I will start on the music this afternoon. What sort of tone do we want this music to have? Also I will make a version for Makecode but I’ll also post a link for a music making website where you might be able to import that to your game.

I think the music style could be kind of like Metroid. Or like the underground theme from super Mario.

I have an idea for a random generation system (link: [https://arcade.makecode.com/S47994-49402-97122-81105](https://arcade.makecode.com/S47994-49402-97122-81105) )

also you could add a tilemap change animation(in the over world extension) to make the tilemap change better. and use “arcade sprite animations” to make your character change direction. I would also recommend making your own tiles, and changing the color pallete so you can have colors who fit your game better
