This was really cool! The graphics were nice, the setup was interesting and the concept of playing the torment of various characters was a neat concept!
I imagine it wasn't an inspiration, but it honestly kinda reminded me of the library in Thimbleweed Park where every book had part of a story written by kickstarter backers. Which is a good thing imo.
The combat seems simple but was surprisingly polished and varied for a jam game considering the different characters, stats and items. Though I am sad I didn't get to use the holy plate.
Also sadly I didn't get through this game as I ran into the teleport bug, and when I tried to load the savegame, it didn't save any of my progress and I didn't have the spell or key anymore.
I did also find the inventory a bit confusing until I read another comment mentioning the inventory list scrolled. I really would recommend adding the little scrollbar in a post-jam update, it's a simple thing that can screw up an otherwise fantasic entry.
Overall I really enjoyed this though, great work!
