What an amazing game. Gameplay is well thought-out, although the purpose of different movement arrows is not obvious. Graphics are beautiful with fitting sounds and music. Got to depth 88 first run.
Well done!

Thank you for playing! And congrats to making it to depth 88! It's not an easy game the first time around.
The movement arrow mechanics are a bit obscure but each time you move to a new depth, each button rolls and determine what kind of encounter they are. And then you roll again to see if you can make out what it is (you can increase your chance of seeing what each direction will be based on your Mind stat). When you hover over them, it will tell you if you can see something or not. Texts like "You can't see anything in the darkness in front of you" means you failed your vision roll to see what's ahead. While texts like "The path in front of you seems somewhat safe" means that there's no enemy encounter and of course texts like "You feel an evil presence in front of you" means there's gonna be an enemy encounter in that direction. Hope that helps!
