Love the character designs, graphics, animations, particles. The gameplay is interesting, but waiting for each movement is painful. Having an option to speed up the movement animation to be many times faster would really help. Also a small, simple 1st level would ease players into things.

I like how you invested time to think about the design and the gameplay. Quite impressive you managed to pack this into 13kb 

thx :)
