    • “The visuals are pixel art beautiful with a lot of details, and the music makes me relax while playing.”
    • “The soundtrack is a banger; it didn't sound like just one looped track to me. It sounded like there were a bunch of different songs. If it was one track, it was really well done regardless.”

The game has a ton of quality of life features, such as being able to shut the gate behind you and ways to farm additional gold if you choose to explore hidden things. The chest mini-game was pretty dope.”
