sorry my comment took forever to get approved. If I remember correctly I got another item and it saved over it. Either way, thoroughly enjoyed your game! The artwork was very good!

Thanks so much yeah I planned it to override so like a risk reward mechanic but badly explained in my game and docs. Basically if you want to save the Hobo or the Sacrafice you forgo a slot for each - making it much harder to survive.
If you wait on the item screen you leave it after a few secs, if you didn't want to pick it up. I need to make these mechanics more clear thanks for the feedback!
