I agree that I really like the secondary theme interpretation. I feel like the basic concept is exactly on point with the themes of nostalgia that is gamboy+old gold. And the mood + story fit right in with that.
Also the art is amazing, it feels really authentic and alive, there are so many seemless details that make it gorgeous, congrats !
I just didn't get the s+k binding for the shield (why not just k ?), I have an AZERTY keyboard and the game has binding on virtual keys not physical ones so I can play with WASD (ZQSD for me) so I have to play with arrows and arrows + S + K is pretty much impossible.

Thank you so much for your comment! <3 We put a lot of effort into making the game look and feel as polished and beautiful as we could within the jam time, so we’re really happy you enjoyed the art and atmosphere.
And sorry about the controls! We originally planned to add more abilities using the K key, which is why the shield ended up with that combination, but we didn’t have enough time to rethink and polish the control scheme before submitting.
We’ll definitely keep your AZERTY keyboard feedback in mind when we improve the controls in the future. Thanks again! <3
