May I ask what build you're playing on? Is it version (1.0 SFX Fix 2)?
Ah yee! That one was my bad, my apologies! Fix 2 should take care of any crashes but definitely let me know if anything else happens!
As for the difficulty, have you used any of your Oblivion Shards to have The Witch make you some earrings or to unlock the Mystic class? Those might help make your runs a bit easier.
I did get the divine earring, but I realized after I can't pick up more shards with that equipped. also now after installing the new version I managed to beat the crowned pudding boss. also just out of curiosity: is this game gonna have cg's or something in the future or is it not that kind of game? since there's pretty suggestive themes.
Okey dokey, as long as you're having fun making this game. i'll definitely keep playing it and looking forward to more updates in the future. don't forget to have fun learning game development skills, not all people are gifted to be a game developer. because you definitely have potential, Good job and keep it up.
