Overall a really nice experience, enjoyed the game, slayed the Crustacean!!

The combat felt nice, the lantern gimmick was cool, altought I feel like the sounds balance on flaming objects (or the hurt sound) was a bit unbalanced and too loud! (also their is a weird clipping sound at the end of the jump vfx)

Stages and sprites look nice, I just wish for a bit more action on a few of them. With a little tinkering, more stages and enemy variety I could see this as a nice little adventure game down the line! Well done!
