Managed to reach deeper into the Dark Forest and defeated a big monster there but then nothing seemed to happen? Wasn't sure if that was the boss but it was in a large room. Overall it looks good and I like the soundtrack tho there was a bug where the boss music and dungeon was playing at the same time. Some more polish and tightening of mechanics would improve it but overall I enjoyed it. Nice one

Yeah it wasn't quite finished. We wanted to do a bit more. But I appreciate you critiquing the game mate :D

What is this game? How do I play it?

Dryad Quest DX is an action game/dungeon crawler inspired by the old-school Zelda games. There are 3 areas to explore, and 2 bosses to defeat. Fight your way through the levels, always remembering to heal up on the circles found on the ground. 

 Firstly, you will need to go EAST to beat Shrub-Niggurath, and become able to pass through all of the purple squares. Then you go WEST, and through the Dark Forest to face the Wendigo Knight.

Thank you for playing the game!
