Oh wow thanks for the in-depth review :)
The bugs are somewhat weird. I think one level right now destroys the web version completely, maybe you stumbled into it?
Very cool that you found a way to beat those bandits with your shield. I have long ago abandoned it for arrows or just plainly entering god mode ;) They are supposed to be very tough to beat yeah and there are many more options to fight enemies down the line.
To your Wishlist:
- I love the ambiance and atmosphere of games like Darkest Dungeon and the first Dark souls but this game is not intended to be totally grimdark or anything. It's sullen at times but not depressing. My art style is not really congruent with darker settings anyhow
- Music and SFX is the big problem at the moment and you are very right that there needs to be more of it in the game. Some sounds are just funny stand-ins I found and use but most stuff is just mute. I guess that's where your services come into play?
- What do you mean exactly with custom-tailored assets? If it's about changing the graphics of the playable character then it's a no-go for me personally, way too much work lol
- More VFX would be really cool and I am tinkering around with it, but I lack most skill necessary for it. It's hard to make effects that work with the art style I'm working with so it's a lower list issue at the moment
