Hi! I found your game on twitter and fall in love with the art style! I love this so much I can't even explain. My brain just explode when I saw the NPC's and monsters. I love the plot as well. At first I though it's gonna be a very basic, cliche thing about dark ages doctors but I was never expecting something so deep and intryquing!
Every cutscene give me goosebumbs, especially that one in "Cable City". And unfortunately there I rage quit my game.
I figured out how the fighting is working, be able to dash every sword attack but the guy with the gun will haunt me in my nightmares (I can't kill him and I've tried multiple times!)
• Fighting
It's so well done! Movement is very smooth and when you get use to it it's easy to kill mobs with swords. I don't know how to use the skill which is on "R" key and I missed the part where there was an explaination what does this light blue circle mean (i guess its connected to the R which I have no idea how to use). But i'm gonna figure it out.
The trouble is when I kill mobs easy for me to kill (sword users) there is only the hard one's left. Dodging the gunman shot's is very hard, he is too fast. I was trying to get the ladder and go upstairs cause I saw a easy to kill mob there but I simply can't pass that gunman.
So I have only the mob in the well left and the mob in the next room. They are so strong I've figured out they must be bosses. And well killing them is litterally impossible. With only 2 heal potions, not knowing how to use R skill it's impossible.
So for me and my gaming skills this game is deffinitly too hard. For people like me who comes cause of art and stays for the story I request easy mode so I could go further and explore the world which catch my attention.
Things which I love:
- plot
- pixel artstyle
- fighting mode
- item and story explaination under the 'I' button
- gameplay is not boring and made you wanna know about the world more
- sneaking lvls (when you have to hide cause elders are walking or mobs)
- characters style. I love how this dude looks like. You did really an amazing job with the style!
Things which I don't like:
- not enough save points and they are in moment's which are far away from enemies so you have to run too much and kill every mob once again
- while fighting inside the well, you can't go through the bucket but the enemy can so running from enemy is extra difficult
- complicated controls in menu. Well I might be whining right now but as a player who always play on keyboard I was so used to 'WSAD' moving my menu. It's really hard to get used to it. Movement in game is not a trouble tho.
- Menu is not on "ESC" it's pretty confusing and I was looking very long to find where the menu was hiden.
- The cursor being always on screen make you believe you can use it but you can't. It's confusing as well.
- healing is very slow and I can't count how many times I died because of it.
- character is very weak at the beggining what causes troubles in fighting with mobs which are strong from the very start
- Only two potions, I would request more or the character healing while doing nothing. I know you can receive some heal by using "R" but as I describe above I have no idea how to use it.
I'm playing on computer, using normal keyboard, on full screen. Game never shut down without any sense, everything runs with amazing quality.
I can't believe I could play game this well done for free and I'm gonna try my best to kill those mobs which are making my progress stuck. I'm gonna upload more though's then. Thank you, please work hard and believe in this project cause it's gonna be fire!
