The opposing forces need to be placed further away to give you time to build, and hotkeys/multiple sift would of been nice. The game has potential and fixing these issues would complete the game. Leaving the game as is, however, is a bad idea. Right now, the game is, to be polite, shitty.
I don't see the point in having an inventory if none of the items you get from chests are collectible. I had a battle axe, and picked up a longsword. I went to equip the longsword, but it was not in my inventory. While I respect the designer's style and talent, I think it would of been better for him to play through the game two or three times him/herself first to make sure it was truly complete.
