Hey! Just finished beating the troll! Figure I give some initial thoughts and some potential glitches. I'll make another post once I get to the end of the demo. 

  1. The game window for the windowed screen mode doesn't conform to the correct resolution, it seems. I can see the game leaking on to my second monitor. Had to play the game in full screen to avoid this issue.
  2. It appears the jump reaches the same height, no matter how long or how short it's held.
  3. Already mentioned this, but LOVE the atmosphere built up and the little environmental effects, such as when I run by a bush and it slightly shifts around. Are those all animated? Shader applied?
  4. Experienced one enemy falling through the map. It's the next enemy you see after acquiring the throwing axe.
  5. Enjoyed the initial fight with the troll. Excited to see what's gonna come next. 
  6. :[ I was really sad to see my level up got from 50 stamina to 51 stamina.
  7. I feel like adding some subtle footsteps to the playable character would really go the long way.

Thanks so much for checking it out and taking the time to give some feedback!

Some responses:

1) Were you running windowed at the resolution of your monitor and seeing the game be wider than it should have been?  What resolution? 

2) Thanks for the report, will take a look. 

3) Awesome to hear!  Since you've beaten the troll I hope you'll move at least to the next area, I think the presentation takes a pretty big step up there personally.    The moving foliage isn't a animated or a shader, it's a rendering trick where the vertices of the sprites are pulled when an object is in contact with them. 

4) This is actually a... feature.  Some enemies have the ability to leap long distances to the player to engage in combat and when they do so they ignore level geometry.    But It definitely presents as a bug a lot of time (I didn't say it was a GOOD feature) so I'll need to revisit this and either make it more polished or remove it. 

5) Again, awesome to hear!

6) Understandable, especially since stamina is so low to start!  Character leveling and attributes is a fairly new addition and I need to think more about how that curve will work.   Consider that "in progress"

7) Good suggestion!
