly brighter on the screen for the duration of the jam.

I like the concept! The gameplay is very enjoyable. My only suggestion is don't use the "z" and "x" keys. Instead you should use Right Ctrl and Space or something like that.
