Great graphics! Solid game.
You had me with the intro. Super cute and nicely drawn :) I felt a bit lost in the game though. It plays nicely but I didn't know what the goal would be. The bats were super hard to kill. When using a ladder sometimes you would come out directly on top of an enemy. Hard to survive that way :) Anyway, it was fun!
It's a really cool adventure-like game. I like the stylistic appearance of it, and it's cool to see a fellow lover! I think the game just needed some better presentation.
The lack of background music kind of hindered the mood, and I think if the intro was a series of pictures that changed, it would have been easier to follow/feel more natural than a long moving strip.
As said, the point of the game wasn't directly clear as well. An instructions screen (or even better yet, showing the instructions in-game) while giving some background info to the game would have been nice. That would have stopped me from asking questions like "who am I?" "what am I trying to do?". I can see these were supposed to be answered by the intro but I didn't really interpret much.
Overall very solid effort! Good job!
