I really want to like this. The graphics have a really pleasing aesthetic, the core gameplay loop is simple to grasp but still fun, but there's one little thing that totally destroys the whole experience. The collision. I simply can't have fun with this when every single time I died objectively wasn't my fault, but because of sticking to a wall or a floor. I can't really give this a fair review, because I can't really play it due to this. Everything apart from that is great, but that alone is honestly what ruins it.
This could really benefit from some checkpoints, or maybe something to prevent accidentally pressing S and permanently wasting a finite resource. Apart from that though, I like this one. The graphics are clean, the mechanics have a lot of potential (do wish the old man had any use though), and it's just a good, well-rounded game in general.
