Very good. More challenging than The Valley Rule, and had an ending to boot! But I liked The Valley Rule better for being slightly easier and being about a cute girl in the wilderness (for an unknown reason) instead of a cat dreaming. One thing: this didn't push the complete limits of jump/dashing - in the bottom-left-most screen of the toasty area, you can ignore the platform and left edge by jumping from the introductory ledge on the right and dashing straight up.
Neat game, but when does it end? I've gotten all the upgrades I care about (mostly speed for Pacifist completions), and gotten 21 facilities for the trophy, but I can't view the ending yet. Some sign of progress would be nice.
Correction: It would be nice if a Golden Voucher was guaranteed on about every 4-5 days, Divine Edge was guaranteed immediately before every dragon encounter (or dragon wasn't an auto-lose without it), the weapon/armor cap was removed, it was possible to use both a Golden Voucher and Divine Edge/Elixir in a dragon battle, Soul Shrines were guaranteed to not appear before <30% Lifespan, and only 1 of the same type of accessory shop (Elixir/Voucher/Edge) appeared between any 2 monster fights.
This game is fun, but it has weird balance. Enemies scale beyond the weapon/armor cap, ensuring I eventually lose. Without buying a coupon, enemies deal more damage than I can afford with armor upgrades/life elixirs. Finding a dragon before a Divine Edge or max armor/weapon + Life Elixir is auto-lose. Weapon and armor shops keep showing up after I've hit the cap and can't purchase from them anymore, even to just restore my HP at the armor shop.
It would be nice if a coupon was guaranteed on days 3, 6, and 9-ish, Divine Edge was guaranteed before every dragon encounter, the weapon/armor cap was removed, and it was possible to use both a coupon and Divine Edge/Life Elixir in a dragon battle.
So there's to ways to slay a dragon: 1. Have max armor/weapon and a life elixer. 2. Use a Divine Edge. Most consistent way I've found to get either of those is to buy a single weapon upgrade at the beginning of the game, then nothing else until I get a coupon. I spend the coupon on the next battle, then start upgrading weapon/armor, but don't go below 500, or ~400 if another battle is up next (so you can buy another coupon). After day 10, I buy the first Divine Edge I see and hoard it until I see a dragon.
Nothing seems to work. I can't do the S+D skill or Tempest Soul even though I'm following the directions. I'm not getting the easy achievement, even though I killed 80 dudes in survival. And Slaughter Chain says "at level 6 this skill reduces the combo timer instead of breaking the combo", but it does not.
