Brutally difficult! Made it to level 4 once on a good run, felt very dependent on the RNG. Ran out of arrows against the spiders and just got mauled by a pack I had to approach. Being forced to walk into tiles you can't see or running out of arrows and getting slapped by a snake feels so, so bad haha. Nice game progression. See below for some impossible RNG!

That is a bad RNG situation for sure. The only possible way out I can see is to step up left behind that tree out of sight of at least 2 of the jaguar. They only head towards you if they can see you, otherwise they move randomly. I think one source of RNG dependency is that each level is filled with enough creatures to reach an xp target, but it doesn't take into account how much space is on the level, so more compact levels are much tougher to get through. thanks for playing!
