Hi, this is a really cool idea! Kudos!

I though I'd show it to some children around me so I've just tried the demo and I think the "collision detection of sprite boundaries" will need some more love (will become especially annoying in fights/battles once enemies get implemented).

See the screenshot below where the door still can't be entered despite visually one would say it's definitely possible.

On the second screenshot the character can't go to the right even though it seems it should be possible. This one is quite annoying because this situation happens quite often if you go down the path to the "wall" and then back up and at the corner try to go to the right. It always fails - probably due to the size of one step the character makes which adds up to a certain position which seems already ok to go to the right at the corner, but it doesn't work yet 😢.

Generally I think the matchbox should actually be at least few pixels smaller than sprite itself. Because the whole crux of these problems lies within the mismatch between visualization and the actual behavior.

This is nothing urgent nor necessary per se, but it makes the look suddenly much more professional without adding much complexity IMHO.
