Playing this right now. I'm hoping to actually finish all of your content this time, now that I finally have some time to relax.

The art is great, music is comfy and very fitting, animations are great. Enemies are very satisfying to kill. Difficulty feels just right - really hard (for me) but not unfair. Every encounter feels tense. It's nice.

I discovered magic entirely by accident. I picked the sword and staff as my starting weapons, but didn't realize the staff gave me access to a spell until I looked through the menus. Fireball is cool and satisfying to use. Haven't used any others yet.

The sound skellies make when you kill them is perfect. Hearing the crunch is like music to my ears. 

I moved onto floor 3 and alt tabbed to write this. When I tabbed back in, I think the game was still loading, because Towerguy wasn't anywhere on my screen and I couldn't move or open the map or anything. The usual loading screen wasn't visible. After a while the "Press any key to continue" screen popped up and everything started working again. 

The only nitpick I have (had?) was that the map didn't have an opacity slider, but you or somebody else informed me in the thread that +/- works for that. I'm still playing through it, so if I have any useful feedback I'll edit this post. It's genuinely really fun though, and it's hard to find any serious faults. I'd buy it.

Edit 1: Trying to reproduce and record the loading screen bug. Saves also weren't working, but I died and restarted and now saves and the loading screen(s) are both working again. I'm gonna keep trying to break it to see if I can get a recording though. Also, I used a potion during a loading screen while pressing every button on my keyboard to see what I could break.

thank you for playing and for the write up. i'm glad our levels don't suck this DD :^)

never heard of this before, i'll jot this down and try to replicate this. since you say Towerguy (stealing this) wasn't on your screen, I assume you mean the default (not the loading) screen was on. was it the screen of the last level, or the screen of the level you just loaded in to? perhaps a loading screen just didn't load properly in general - if it happens again then that might be the case.

i'm very glad to hear you are having fun and i hope you enjoy your time. there is a stopper at the end of the Halls of Pain, but the "end" of the demo occurs when you defeat the quest enemy you'll hear about after many more levels. feel free to stop at the stopper-prompt (where you get asked for the password)

thanks again for playing and for the feedback!

I'm trying to break it again so I can record what happened, but so far I've been unable to do so after dying. Saves weren't working for me with the broken loading screen run either.  Everything works now on a new file. So far I've had no luck with breaking it after that run ended, but if I manage to break it again I'll record it and send the footage your way. Also, just wanted to say that the music in the halls of pain is extra kino.

thanks again. if you still have that broken save, send it my way!
