I'm a huge fan of roguelikes and this was good fun. My biggest gripe was just that if you clicked when you were already walking, you had to wait to get to your first click before you would go to the second click (I would expect it to interrupt the walking and take you to the new destination).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I would like to see a bit more variety, but since there was limited time I think that gets a pass. Great game!"},{"author_name":"Ragzouken","author_uid":"13822","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 4:44pm","epoch":1398789540,"text":"thanks for the stuff explaining security issues - had that problem with so many games already and didn't get it. though the menu doesn't seem to work in the web version for me anyway\r<br\/>\r<br\/>well done on the game though! i dived too recklessly :P"},{"author_name":"Recon","author_uid":"25931","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:44pm","epoch":1398796740,"text":"After security prompt I can't play, but I doesn't  underscore it for this."},{"author_name":"DazKins","author_uid":"17580","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:49pm","epoch":1398797040,"text":"This is a really cool game, very in depth stats and item progression for a 72 hour game.

Encountered one bug where the item icons in my backbag wouldn't match the items though (they were off by one I think). Liked the auto pathfinding, but I think using both the mouse (for long distances) and the keyboard (for single rooms) would've been easier for me.
