  • The music and the art were done quite nicely (and I can appreciate when I'm able to adjust the volume settings as well). I would also say that even though the combat was a bit odd; using WASD and the arrow keys, but they're meant for different things was interesting, though I picked up on it quick enough. However, I didn't really grasp how the combat or going through each room, defeating enemies and apparently looking for items tied back into both themes. I didn't really interpret the use of shadow nor alchemy at all, so I'm wondering how this would've fit into the game as a whole. Even though this was how I felt my experience went while playing, do keep up the hard work.
  • I can see how shadow plays into the gameplay, but I dont understand how alchemy plays in here? Also I tried to attack, but couldnt. Am I missing some details?

Really loved the visuals, especially the thumbnail art! Gameplay was simple, fun and well implemented. Great job!

Simple and quick, but fun. I really like the music. The game quits for some reason, but I liked what I saw.
