I'd be honored! I'd love to play a finished version of this, because it gives me a lot of what I'd like from a grindy browser RPG:
- Simple grind-a-thon with a smooth learning curve
- Doesn't force me to talk to 8 different NPCs before getting into the main gameloop
- Memorable enemy encounters that teach me quickly when fighting is worth it over fleeing.
- A very direct way to upgrade my character stats
Reminds me of the fun I had playing games like Dragon Warrior back in the day. The dour, blighted setting also feels like it's leaning into (and perhaps commenting on) the theme of consolidating power, so grinding feels like I'm playing into the theme rather than simply soulless grinding.
