I see version 2 is out! Giving it a try, so I can finally see what the game really looks like. :)
Semi-on-the-fly observations:
This may be just me and you want to confirm this with another playtester, but I find those archers EXTREMELY HARD to defeat: you keep getting hits when you go to close combat, since you cannot have a shield at the same time as you have a weapon, and the bow only allows you to shoot ONE arrow! I think the fight would be more balanced if we could take more shots from a distance, or had an easier way to stop/avoid the enemy arrows.
I may try getting further, but for now, I really feel there is a difficulty balance issue. Once again, I may be a poor player. XD (… I think I am not that poor of a player, but hey, you always have to question yourself.)
Hey there, thanks so much for the feedback! We were just testing out a patching pipeline and we've got some more updates in the works soon, we'll take your thoughts into account!
I'm looking forward to the full version!
Couldn't get past the intro area either. Could have really benefitted from a little explanation somewhere!
The fact that you let a placeholder white-greyish disc as the player reminds me of how I roll myself. XD (Anecdote: for my first game jam, I had let it until not long before submitting. That was La Faim d’Elvis.)
As per DABUOYS, I am stuck right at the first Eastern wall… ._. I notice you can dash with space and click-hold on a 1-die button that spawns around the hero, but how to get past?
Advice: you have the right to put explanations in the game page and comments here; I highly recommend you did, so that we can progress in your game and test it thoroughly! I would rather wait for this than cast any uninformed vote (I have absolutely not seen enough to form a relevant opinion).
I could not figure out how to get past the intro area. Like Cowdipper said, some tutorial or how to play would have been extremely helpful!
Instructions would be pretty useful
