So, Devtober is over and it's been quite productive! I've put together a postmortem on the itch.io page if you'd like to learn more about the journey: https://blackears.itch.io/dragon-down/devlog/309942/devtober-postmortem
I plan to keep working on the project. The main thing still to add is an item system. After that I'm going to be focusing on story telling.
Please check out the game and let me know what you think!
