Below are my live thoughts as I played your entry:
Oooh! Neat, I’m a hand with 2 fingers and a thumb. Wow… this ambient sound track is creepy.
Hmm… what are these weird pictures on the wall… looks a bit like a map?
Whelp… I just fell in a hole and died… I think. Interesting! A floating map? Hmmm?
Ack! Some floating eyes are attacking me. How do I fight back? Doesn’t seem to be an attack button and I can’t click on anything here. But, I can move faster than this shadow guy! Let’s get out of here.
The torch light is really cool! I know it is just a pixel art wall torch but it still has light. Neat!
I found a ring!
Okay… back at the beginning again? hmm… A floating hat! Let’s talk with it. A creepy blue ring… I wonder what it does when I wear it. Probably something good. Who knows. It’s pretty and it is mine! MY PRECIOUS!
This dungeon feels different… I should really be paying more attention. I’m not sure if it is different or I have a bad memory.
More eyes… Ah, this time I think I figured out how to fight the “Hollow”. Mmm… Satisfying crunchy punches! Yes! DIE!
Ooooh! I found a key. Another enemy! Oh what is happening to my hand! Yikes! I think I might be about to dy… aaand I’m dead. Respawn. Nice. Talk to hat… get ring… Oooh! I still have the key. Nice! Found a door. Opened door. E-Z P-Z.
What’s this… a ring of blindness… Hmmm… makes me blind. That makes sense. I wonder if it does anything else… Something ate me while I was blind! Okay, back at the beginning again. Feels like I’ve been playing this game for centuries! Or maybe that is just how long the souls have been here ;)
Oh wow! Apparently I can interact with these “maps”. I see they are signs that have some cryptic clues. Very nice!
“Beyond this wall lies the heart of eternity”
Okay… I think that is my goal. But how do I get beyond this wall?
Something keeps killing me in this hallway… Maybe something about the ring of blindness? Let’s try again… Nope. Still dead.
Okay, this time I managed to strafe past whatever was killing me. Let’s keep going!
Oooo! A bonfire! Shiny! A little century long break and I’m back at the beginning. And… now there is a hat in front of the dead fire. Is this past me? Maybe? Also, a terrible fire keeper.
Oh! Hang on, was I able to turn around and go this way the WHOLE time?
“Cast not your gaze upon the eyes that bind” – Okay. Definitely going to need the blindness ring now. Yep! A big eye at the end of this hallway… Also, another at the end of this hallway.
Oooh! Another ring! A fire ring! Maybe I can re-ignite that fire. Traded for a key! Perfect!
A hole… and my hand is now gone… But I have a dagger! “A dagger. You know what to do with it.” – Oh my… Death… 1 century passes and… We’re back! Thanks for hanging onto these rings guy.
The wall is gone! Can I find the heart of eternity now?
And so the cycle continues… and always will…
Thanks for the game! I had a great time!
