cool little game, items are currently overpowered. Very nice character art!
Music was well choosen and I had fun.
I would invert the item selection slot system, rather have the one highlighted where the item fits in.
Would be cool to have multiple build possibilitys, the usual stuff, like block, poison and fire dmg, fast attack, vampire etc.
Currently the items are so overpowered that you basically need to play very bad, to loose.
Regarding the theme of mutation, it is not so strong, only the smithing part.
