How... how do you even beat it!?

You're right, I had a limited canvas and didn't plan ahead as I was making it, so it feels crowded.

I was thinking about redoing it with proper spacing and a vivid background, think I'll get it it soon!

 The sprites themselves are all nice, but the layout irks me. They seem way too close to the dragon (just visually, not talking hypothetical safe-dragon-distance), and all the characters seem randomly spaced out. I think adding some more space on the right, moving over the warrior folks, and evening out the spacing between each of them would help out the peice a lot
