I wish I could see more of the surrounding area to appreciate your randomized maps, but I do like that it feels like you're lost in a labyrinth with it being so dark. I find myself hugging the walls in every room to help guide me places.
I didn't really get the increased health situation, it seemed like it would swap between starting with 6 health, to starting with 3 health, to starting with 8 health. I never went over 8.
