I'm really addicted to this game. I've been playing it since the last two jams and I have to say that I always end up rage quitting, just to keep trying it some minutes later lol. Maybe I'm playing it wrong but I'll tell you my experience with your game:

I don't use the items most of the time for three reasons:

  1. Most of the time I challenge myself to fight without them.
  2. I'm saving them to use them with the boss.
  3. Even when I want to use them, there's not enough time to check the items that I have or where they are.

I've been trying to use them more consciously but I'm still losing lol.

Also, when choosing one of three rewards, they don't always show the description of the item.

Thanks for playing! Learning to use the items liberally is definitely a big part of the learning curve, even I tend to hoard them a bit. However, I think it's wrong to hoard them because the rewards shower you with a lot of items and I always end up with more than I can use. Also, the only thing you can spend gold on right now is more items. Eventually I'll do some kind of tutorial that explains how all the items are used and when to use them and hopefully that helps.

I think in the first floor you can survive without using any items and build them up but my design philosophy is that you have to be using them to survive the more difficult fights.

The stopwatch is a cheap item that you can use to pause fights and even rearrange your inventory. Again, not really explained atm so you kinda have to just know about it.

Who are the most rage inducing enemies?

Thanks again, I still have a lot to work on. I hope you check it out again in the future

I think I'll try with spells now. Another reason for me saving items is loss aversion, that cognitive bias heavily influence how I play lol: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_aversion

I played it some more and it's not a particular enemy, is because when there's almost no space left, there's no time to move to left/right because of the delay, and the rest of the pieces just get stacked almost immediately.
