Hello il signor M!
The version currently available here is a reasonably odd build of the game. Since this build was uploaded, we went through Greenlight and are currently working toward a release of Lost Wing on Steam.
You'll be glad to hear that the risk/reward balance is much more finely honed now, and there are alternate ways to build up charge. On top of that, there has been a sizeable upgrade to the visuals and there are additional zones and bosses now too.
Thanks for playing!
