Fun and addicting game! Mowing down enemies is quite satisfying, and using specials to deal huge AOE damage is great. Also cool to pick up so much gear and get super strong. Controls were a bit overwhelming at first, but after a stage or two they sunk in I think, and I'm very bad at using keyboards for games. A few suggestions in case of future jams:
-Some features, like the materials gathering (wood, mining stuff) seems to have no use at all. I wasted a lot of time slicing trees and rocks, but with no actual point to it. In this case, less is more. Not having the cuttable trees would improve the gameplay.
-Similarly, gear builds up super fast. I kept a lot and was careful about what I threw away because I was anticipating selling it. But there was no shop anywhere. Something as simple as a potion exchange in the fortress would have given me a chance to unload my gear.
-There were suggested levels for the stages, but I didn't see any visible levels. Was this not a feature added yet? If so, those level prompts could have been removed.
-I was expecting a longer game due to the visible stages later on, so I rushed some parts. Taking those out would have provided a better idea of game length.
So basically, if there were a few things removed from the game, it would have been perfect for the jam.
