is gold just for score? surprised that antidote works across levels.

Yea, I like that. It’s kind of like Braid, except you can’t go back from actually dying . Still, the oracle thing is currently a no brainer.

Scores: 59, 68

I like that you could backtrack. It’s clever.

Really good! I beat after the second time getting to level 4 and being stupid the first time.

My only complaint is the pits. They’re traps, right? But you can’t disable them with tools, which is slightly confusing. Also, the oracle is trivial to get to and leave, so the location of the pits turns into a memorization problem. Would be greatly improved if the oracle randomized pits when you left it or something.

With “the oracle” and the path tracing, this thing has an interesting computer sciency feel to it.

My strategy is to build up my hearts on level 1 so I can deal with spikes on level 2. I also seek out the oracle as quickly as possible.

You know you can go backwards, right?

Seems like an abstracted Desktop Dungeons. Pretty fun though, but the randomness of spike traps is kind of annoying given how many tunnels there are.

This is awesome. I thought with the sword and my hearts going to the edge (7 hearts) I’d be able to beat the god, but I guess not. I bet my sword level (4) was too low.

Pretty fun. Managed to face the God but I still need a bit more practice to kill it.
