I like the consideration that went into the different spells we unlock and the enemies that are introduced alongside them. Probably my favorite use of doors we can't enter. I hate those birds worse than anything.
Thanks Kyle! The birds can be a pain if not dealt with properly, the poison and paralyze spells work the best! Did you manage to make it to the end of the game?
I did, though mostly because I found a disgusting strat (exploit) for the final boss. I did miss the second spell (probably behind the first waterfall, I realized too late)
