Cool concept! I liked the creature design and battle system. The only issue I saw was in the inventory menu when you hover over items on the left side of your inventory it goes outside of the screen so you can't read what it does.
Really cool concept! Intro text went by a bit too quickly to read, I had to restart to catch it. I accidentally made a bunch of omelets out of my eggs, which apparently do nothing for me, so I got a bit stuck :(. I think I was about to win, as I was backtracking to the one Spiderwolf I'd left alive when apparently I died of hunger, despite a backpack full of broccoli, but that tracks with my behavior in real life, so I'll take it. The monsters looked great, really cool combinations!
I think I did most content. I killed everything I could find and cooked all recipes. Also found the infinite glitch from the chests. It is a cool and different take on a dungeon crawler and I liked it. May have preferred to have a base area where I had to go back to and cook over a fire or similar, and then try to get deeper and deeper into the dungeon. And surely having a blunt pan attack should be a must in all games...
The claw cassarole seems to have a blank image in the inventory.
Nice done!
Thanks for taking the time to play and explore all the content! I wasn't aware of any glitch with the treasure chests so you might have found a new bug 🐞Seems like you also found an issue with the casserole which is unfortunate. 🙃
I agree that a base area to cook at would be a nice touch, and it was something I wanted to include in the game. I honestly just couldn't figure out how in the time limit so I made it easier to cook anywhere in the dungeon. In the future I will definitely add cooking stations throughout the dungeon, with maybe an extra bonus for meals cooked at different cooking stations. Just a thought.
