Lol. Here, grab some of my chill mate.
Thank you for being the first hater here, and it's not trolling: you just told me we can reach you somehow, and in a sense I understand we speak the same language. And remember that no matter genre preference, retrogaming should be a friendly club. So please do not assume i am trying to ruin someone else party here . Enjoy your cup of tea while I enjoy mine, muddled as it may be.
Just a couple of points from a design point of view.
I think it's funny how you think of this game as a "modern cancer roguelike". Nah. It's like rogue in the sense it's random. A lot of random stuff. And it's got dungeon and you can only go down. That's it.
And it's "-like" because Rogue Is so damn big and awesome and I can't redesign it. Don't rage so much over a label. This game has got literally NOTHING of modern roguelikes. I don't personally like most of them, net hack is my thing.
It also is not an attempt at Doom. It would be AWESOME in that case, innit? Fantasy doom /heretic on commodore? I'm on board. But no, i can't code that. First person in this case is a homage to Classic dungeon crawlers like Eye of the Beholder or Dungeon Master. I suppose you know this games but in case you do not, give them a spin. You'll love them.
Mechanically speaking, this game have nothing in common with a jrpg. It Rolls d20 and has a mechanic inspired by the likes of Frostgrave, not Final Fantasy. Yeah, I'm a miniature nerd.
Long may live Dig Dug, but there's more to the c64 than arcade ports. And also, i would have loved a game like this and i am sharing it. Nobody Is talking away glory or glamour from arcades.
Wish you long 'n fun gaming days reflex, see you around.
P.s. not that I'm a fan of those, but you Just gave me motivation to design a c64 soulslike. XD
Edit: typos
I watched your Amazing video and it made me feel so Happy. I writer a long commenti for you on YouTube, but I won't Copy pasta it here. I'll Just Say that it's and Amazing serendipity that we hot so many gaming experience in common between us, across time and space. You mentioned WoFT, which Is a game I absolutely adore, and ofc the while universe of pen and paper dungeon romps. So Cool.
Let's keep retrogaming and dungeon crawling, sisters and Brothers.

Hi! I'm thingumbob and i am the dude responsible for the manual. And i am also QUITE LATE on it xD. I apologize, but I'm working on it in order to be a fun and pleasing product / meta-content for Delve Deeper. My partner in crime Griffon just told me he's gonna upload some Quick reference guide in the meantime.
Thank you for your understanding and please bear with me .
The game has Indeed some peculiar lore i'd love to share with you in a proper medium.
Love,
