Sometimes it's something as simple as a pause screen that can bring joy.

Leif, an anthropomorphized tree-person, stands on teal grass, before a large sacred tree, with a twisting trunk, canopy extending beyond the rock walls bordering the image, and with vines drooping down from above, all in the 8-bit pixel art of a game boy color game

A Sacred tree, in need of protection...

You can now get the charge shot as a powerup, but not without a price...

And now for one of the other balls I'm juggling, implemented some new enemies more fitting to the theme of this forest level, designed/drawn by my nephew (the artist for this project), which are just ridiculously cute!
