The pixel art was great, it was expressive and it was clear that a lot of effort and detail was put into the models. Crystal ball cape wizard is a memorable and unique character design, and I thought he was very cute. I also liked the haunter inspired monsters. The sounds and effects popping up, icon art, and text were polished and distinguished in my opinion.
The mechanics were a little confusing to me, but not understanding them did NOT hinder my ability to play, which was great. What was frustrating was getting one-hit KO'd and starting on the first floor when you died. The haunter hands ambushed me from the darkness and killed me as I did not look ahead with the cursor to light the dark. I found it strange how the cursor lit up the space instead of your character. Also, the regular mobs took too long to kill with the standard jar and delayed the pacing of the game, in my opinion.
It was rewarding to pick up items and combine them in an altar you had to find, I just wish they lasted a little longer, aha! All in all, you all put a lot of effort into this game, and the cover art is phenomenal. Much luck with all!
