Great character art. I saw you talk about how you did it in the discord and it was a clever idea that paid off. It's the most traditional dungeon crawler of the ones I've played so far, which was a nice change of pace. The UI looked great, although I think the text box would have benefitted from being narrower on the screen.

I did encounter a few bugs:

  • The gear description gets stuck on screen if you close the gear menu with the keyboard while hovering over it with the mouse.
  • The game doesn't like it if you load a game when you don't have one saved.
  • I think I got softlocked by first talking to the oracle about the 8-legged beast after defeating it. When I went back to talk again, I just got prompts about asking where to find it, even after I defeated both it and the necromancer. It's also possible that I just skimmed past where I was supposed to go. (Looking at the save data, it seems like I had the event flags [5,9,6,7,12,13]).

The combat felt a bit on the easy side, except for the necromancer which I felt like I got lucky to beat, although looking at the preview screenshots I clearly didn't explore well enough, so maybe that was on me. I would've liked to see the damage/chance to hit impact of choosing the heavy attack/careful strike, as that might have changed how I fought in some battles.

All in all I had a fun time with it. I could see myself coming back around to it once I rate some of the other jam games.

Your feedback is absolutely heroic, thank you so much for taking the time to write all of this! Good find with the gear bug and the load game issues, I didn't know about either of those. As for the soft lock with the Oracle, that's really more a "game developer ran out of content so the Oracle always says that" kind of situation :)

You're right on the combat. I did a last minute playtest before submitting, saw it was way too hard, and then scrambled to drop all the monster stats. I never got to play the final version (big fail I know!) and I'm sad about how easy it is. One thing - did you find the spider caves on both the light and dark side? Dark spider is a bit tougher.

Ah, yeah, time constraints are definitely understandable. Just wanted to make sure that I didn't manage to find some weird bug.

As for the spider caves, I didn't find both of them! That's something to check out when I roam around again.
