Thank you! There are definitely issues; I would love to hear what you felt made combat feel bad. For alchemy, you have to select a body part, then select it again to toggle allocation. Could be clearer, for sure. Thanks for the feedback :)

My main issue with combat was the lack of feedback. Because the enemies lack any kind of flinch animation or pain grunt, anything of that sort, combat just becomes about circle strafing and chipping down a health bar, which takes a while because they're pretty tanky. I found myself just running past enemies later on. It can also be hard to dodge attacks since there's very little telegraphing in sound or animation, which made especially the duelist class hard to play with its parry.
On a positive note I loved all the classes and weapons! The animations are simple but really charming. It makes the game feel retro in a great way. I'll try playing through the game again and see if I can figure out magic. That might improve the combat a bit too.
