Played it to the end! Awesome stuff. The guard mechanic is pretty bugged so I just pretended it didn't exist. Even after the panic button, any enemy movement would hard lock the game. 
The exert mechanic has some pretty great emergent strategies.  I found myself choosing attack + rest often. Then exerting all my points for movement to get in, fight then get back out. 
The equipment after combat was a little confusing but once you get it, it's easy. Would be nice to have an arrow tell you if it will increase or decrease min/max. 

Would love to see this game revisited after the jam. Tons of potential.
