Nicely done! I really loved the setting within a glass bottle. Cool way to feel like it was a tiny world!

But I have to admit, the first thing I wanted to try was to jump out of the bottle opening, and the fact that I couldn't was a small heartbreak. 😅

Hey! Just finished my second playthrough, and thought it prudent to leave a comment. 

I've always found it difficult to give feedback and suggestions for a project such as this since I'm acutely aware of the harsh decisions and shortcuts that need to be taken to fit anything useful within such a ridiculous deadline. 

Let me start off by saying that the resulting game is an incredible achievement. Especially given the fact that it's not only a project as part of a University course, but also one with a very limited production cycle. 

That being said, there are a couple of points I think I could make, while still adhering to the strict timeline:

• Difficulty - It's very easy. I played through an entire run without dying on my first try, and I wouldn't call myself an ARPG-veteran. While a robust system of scaling difficulty can certainly be daunting, there are several cheap tricks you could take advantage of already.  For example, you're playing around with modifying stats when reaching the upgrade-runestone-thingie. It should be fairly straightforward to play around with damage, attack/movement speed, accuracy, and even health of the enemies to give an exponentially more terrifying experience. 
• Improperly scaled scenes - I've got a monitor with 2560x1440 resolution, and it looks like something really funky is going on with some scenes. Specifically loading into the main menu, cutscene, and credits. It looks like the canvas, or just the background + menu items don't stretch to my screen size. Instead, we get a lovely view of that classic Unity default scene in the background.

With that said, thank you for taking the time to read through my ramblings, and let me congratulate you all again for the terrific job! 

Looking forward to whatever you come up with next!

Good stuff! :) If you've got a plethora of controllers and a few friends handy, I recommend giving "Flatlined" a try. Think Overcooked with zombies. Same Designer as Last Rites too.

You got it! :) If you haven't done so already, check out Yrgo Game Programmer. You'll find all the games made by our fellow classmates there. 

Thank you for playing our game. :) We're glad you liked it! If you have any other thoughts, don't hesitate to contact us! 

Hi, Dylldophlo! To be completely honest, I did not know the itch-client was a thing at the time of uploading this project. I'll have a look and see if I can make an installer for our next update. :)

Hey, Cryptic! The Project Lead for Dyson here. Thank you for taking the time to try our game out, AND making a video of the experience. :D It gives us a good impression of how a player would approach the game, and rest assured that this will be of use to us in future projects!
