Ah, the sounds and soundtrack definitely adds a lot to the game!

I love graphics and music of this game. The gameplay is a bit repetitive though.
It's the beginning of something lovely. The aesthetics and feel are top-notch.
A little more player guidance would be helpful. I got through the first door then wandered aimlessly for a few minutes (it didn't make sense to me that the way I got through one door didn't work on the others). Then a creature dropped a new recipe on death for a blue potion seemingly at random. I had to spend five minutes grinding to get enough grey squares to craft it then I used it in a location that I thought it might help at, only to find out that it didn't and I had a time limit to do something that I wasn't sure of. I turned it off in frustration after that because I couldn't face grinding for grey squares again.
HOWEVER - I did love it when I felt like I was really playing the game and making progress. One of my favourites so far. The reason I moan a little above is to give you some useful feedback because I'd love to play a finished version.
Adam Pajor: Yes, I already have the music done, here's one sneak peek: https://soundcloud.com/martincohen/low-rez-quest
elFlashor: You can, that thing is badly designed on my end. A little hint: all items you can craft have a meaning in the game, and has to be used at right place.
This is really cool! For some reason, it's pretty satisfying. Too bad about the lack of sounds, but in overall, nice game! Will it be improved in any ways after the jam?
Very nice game!
I like the overall feeling, the attack is very satisfying! I'm blocked after having opened the first door though, I guess you can't open the others... yet?
