I’m watching it now! I’m so flattered that you played this and I literally cried happy tears. I had no expectation that anyone would ever stream my game.
Watched d757gaming's stream. I feel like there is a cool idea here, but the execution is lacking.
The sacrifice system is too much of a negative thing. You only lose things and get nothing in return. Would've been cooler if you could "build" your character in a way. For example, sacrifice a weapon and gain a permanent atk boost. Things like that.
The sacrifice mechanic makes the game look like a rogue lite when the rest of it does not. The choice of music and sound effects is not fitting well either. You got arcade-y 8bit music ranging up to fully voiced music tracks.
There are no interactions with anything. You made a silent protagonist, which would be fine on its own, but you lack any meaningful other characters that make up for it. My advice would be to give the protagonist at least some inner self-dialogue. Show his emotions, what he thinks of his strange surroundings and what he's doing and so on.
The most lackluster point however is the combat system. It's boring. It's very basic and out of the box. Enemies barely have any skills themselfes and the way the mp work mostly turns the fights into "attack, attack, attack."
The game seriously lacks explanation for it's mechanics. You got some kind of super mario extra live system that again, feels arcade-y but take them away for important red boss fights.
Some shard that supposedly give you sp weren't usable and there was a boulder blocking the path but the pickaxe wasn't usable (That's when the stream ended)
Overall I feel there is a cool idea here but the game struggles to decide what it wants to be.
