The game is very cool. \nAs far as feedback, I think poise should regenerate a little quicker, and maybe fill up immediately outside of combat.

Combat was tense - the choice to not have enemies really telegraph the attack perfectly created a guessing game that was nerve-wracking in an interesting way, but reduced the skill factor.\n\nThe music is a solid throwback feel, and the art style is really great!\n\nWell done.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"DeathBySnail","author_uid":"1000461","time":"2019-04-29T18:30:56Z","epoch":1556562656,"modified":1556562656,"text":"Cool gif drew me in, love the art style.

The combat is nice, I feel like I can sometimes react to enemies' attacks but I'm still a little unsure if it's possible. Since the combat and the random events are both tied into the attack damage\/poise\/health\/money systems it feels very cohesive and it makes the choices vary depending on how much you have for each variable. The art also manages to do a lot with limited scope. Stuff like the walls\/floor feels polished even though it probably took like 10 mins to put together. The animations are really crisp too. Also I'm not sure if I just suck at the game or if the narrator is programmed to always be condescending when I die :P Anyway, thanks for the game, I really enjoyed it!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"NandoN","author_uid":"1152926","time":"2019-04-30T13:02:09Z","epoch":1556629329,"modified":1556629329,"text":"I love the combat","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"JasonD","author_uid":"1145914","time":"2019-04-30T14:11:01Z","epoch":1556633461,"modified":1556633461,"text":"Looks great!\n\nI think the combat could be pretty fun, once you get the hang of it.\nThe other events, and the way you lose your life, feel a bit arbitrary.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Drauthius","author_uid":"1008285","time":"2019-04-30T14:16:24Z","epoch":1556633784,"modified":1556633784,"text":"Looks good.
