I didn't want to sound too harsh, again i found the concept very cool and i'm intrigued, but its just to stressfull keep restart the game, im not very fond of rougue like games in general, i found the concept of "keep resetting!" quite annoyng.
By the way i have not read the comments in this section, i just saw some picture and a short video a friend of my suggested and i was already "count me in!"
ill' try to keep it short since i already made what i suppose is a boring text wall in my first post :)
Doors: i need to be DEAD center in order to hit them, few pixels off and im hitting the walls. and if the door is sideways, is even worst.
Dolls: yes i know that, but it happen with the FIRST doll you find on the ground on "casual" mode. I pick it up like usual, run on the second map, ignoring the left sides (the witch house ) cause i know there is another doll there and i con only pick one. Try to run past the tree, get stuck betwenn the bridge and water(thats why i found the slippery walk infiuriating) get killed and get a game over screen. Than i thought i needed to touch the totems or the monk statue in order to activate some sort of chek-point but i havent tested...
Combat: i dont know what to tell you, dogs chase me forever, darkman can hit me from their backs..and exploding worms...yes they are actually not a problem once you discover the trick.
Hit boxes: i keep my statment. I'am keep playng and shoting in FRONT of them anbd keep hitting them. i dotn know if is machine related. im using a pc with windows 10 pro, if its any help
Sounds: you right, but with multiple monsters chasing me is hard to distinguish the correct sound between "monsters roar", dashing, hitting, me get hit, and my own voice sayng "wtf! wtf!"
tall grass: was not an accusation, since one of the prompt says : you dont have to fight them" i though i could just hide somewhere, and the tall grass seems nice since i can barely see myself, i figured the monster would not see me either. but that was JUST my hopinion, i used to mark the fact that is quite difficult to avoid combat.
I said i will have keep it short...but as you can see im not good at it -_-
