I have two complaints, but other than those the game feels like the beginning of an absolute banger oldschool game!
Issue 1 is the fact that combat goes way to fast (sometimes even in a frame) and it is really hard to understand how it works, during the few times it does not skip. Maybe an explanation in the description? IDK.
“Issue” 2 is that forests on full HP seem irrelevant, as other than the small chance of finding something cool, they do nothing for you, which the other tile already does as well, and gives you money otherwise.
A small “YOU DIED” or soemthing screen that is skipabble with the one button would be also nice, cuz sometimes you can skip the fact if you are not paying that much attention.
With some expansion, refinement and sound effects, I can see a really cool game shaping out from this! Well done! Enjoyed my runs, died at level 27.
