Glad you enjoyed it!
- I think the NPC text that comes up could do with a better font. it feels very operating system, not very "magic fantasy". Something a bit more whimsical would fit better.
I'm not sure if there's font problems but I kinda like how it looks, sort of reminds me of the old crpg fonts which too were bit a operating system I guess.
- the story got me a little confused. at the end of the tutorial, there was a room with a bag that i couldnt seem to interact with. i went back down and was back in my living room. When I went outside, a girl was hiding behind a rock talking about a monster, but I didn't see a monster. So I bombed her ass, and she ran away.
The rock was the monster, it gets on his feet and starts running once you bomb, maybe I could show that better.
- There were a few empty screens, then a witch sent me to the desert. She said no one was supposed to be guarding the crystal, but I had no idea what she was talking about. Then someone on a broom crashed into me and also said something I didn't know who she was or what she was talking about. I know I sound like a damn Alzheimers patient right now but I was pretty confused.
I just checked and the crystal on the portal stone gate thing doesn't show, it was supposed to fly offscreen as you get close and then you see the witch getting it basically, I need to fix that so thanks for bringing it up. And I know right after that the witch crashing you is bit much but I wanted to make sure people see it, I will put her first encounter somewhere further away.
- The staff attack looks good, but its quite unclear when I hit an enemy. I swing, and then even if there is no visual overlap, the enemy disappears a second later.
That's actually a new addition, enemies used to poof immediately but now they linger for a tiny bit more to make it more impactful I guess. And I believe every successful staff/sword attack has slash animation and if you're hitting something with a shield there's a diamond kinda indicator. Perhaps I should make a test dummy to teach more about it.
- please dont force me to watch the hat fall all the way to the ground when i die :D
You can press down and fall faster, but that whole screen might change soon so you won't have to!
Thanks for your feedback, I'll fix the crystal bit next dd if I won't remake whole start of the game.
