i think i've gotten to the "bad ending", and have no clue how to go about finding the "good ending". sadly this game seems to have a small player base (yesterday the 24hr peak was two players), so not a lot of forum posts, walkthroughs, let's plays, etc. are available online to provide guidance.

game is neat, and i don't terribly mind the concept of repeating content on future cycles (it is fun to demonstrate mastery of the progression - what took me 10hrs initially to complete takes me only an hour now). but that doesn't mean i don't find some parts tedious - i'm looking at you, Red Tomb!

add into that some overall jankiness - e.g. sometimes you can cast a spell and it won't work, but you move five pixels to the left and it works - and you get a game that is good but falls short of great, imo. something like Void Stranger has a similar vibe but hits a bit stronger for me.

still, i hope more people check it out, if for no other reason than to increase the conversation online (and ergo the number of hints that are shared online!).
