Ah, still so much to come! I loved that bit, you can really spend some time to perfect your build down there. The game just keeps getting cooler, doesn't it. Whenever you think you have it figured out you discover some new surprise it throws at you.

Yeah totally! The game is a lot more forgiving than I thought it would be given the initial vibes. Feels like I have an older brother giving me hints when there's an aspect of the game I'm bit unsatisfied with.

Maaaan I'm tired of running from one end of the map to the other.

It also has two separate ways to make sure you don't get stuck. I'm sure you found the Puzzle Oracles already, which is a great mechanic, and then on its webpage there are great two-stage hints for every puzzle/side quest in the game: first a smaller nudge in the right direction and then under a second spoiler tag the full explanation.This dev is so thoughtful it blows my mind.

I also like how all the game mechanics fit into the lore so naturally. The curse mechanic is one of my favourite game mechanics ever.
