Overall: A strong start with some great art and a very promising story. Something like this with more time spent on lore and character building could be a real winner.
Gameplay: I'm feeling a little restricted in the overworld. No items or running?! Battles were straightforward enough, but I ended up running from most of the random encounters and they really didn't affect how I performed in the boss battles. The final boss actually could have been a little tougher! Sparking was the game changer for me with that crazy DoT.
Music: I know this has been an issue but the knockoff Lamb of God battle music actually got a laugh out of me. Towards the end I actually started to vibe with it!
Graphics: Great art all around! Loved your sprites both in the overworld and during dialogue. Only thing is I wish the blue crystals stuck out a little more. I'd miss them from time to time which cost me dearly.
Story: Some pretty cool worldbuilding going on in Terrortalon Isle. Love how all the enemies are based on fears. The big thing is it felt a little fast! I really wish this game took a little more time to really dive into the lore of the island and the relationships between the characters. It had a very interesting premise that could have been explored a lot more in-depth. Also just a bit edgy.
Comedy: I told you in RBT a low comedy score isn't the end of the world, but regardless David bumped that score up for me.
