Thank you so much for the detailed feedback! It is very important to understand what works and what doesn't so I can apply these lessons to future updates and new games.
I completely understand your point about the biome resets and the 'empty time' waiting in the late game, that is a very valid critique on pacing and balance. Regarding the victory screens, the goal was to be mysterious, but I can see how it came across as confusing. There are actually two distinct endings to discover!
I'm really glad you enjoyed the dual skill trees and the overall balance. A lot of hours went into this solo project, and your comment makes it all worth it. Thanks for playing!
