Recreated the first simple puzzle room I ever made for BtK. I still like it... and I still love shrubs! Gives deadly exploration a little of that good ol' holiday cheer.

2) goofing around with the first subweapon (bombs)

Getting all riled up about these huge gameplay updates. (details in replies!) Still hoping for a public demo very soon, stay tuned! #metoidvania #indieDev #pixelArt #videoGames
