I love the concept and execution of this game! Thanks for compiling a Linux version too. :)

I have a few suggestions:

The title screen really needs some polishing.
- You can't press spacebar to start the menu when it's displaying the credits, so you have to sit there and wait or restart the game.
- It would be nice if you could use the mouse or keyboard or controller at any point instead of only the keyboard for spacebar then only the mouse to click a button.
- It also doens't seem to handle differing aspect ratios, so everything looks squished on my screen. This seems carries over into the GUI in-game, but I think that might be more the low resolution of the sprites.

The gameplay is pretty damn solid, but a few issues:
- Would be helpful to have rebindable keys. I can't move with my Logitech F310 controller, so I have to use software to map it to the keyboard.
- There are occasional graphical glitches, especially when an enemy is stopped next to a trap it doesn't want to pass.
- The directional aiming doesn't exactly line up with where the mouse is; it's like the mouse is floating a few metres above the level of your guy. This is kind of tricky to get used to for weapons with ranged attacks.

Despite all that, it's a very enjoyable game and surprisingly replayable. Looking forward to future updates!
