Opening doors again and again surely ruins the fun (you could make it simplier, at least). The desing was confusing at start but felt quite lamp-ish and involving later. Nice concept!

Thank you for the feedback! There’s definitely a bunch of stuff I would have done differently with more time/experience, like items use and combination.
Spoilers I guess:
The ending is just kind of a cheeky way to show what the main character (and the player) discovers in the throne room, and explains how do they already know some stuff about the place and puzzles (and how they are able to see the mechanism of the spike traps behind a solid wall).

Glad that you like it!
Yeah as a first time with Godot I didn’t really now how to deal with resolutions and stuff, so I stuck with a 1080p window (should have gone lower probably)
Interesting that you were able to skip some puzzles, did you do anything specific or just entered the room and collected the pickaxe? I’ll look into it.
Yeah the “sort of” start over is the end, there’s only a difference connected to what happens at the end, considering the time I made it like a prologue for a bigger game/story.

I've updated the game to scale with the window size, not it should be playable even on lower resolutions (it will still start as a 1080p window I think, but I can be resized down after)

Thank you for the feedback!
I still have to find time to fix the crash, really sorry about it.
The only workaround I’ve found for now is to be slower with the inputs, trying not to drag when clicking on interactable stuff.
I’ll fix it as soon as I can, but I’m really glad you like it even considering the issue!
hey, tried playing but got this error1 year ago(+1)
Fixed it!
I'm really sorry for the inconvenience, it's my first time with Godot and I didn't notice the .pck file that was generated.
