Rune Ark

did you make the graphics yourself?

found a little weird bug with the game - when you ask the church nun to heal your wounds for measely 50 copper you can get overhealed! this is what happens, as shown in the image) i think it's actually a cool little feature that could be incorporated into the mechanics - maybe make the over-healed parts of the health bar green or yellow, to symbolise it being from god?)

the game itself is a lot of fun, too! the gameplay loop is simple but challenging, the progression feels natural and rewarding whenever you buy anything or hire new companions and exploring the dungeons feels great! the graphics look mighty nice, too, and the music is a pleasure to the ears) overall, the game reminds me of the good old times, back in 2010, when i was a young lass... and that's a plus, too!) i think i even had a game with a similar gameplay feature in my 350 games awalar disc... oh well) in any case, i also wanted to leave my 5 cents in form of a suggestion - to make all the enemies more memorable and distinct, why not add certain mechanics to their fights? while fighting the golem, maybe some of the gems might be petrified so that you can't interact with them, or with the dinosaur so that he may eat away some of your gems - kind of like that!) this would make for an even more fun gameplay loop, in my opinion)

other than that - no gripes or suggestions! take care!

my first encounter with the red dragon was terrifying

Ground myself up a few levels. Felt like a really elaborate idle game. Go on, fight, match lines, repeat. Got a lot of gold? Go to town, click a few buttons, go back to dungeon.

I was disappointed when my wimpy level 1 adventurer wiped a red dragon with starter gear.

While I initially had a bit of trouble figuring out how the controls worked during an encounter, the game drew me in even more afterward. Visuals were also on point! Good Job!
