Thanks for the info on the bars. That will help. I also had a feeling the hit detection could be an engine thing, so confirmation on that is nice to have.
With the information of the shrine, I'll probably try again when I have more time. I do want to go more into this, since it does have a lot going for it.
Hey Hodslate,
So I put some more time into Bane of Oakenshade. I actually figured out quite a bit (found the shrine, got a bunch of levels and the next spell). I had wanted to put about two hours into it, but about an hour and 25 minutes in the game crashed on me and I lost a LOT of progress. Overall, though, I like this a lot and, if you're interested, I'd love to be able to play more while talking with you live some day.
When the VOD with this gameplay releases (which, I'll admit, I did go through our history in FQ events because I do want to be clear about this for folks new to my stream so they understand why this game is such a big deal to me personally), you can check it out on my Youtube. I do hope you'll give it a check and see where the crash happened. I also want you to know, I changed my rating for this game and made it higher than I had originally done.
While I know you said you won't submit games for a while, I do hope if you get some time you'll be able to improve this title even more. I do legitimately like it and want to play through to the end of the story (I know From Software games tend to never have "happy" endings, though I am hoping you've put one in this).
