This is a lovely little Metroidvania! Nice exploration use of atmospheric music too. I experienced a bit of lag in places which made the jumping seem less responsive at times. When I traveled back to the beginning (less complex graphically and musically) that went away. I got the best ending with 4/4 memories, though the brothers who kept the furnace going were counted as two while the spider's memory didn't count as one of them. Odd... Interesting touching on the ideas of death and acceptance. I'd love to see the Sprite have another even longer sojourn! :)
Nice. Like the movement. The story was a bit confusing, but overall very good.
