I finally got around to playing Dirk the Adventurer.
I think you nailed the presentation, I have no complaints on that front. The visuals, music and writing, it's all good.
The biggest problem with the game is general lack of polish. During my last playthrough I even crashed the game by examining a mushroom I stole from the beggar. Perhaps I deserved it for being so roguish, but I doubt it was intended.
Keep up the good work.
