Thanks for the comment!
You should definitely check Egyptian mythology out (which I adapted loosely), because there is a lot of cool and unique stuff, but also because a lot of themes are present in other mythologies.
The riddle passage was actually from Gateless Gate, some zen book huhu: https://www.bowzwestchester.org/2020/01/gateless-gate-36.html
Combat is pretty easy, but I felt like increasing the difficulty for a jam game, where people don't come to be kicked in the private parts, wouldn't be fun. Especially since a lot of people are not used to JRPG code/systems in this community.
Thanks a lot!
