First I was stabbing the golem like hundreds of times, but I even not know that the black middle area was a pit... Then I realized the goal when fall into there and has read the text, and then tried again. Kinda cool backstory, but i wonder is there an another way to break the curse than jump in the void, lol. Maybe it will be revealed in the next part...
I still like the style and colors, and the simple graphic style and the mysterious atmosphere. Using sword would be more stylish and polished, and the the right feedback from the hits would be nice add (bosses unvulnerable effect or something like that). While the game is story based i would like to see more graphic details. Still nice game though and fine implementation.
