Thanks for the elaborated review, that helps a lot! Did you know you can click on stars of boss before battle to alter their power? That is the second mechanic in game (apart from inventory managment) and IMHO it represents theme Balance effectively cause you have to balance the boss's power with yours before entering the fight. I just got the idea that you missed that, because we haven't managed to add tutorial.
Hey no problem! I was aware of that second mechanic. I just felt that the inventory management was a lot more front and center. I agree that tutorializing this mechanic and helping the player understand how it works would be a plus. As it was I didn't understand how it worked so I didn't think much about it. I will try it out more on some replays, thanks!
