I played around 15 mins and I'm loving the atmosphere and the challenge,
I found some small issues though:
- I always get stuck on the upper ledges of the bridges,
-I find that the effect when being hit is a bit exagerated.
- I sometimes confuse the indication of someone holding a shield with an arc.
- It's not obvious for someone playing for the first time to notice that the game is still running when the inventory is opened.
Hey, thanks for the feedback! We will keep your suggestions in mind for updates and future games. A couple of quick clarifying questions:
When you say upper ledges of the bridges, do you mean where the bridge connects to the landmass?
Do you dislike all the hit effects, or just when the player character is hit?
As for the shields, we did struggle a bit to come up with a way of communicating clearly that a character is blocking at the low resolution, and the little arcs was the best we came up with. If you have an idea about how to do it better, we'd love to hear it!
Thanks again for playing, and we hope you continue to enjoy the game! Cheers :)

Yes, It feels like you can pass but get blocked instead:
Do you dislike all the hit effects, or just when the player character is hit?just when the player is hit.
As for the shields?
Maybe a shape of a shield around the character with low opacity.
