what a cool retro rpg! it's clear to see how much care and effort went into every bit of this game. it's a polished experience that feels authentically like the gameboy. i died in the 4 enemy encounters a lot unfortunately... why wouldn't my crewmates help me? rude. anyway, great game! you can be proud.

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it! 😄
The 4 enemies battle was actually meant to be one of the much later encounters in the zone once you’ve leveled up a bit! It slipped through the current build so it can really hose you early, unfortunately!
After the Jam ends, will probably update it so the hard encounters don’t happen until you pass a certain trigger or reach a certain level, smoothing out the difficulty curve a bit.
(the crewmates are pacifists who don’t or can’t fight; we wanted to give them something else to do to support you, but we ran out of time!)
