  • So I could tell that you had alchemical and shadow mechanics so I'll give you props for that, but I never really got a sense of what I was supposed to do in the game as there was no tutorial or direction given in the game, so I ended up feeling lost and confused. It felt like if I just knew what I was doing I would enjoy myself

Extra Notes
Sadly in the second week we where all sick and could not bring the game to where we wanted it but it is good enough and playable.

For me, the intro was long. I wish I could see what certain components do to the potion, how to brew good potion. Sometimes the aim is off and hard to hit enemies. Other than these it was fun to play.
