Thanks for playing to the end.
With the mysterious story I definitely threw it together to make something kind of fun. I actually have plans for a story that is inspired by games like Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, there just wasn't time for that.
I feel like I put way too much time into the inventory even if it did turn out cooler. I thought that if I didn't add levels of customizability when I uploaded to itch the aspect ratios of different monitors would break the scaling, but I'm pretty sure I was wrong about that.
