It makes me incredible happy you played it honestly and honorably! It was intended to go the the last heal spot on death, but when I failed to implement a save system at the same time, that's when I left god mode on on accident for export. Everyone has different opinions on the difficulty, so I'm hoping that means I did it just right!
It's unfortunate you spend so little time in the cathedral after everything! Sorry for the late reply, but thank you for giving it a play!
