Hey just watched your gameplay! I really appreciate you trying my game and glad that you enjoyed it.
There are a couple of things I can answer.
- Studying reveals weakpoints, and it reveals important data permanently in the notebook. Per run, studying must be regathered per enemy (unlocks dodging for that enemy type, increases damage and accuracy, shows weak point mid-battle)
- Every enemy has a weak point.
- Study is passive in effect. Study a creature type fully (3 times) in a run, don't have to do it again, and you've unlocked 30% dodge against its type for the run.
- There are several AOEs and crazy weapons to unlock (missile launchers, grenades, laser guns, magic sword, molotov cocktails, etc)
- I do apologize that you encountered the same two enemies over and over and I believe I've fixed that in the next update.
- The shop gives a warning about making only one choice, and as you can get multiple shops per run, I believe it's fair, but if it isn't I'm super open to changing that.
- All criticism here is completely noted and I'm excited to make some updates!
You're awesome and thanks again! I really just want people to play my game. It's one of the most exciting feelings in the world.
