I’m quite late to play but I was curious to come back and check out the judges’ top pick eventually!
Very robust Dungeon Crawler gameplay fundamentals. A bit on the easy side, and equipment quality ramps up unexpectedly fast, but that was appreciated for packing a full experience into a short jam game. Your endgame twist was very cool – I didn’t expect all that extra content in the last couple minutes, including the outdoor map. It made me a lot more invested in your story/world, too.
I found a coin item that said it raised my strength by 5, but I never did figure out how to use it. It wouldn’t equip to any slots and when I passed it between characters, their stats didn’t change. I wonder what that was about…?
Congratulations and best of luck with your next game.
Thank you for playing my game and giving feedback! I am glad you liked it. :) Don't worry about the coin, or the items in general. Its pretty random, haha. The coin is not of a class which can be used into one of the slots. ;)
This is a truly fantastic entry, from all points of view. You did everything well in this, from the atmosphere to the old-school gameplay and inspiration, to the theme implementation (I was wondering where the duality comes in right before I approached the altar haha).
Really enjoyed this one quite a lot, it's one of the strongest entries in the jam.
Thank you very much! I am glad you liked it. :)
Yeah unfortunately the theme twist comes in a bit late, but I hope its worth it, haha.
