This game is great! I love vermis and I love this interpretation of it, but I've found a few bugs.

(SPOILERS)

After fighting the Stench Champion and getting infected, once outside I saved and once the status went away I still took poison damage indefinitely throughout the playthrough, this was only solved by closing and re-opening the game. I even took infection damage in the character select screen when I quit without closing the game!

Many NPC conversations don't reset between playthroughs, so I'll be on a new save and the frog knight will always be on their last line of dialogue - this persists regardless of whether or not I have closed the game.

I hope this helps!

Also it took me so long of traversing the flutewood forest trying to find the key to go inside after the Helmet's Beast before finally reading that its unfinished.

I love this game - great gameplay and style, but I feel it needs a little bit more guidance as to how to deal with threats.

So from someone who has beaten the hard mode here are some tips!

Tips for beating the game (& hard mode):

• spam flash the closet, yes it speeds up battery drain but it makes the closet close much faster
• when flashing the windows, I've found it works most consistently when you flash the monster, flash the other window and flash the first again
• change batteries often and quickly after you've dealt with something, even if the charge isn't very low
• you never have to look at the door, so don't bother, just listen for it

I hope this helps!
