whoops, looks like i haven't updated here in a while.
in answer to your question: every door you pass through is also counted as a save point, so yes there is one pretty close to that area :3
i've been working a lot on the sewer tileset, and unfortunately decided to actually make every single element used in the game (which means i now have to animate... oh no), so that's been taking up some time. i freely admit i slacked off and didn't work on it for a whole month at least, though
you'll probably be seeing a tileset update and, if i can make them work, a couple of examples of characters/animals i'll be using. and more screenshots, hopefully???
