Looks great. I'll definitely get it. I'm still not sure where the Wonder Boy in Monster World and Zelda influence comes in, though. Is there backtracking? Dungeons? Replaying levels a la mega Man X or Mario style coin collecting or something? It just looks like a 2D action platformer in the videos. I have seen it has a DKC/SMW style overworld map, though.

It keeps looking better every time I've a video. Will get it at launch with the added side effect of supporting local game development.

There's a fox and it as multiple forest levels. Game seems to deliver on all its points.
Great pixelart look.

I remember somewhere that this was described as similar to Demon's Crest, so I'm in.

What does very European mean? It looks like Actraiser and Capcom SNES games to me.

I agree with him. It looks more like an Amiga platformer than a Japanese 16-bit platformer to me, though it still looks good for what it is.

Anyway, not to be confused with Seasons After Fall, an entirely different 2D indie platformer starring a fox with magic season-changing powers. Though the two at least have little else in common.

What makes something an Amiga platformer, though?

I got them confused for the longest time. Took the release of SAF to realize it.

We need more games like this. I've been keeping my eye out on this project for a few months now.
