This game is amazing. Great style, great ui, it's all the good parts of retro gaming with a lot of modernization that makes it a breeze to play. I will say when I beat a cultist I was underleveled against I was very happy. The game really feels polished. I did have a bit of choice anxiety at the beginning with so many options for hero generation.

Thanks so much for the feedback!
Removing some of the clunki-ness and poor UX of retro games while keeping the fun / nostalgic parts was a big goal with this project.
I'm also glad to hear that the rather steep challenge has been rewarding to solve. (I love those "YES" moments when you take out an over-leveled monster, too!)
I'd be interested to know if you think the choices are too much, or if once you get a feel for the game (and/or on subsequent playthroughs) it alleviates the stress a bit.
Thank you again for playing. Much appreciated!
