Hey! Nice game! I’m curious to know if you considered using a hex grid rather than a square grid for combat? And how do you think a hex grid would change the game mechanics and combat strategies?
When you choose your starting equipment and rune, the ones that you didn't select are gone forever right? Or, if you can swap things out, is that only possible at a particular point? e.g. at the sigil, or after leaving/re-entering a realm?
I'm basically wondering whether I can respec this poor idiot of mine or if I'm better off starting fresh with a new engraved XD
PS - Just got lost in the game for hours there and it really did give that soulsy feel in ways that I really wasn't expecting! In particular, going into a fight that I tiptoed through before and wrecking all the enemies while having pretty much the exact same build/gear - that felt like actually getting to know enemy patterns in souls games. Awesome work!
Thanks so much for the quick reply! To be honest, I like the finality and hardcore approach - part of me really does want to see this character push through a bit more, so I'll persevere before 'starting a new save' XD
Ooh one more question if you don't mind: when you die/rest, only the fights are reset, correct? I'm wondering if search actions that yield consumable items are once-off, which my gut tells me they are.

My character has: Great Axe, Basic Shield, Strider Boots, and Fate's Hunter. Pretty slow and needs a lot of good rolls! 2 points of Lore but my max health is at 8 now for reasons I'm sure you know...absolutely getting wrecked by the harder enemies I met and kinda loving it. Thanks!
