Addictive!
Yeah, there's some glitches left: the walls in the bat cavern become verry frustrating after a while! And the fact that you must reequip your dude after loading an old game is a bit annoying too. But overall it was one of the coolest game i've ever played on NG!! It was long enough and there was deep enough to keep me busy for about three hours. A lot of items (though a lot had the same effects). I'd like it a little more gory, but it was okay - the blood and the heads did the job! ;O) Anyway i think i will start a new game with a magic-oriented character: the enemies don't give enough EXP after a while - it takes too long to upgrade the character to its full levels.
I sincerely hope you'll make a sequel with more stock to buy and upgrade and all! Oh and more guts and blood to!!
Overall: almost perfect! Well done dude!
