Sorry for the delayed responce, made a video a couple weeks ago but forgot to post it here or email because of the holidays. Really enjoyed the game! Its got a lot of promise and I very excited to see where it goes! It was super spooky, very dark (and im very afriad of the dark), and made me need to change my pants a few times through the game lol!

For the most part I had a very great time, all up until right befor ethe cathedral were theres that pit and the board you have to jump across. If you wind up dying before the next check point, and theres a fair chance you could, you wind up back at the beginning of the pit, but the board has fallen, making the way across again, EXTREMELY difficult! Tried several time to find the next ok spot to jump on and felt like i just got very lucky with it and if it wasnt for making a video I would have given up, althoguh i did give up at one point and just restarted from the very beginning again.

With all that, I feel like i wasnt very happy with the ending I got, didnt really feel like an ending and I expected to respawn at any moment, until I wound up at the menu. I know this has already been adressed and hope to see the save file implemented at some point or at least being able to respawn after an ending. I definitly want to try again at some point in the future for a better ending! Dont know if you got to watch the video yet, but I hope you enjoy!

Thank you for playing, your video and your feedback!

No worries, better late than never :)

I have watched your playthrough.

First of all, I’m truly sorry about the missing checkpoint. That was my mistake. It has already been addressed a few patches ago. The reason why the planks are falling into the hole, is because I don’t want players to backtrack all the way back to start (armory) after collecting the crown. Some players have actually done that in the past. They were confused and unable to finish the game. I’m glad you kept trying. I also have to admit it was a great jump you did. I didn't even think it was possible. So thumbs up.

Just to clarify, if you would have died to the lost souls, you would have respawned at the entrance to the cathedral.

The game ended because you were finished with the game. There isn't any more content to explore. You got that ending because you used the cursed blood. I could, as a developer, leave the stone door open (coffin room), but I don’t think that would do anything special, only to confuse the player about what to do next.

The torch was also bugged. It has been fixed.

I have tried tweaking the default brightness of the game also. I’ve had some complaints about it being too dark from others too. However I have some issues with Unity on the matter.

I do appreciate your feedback, however I’m a little sad to see, you didn't play one of the latest versions at the time. I have been working hard since the first release, fixing a lot of glitches like those you were experiencing above. But if your recording is older than that, please just forget what I just wrote.

A little pointer for you. I had trouble hearing the game audio in your video. You might want to increase the volume a little bit. Obviously, I know there’s random audio whispers in the game, and that’s why you suddenly get interrupted from time to time, but I don’t think your viewers do. Just keep that in mind :)

Other than that, great content. I had fun watching. I guess I owe you a new pair of pants :D

Keep it up.

Cheers
