Got into the mines, got the dwarf with me. At some point he seemed to pick up a robe, which is neat.
Eventually clearing the mines aimlessly got me low on health so I went back to the town. There I tried to buy potions, which felt really hard. They also cost more than I thought they would from the tooltip. Then I lost some more gold trying to pick up a leather armor and dropping it again.
I also couldn't figure out how to equip my lightning skill.
I would have enjoyed if the game dangled a carrot of telling me when to leave so I could go back to town to buy sick loot or something.

Thanks for playing and the feedback!
Do you mean the dwarf went to a robe and picked it up himself (bug), or you clicked a robe and he put it on (no bug)?
Will try to improve the menus/tooltips/intuitiveness. Maybe i put skills directly into a free slot when learned. I assumed the player knows PoE and similar games, where you click the skill slot on the bottom bar to select skills. Maybe i need some easy to skip tutorial hints?

Maybe quest rewards? The dialogue is currently very simple and barebones, maybe that can improve to give the player some ideas.
I actually equipped my own robe and was surprised to find the dwarf wearing one later one. So either a bug or I somehow accidentally added it to him, I don't know if that's possible.
For the record though I am not familiar with POE and my experience with these games is promising to play TOK someday and 20 minutes of diablo 2 remastered.
