Oh man, beautifully drawn, but, at least for me, reversing the usual level-up mechanic is very frustrating. I feel like I am missing a trick in Part 2 of the game, is there an option to not fight?

In part 2, make sure to regularly backtrack so you can get the guys sneaking up on you from behind and avoid a two-front battle.

I'm not going to give you any hints about the bosses!

Blah^3, I found the key to part 2 is to move a little forward until you see baddies behind you. Then run at them and fight before you mess with the ones in front. That way it's only 1 or 2 at a time.

The drunk strongman was a great touch.

SPOILER: I got a dog!

The drawing is wonderful, but I'm having trouble getting the keys to work right. My arrow keys seem to not actually do anything!

I just refreshed and that seemed to fix it.
