A definitely interesting game! The visuals and the sound effects were great, the creativity on display is super engaging, the concept of what you're going for is great. Unfortunately, the main issue I've run into is that I really quickly lose all direction. Like, sure my goal is to kill my shadow but I don't even have a clue as to how. I tried combining all the herbs I could, finding unique combos and what not but it was hard to track what I'd already combined already, and then I just. ran out of places to go, and my interest to keep playing dropped.
A bit more of a push, a stronger clue as to what I'm looking for, any amount of recognition that I'm making progress, and it would've sealed this as a really powerful and engaging experience for me.
Also, Fortuna isn't really that helpful. Like, it technically helps but especially on higher difficulty rolls it just feels like a waste. Only time I'd think to use it is if I somehow missed a low difficulty roll. The others were cool though.
