Nice use of backdrop and hidden terrain to make a feeling of inside and out. I like that you used spikes as decorations in some places. You definite nailed the desert temple, metroidvania type of vibe.
The armor was a nice way to make it easier for casual players. I’m glad you put a checkpoint in because I died near the end. I think you make good use of backtracking to force players to cover the same space multiple times.
I love the spike droppers in the beginning making the space feel trapped and dangerous without actually killing the player.Great casual, beginner friendly level overall.
