Cool how you can customize the character according to the characteristics! And I like such a visual, similar to the N64. Too bad it's short, I would play some more :)

I really like the depth of the character sheet, allows for some interesting ways to play and made me want to replay to see if I could do it in a different fashion. I felt that the vibe and overall feel was good. I did have a bit of a hard time seeing in the underground section. I don't know if I missed a torch or something. It would also be nice to have a bit of feedback audio. It was hard to tell if I was being attacked or what was going on around me. But I really enjoyed my time playing! Good game!

This game has astounding number of features, especially for a week of work! Sadly most of them are rarely used like inventory in my case (used it only to equip my dagger back). Movement feels kinda slow and there are some bugs like the fact that i could use medical items even when i had 0 of them but had them chosen (both medkit and moss). Overall really cool entry which has a lot of potential in its systems! Also duality here is nice (:

Hey, I checked your game :)

• I am impressed that you managed to submit the game like ~4 minutes before the deadline :D I would afraid myself to upload in such time, being a totally autistic guy :) I thought my ~2 hours were close to deadline :)
• I am glad that you somehow managed to make Godot "detecting" my inability to run Vulkan and instead run OpenGL 3; I've played some games where I had to start the game with additional params :)
• Lovely must and title screen. I so loved that you offered key binding and this amount of settings, not many games did that, including mine when I offered no options at all :D lovely!
• I so loved the introduction with all these little cutscenes and text, so atmospheric!
• Its great that you managed such a classic "create character" screen, very efficient and retro-looking graphic style :)
• I would love it better though if QE was turnin left-right from the start and S was simply moving backwards :) but that's nitpicking.
• sadly, the game crashed on me twice and actually hanged my PC, while exploring that forest :( I am using a low-end laptop these days, perhaps this is the reason but I didn't noticed something like that on other Godot games. But don't scratch your head too much on this, I am using older OSes and hardware in general so its not an issue :D
• liked the variety of objects in the forest, definitely added to the game
• nice atmosphere overall, I liked that brownish color that was matchingg the general theme :)

Overall, a nice and quite polished experience, although with some understandable bugs (at least for me :D) and great customization for a 7-day entry :)

Sometimes I would miss enemies, because they would be sideway to me and I guess my speed was too high for them to turn around? Was surprised by sudden damage taken from behind that way several times. They also had issues with light sometimes that wouldn't make sprite anything, but black outline - was bit hard to see in dark corners.

Would love some feedback on attack actually connecting - I wasn't even sure how far my ranged weapons could reach and decided to just rush melee to the end as a result. Worked better that way too!

There is also a bug of sorts that I was able to enter into cave mid wall section, I believe one of the enemies did the same - he suddenly appeared next to me in what looked like teleporting maner.

Mobs also moved towards me from 'main' room (I was regenerating in the corner), which made me miss that prompt about it being the final boss. I know its there, since I died first time by being reckless!

But overal - quite impressive that you managed to do whole stat system with inventory on top of it. Neat interface with bunch of interesting actions (like look around). Game is rough around the edges, but looks like it has a solid foundation to be something really nice indeed. I didn't find anything to destroy though! I wanted it so badly too, after reading all those stats :) Guess that is also for a future update... or i missed hidden wall somewhere (like I often do!).

I did it! I restored the balance!

Honestly the game has so much going on. A full stat system. Melee and ranged combat, a working inventory and so much more. I had to scrap/postpone most of this.

I have no idea how you squeezed that into 7 days but very well done. Are you planing on extending it?

Well done!

I put a lot of points into intelligence and then I just stabbed everyone to death. :D Thats interesting choice for a story, some kind of wood folk going on a murder spree against victorian hat-wearing wood-cutters. I probably missed some things, like interactions or what all the skills do, but in the end I was able to kill the master engineer with "aim" and then shooting him with a big shotgun. So I guess it worked out.

Its a very nice and ambitious game. The setting is interesting and the music is nice too. I like that you give quite some backstory with a nice intro and outro sequence which is really cool and allows me to get into the game better.

The environment is very varied, so it doesnt get boring. Fighting was a bit weird - I always took damage the same second I killed someone. I guess thats their final dying breath or something, haha.

Overall I enjoyed playing it a lot. Very interesting concept. :)

Well done with your entry. We had a few notes we took while playing that we hope you'll find useful:

• Nice AI start-up images. There was too much text initially which stopped you from getting into the game.
• Nice to be able to create your character  and you can still spend them in game which is handy in case you press OK to soon (as we did).
• The fonts were good, but... At one point there were three on a UI screen at once which was jarring. It felt like parts of the UI were done at different times by different people, each with their own font. We'd suggest keeping it to a single font or 2 at most and make the font functions be very distinct, like a UI font and an in-game message font. 
• The default controls don't have strafe, other than a single modifier or joystick. We'd suggest having individual left/right strafe keys. There was also no move backwards, on a rotate 180 degrees. The only downside here is that other games in the genre don't normally do this so you're fighting the muscle memory and expectations of the average player. 
• The in-game grid squares felt too small for a dungeon crawler, although this is a style choice. We got reprimanded for this last year! 🙄
• The commands are nice idea, e.g. Look, aim, wait but we felt we should have been able to click on the icon to activate them, not just the text.
• We didn't hear any sounds for footsteps, which was a shame. 
• Picking up items could have been using mouse click, rather than via the F key and then a click.
• UI items are really dark and hard to see when not active.
• Different color fog for different areas was nice, although the scenery was a bit dark in general which made it hard to see where you were.
• No indication of when you miss or hit an enemy or how much damage you were doing, other than them dying. 
• We seemed to die all of a sudden when no one was around and the game ended. Was this a bug?

Great job and good luck with the jam!

The dungeons are some of the more varied ones I've seen in the Jam.  Lot's of different enviromental elements.

The story is set up well; I really like all the cutscene art, and the theme of Nature vs. Industrialism.

The combat's a little tricky since you really have to rely on looking around so you aren't bum-rushed by a bunch of enemies.  I ended up putting a lot of points into HP on my winning run.

All in all, great entry!

So a good game.

The cave was too dark for my old eyes to see very well.

I also thing that the people watching the stream didn't see much.

Aren't elves supposed to have infravision? Or darkvision?

It hits all the points of the dc criteria.

Good job.

No I totally did not abuse using consumables with no unit left, that's not true. And on a more serious note I beat the game a second time and I actually didn't this time.

The atmosphere of the game is cool, even in such a short game you did kind of nail the theme you wanted to. The music is catchy too. I love traditional turn-based combat + resource management so obviously I enjoyed the game.

I love the highly stylized art / UI. Absolutely gorgeous game!

I loved the customization in this game, perhaps I’ll give it another play through later with a different build.

Absolutely enjoyed it. Great job on this entry!

I too spent all my points in strength, even reducing intelligence to 0 😅 That level of customization is awesome for a jam game, and the UI is really pretty. Nice work!

This was quite enjoyable! Got to the end, killed the engineer, saved the lands. Just went for a high strength  build that made me oneshot everyone with the dagger, haha. Aesthetic was super nice, cool mechanics, pretty involved for a one week jam! Good job!

This played very nice, almost got to the end but got killed by the boss. I particularly like the landscape graphics: highly stylized whilst also making it feel like a real place.

Ran fine in Wine on Linux, except that the audio sounded very 'clipped' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(audio)). No one else has mentioned this, so it is probably Wine's fault, and I won't down-rate for it.

My only criticism is that I felt disparity between the character creation style (very detailed and TTRPG like) and the combat style (real time with no visible game mechanics except health score and ammunition). It would be good to have some way of understanding how one's character stat choices affect events as they happen in real time.

Great game nonetheless!
