Hello! Welcome to Feedback Quest 8! My name's Hythrain, a co-host and one of the streamers for this event! This feedback is being written live as I stream your game! If you're interested in seeing my live reaction, let me know and I can send you a link to the VOD once it's posted to YouTube!

So my normal approach for any game in these events is simple: I get the game, make sure it's not a virus, then play it with as little information on how to play as possible. This way, I can judge how intuitively someone can figure out the game. Only if it's obvious that I need to read more will I do so. I note this so you can get a sense where some of these feedback comes from. In addition, I want to note that feedback and rating are different; don't use this feedback to gauge what I'll rate, nor should you view my rating as entirely indicative of my feedback.

So I'll be upfront: I don't feel like there's any sort of feedback I can provide you. The visuals are great, sound design is spot on, and the primary game loop feels fun. I could see myself losing track of time just playing this over and over.

The one thing I did think should be changed is how fast text is taken off the screen, like in the beginning. As a streamer, I like to do dramatic readings of text for my viewers and it can be challenging to do that when the dialogue goes off faster than I can speak the words. I also felt this way when I'd get the maps with that one fellow who'd give you your boon first and then have the enemies attack, as every time my Guardian would get an upgrade and would prevent me from reading whatever he said when he left. I'm big on story, so I like even the insignificant bits of story.

Edit: I completely forgot something! When I downloaded this game, I was left utterly shocked when I extracted it from the ZIP file to find the extracted size was nearly over 9 times as large! How the hell did you do that?! I've NEVER seen compression on that level and I want to know your secrets!
