Well, considering this is not an RPG I'm not sure why I would add fighting to the game, but I appreciate your thoughts on the matter! I definitely agree I could have added puzzles or even a minigame to liven things up, but in the case of simplicity, kept things simple. If I ever do another game similar to this one, I will definitely be adding more to do than walking and exploring to unfold the story!
And I am so glad you liked the PDF!! I really wanted to do the throwback to instruction manuals from my childhood and I had a ton of fun actually making it!
Thank you for playing!
