Ninja stealth roguelike? Cool!

Unfortunately I didn't play much because some things annoyed me a bit too much. 

Options menu please,  at the least sound options and if not rebindable controls I want to know what the controls are. I've played quite a few traditional roguelikes, ADOM being my favorite so I still have the muscle memory for playing that. Numpad moves - good, but 5 doesn't wait? How do you wait? Some items auto-pickup, makes sense, but I couldn't find the pickup button for those that don't. I keep trying to press W+direction to move in a direction until you hit something of interest like in many other RL games, could be something to add.
Other controls like the for inventory is fine as the keys are in the UI.

Lighting is nice. Same with the sounds. Some simple effects would do a lot I think, like a diagonal slash when attacking with a sword.

The game doesn't seem to be made for fullscreen at all, I played on a 27" 1440p monitor, loads of empty space. I'd like to be able to scale the UI, zoom in and out of the gameview with the mousewheel.


This is just a personal preference, but I think I'd like the log more on the bottom.

Enemies don't give any XP? I assume it's not implemented yet.

All in all the base seems good and I think a more stealth based RL can be really interesting, but I'd like to see a lot more QoL. As you can tell.

I forgot to mention that I can't get the Help window up, ? doesn't work.

Thanks for the feedback! I fixed up a few things, and a lot of the other stuff you mentioned is on the to do list.

You SHOULD be able to bring up the help with "?", it works on my machine, but there was an issue that may have stopped that working on some keyboards which is hopefully fixed now. Most of the stuff you talked about is implemented but I can't blame you for not finding it if the help wasn't working.

Enemies give exp at the end of the level, so that you can see what exp you got for killing vs sneaking past(sneaking past gives bonus exp).

It's likely a keyboard layout issue, I'm using a nordic keyboard.
