Great game, I really enjoyed it! I would suggest recalculating the random relic probability based on whether a particular relic has already been found - making it more likely to find unique relics and not duplicates. I played through the game four times and never found the Eye of Inferno, which I would expect to be a more 'common' relic. Also might want to adjust the contrast of the exist square on some levels where it gets lost in the background.

if u r missing an artifact AND finished the game, start at level 49, 50 is a bonus, get artifact, and use escape wings.

Hmmm. Am I the only one that finds many more artifacts when I'm not carrying escape wings? Vote up if you think that having Escape Wings in your inventory decreases artifact finding chance. (Although it could just be my luck, but 6 artifacts on 5 consecutive floors seems too coincidental.)

First off, brilliant game. Really enjoyed it. That said, I went through the depths three times (and earned the spelunking badge), but never received the Eye of Intelligence. It's a little frustrating as I'd hoped by the time I'd finished the game thrice over I'd have collected everything I need for medals!

Really enjoyed it, fantastic for a first-timer :P As mentioned before, the hotkeys for magic idea would be a good addition, and possibly enemies dropping items or weapons (the addition of more 'bosses', say every 10 levels, would also (IMO) be a good plan.
Again, nicely done! :D 5/5.

i think the inventory should be able to organize your items. so you can keep like a bag of mage clothes, or a bag of fighting clothes, then a bag of eyes, and everything else just stays out so you can sell it

@Danil: Escape Wings, as with spells, potions, and ethers, must be dragged from the inventory and onto your character on the main screen.
This game is quite smashing, especially for a first-time endeavor. Very well done. 5/5

I dont know if this bug exists in this version or not, but in the armor games version of this game, there was a bug where if you dragged an item from the "inventory" screen to the "map/combat/movement" screen right as you begin to attack an monster you would glitch the item into doubling, on the armorgames version of this game i used this trick to get 50 health potions and my first artifact 20 times before i got to level 10, i killed the final boss on my very first run through =)

I LOVED this game. It only slightly reminded me of an old mac game called Dragon Maze or something, but it was so addictive that i got through the whole game in one try!!! To me, this was definately 5/5 material, and i would love to find other games that are a similar style that i could really get into!!

great game but i can't use the wings -.-
can someone give me a hint how to use it "correct"? (it doesn't work, when i drop them in the character window) :(

Working all the way to the boss and then insta-killing him would be the biggest disappointment since nintendo Wii, wouldn't it?

Very good mini game. Has the retro feel...
Suggestions though.
There should be an easy way to sell things. At high level floors I got tons of items and it is so hard to sell. ctrl+click will do the job.
Other than that, I consider it a cute good game.
Oh, and MOAR! :)

Considering this is the developers first attempt at flash gaming I think this had been an outstanding display of how to make a simple yet effective gaming development work. While it's not perfect, you have to support and congratulate him on an outstanding effort and no doubt we will see more fantastic games from this upcoming developer star in the making. 5/5 !

The magic combat spells were almost entirely useless when i played. If you use mana potions, its about 100+ gold per cast, while you can do much more damage with a weapon with virtually no cost. I found the healing spells useful though. I also overestimated the boss O.o Other than that, i still gave 5 stars :D

ahh. okay to get any where. keep playing over and over the early levels 1-8, use the wings you will surely find before you reach level 9. this takes you back to beginning. when you start new game. buy the stongest sword you can each time since all your stuff will be gone.. eventually you get items that wont dissapear.. keep going until you get many artifacts then start replayin levels 10-19 etc.. I get it now. Thanks me

This is cyber crack. I can't stop myself from clearing the data and starting over when I complete the game. I predict that we will see some of the best online (and maybe even offline, I hope) games from DustinAux in the future.

How do you all come that far? I am always dying at floor 5 or 6 - didn't find any potions yet and the one in the shop: 10 hp for 175 gold? Lol.

Decent game, and fairly easy after about level 30. One of the main problems I had with it was when it froze up while I was trying to trade in a knight's Helm on Shop 39. The shop screen was open and I could scroll the items, but nothing was drag-able and the buttons all became unresponsive. I couldn't save or use wings, so I hit refresh and lost 6 of my 15 artifacts (and 98% of my gold). And it dropped me back down to room 29. :(

i found that going thru lvls 1-18 gives you decient gold and also raises your stats just as fast once your satisfided go for 19-28 kept going like that till i had all artifacts and over 10000 gold

Hey thedbag, I was on 88 and died because I forgot to look at my health, and had to start on back on 39 after finding TONS of epic artifacts.

To get badges you have to escape cave (via wings or completion, it will then update artifact count etc)
Few tips if your struggling;
1.)Escape wings will save game play, and also allow you to collect extra stats and armor. So essentially you can power up on lower floors in order to make higher floors easier.
2.)Clicking on item boxes will tell you what type of item is inside (Leg Armour etc) So check if its worth going after the box if you are low on health.
3.) Whilst an item may be rated lower, higher attack weapons and armor may be better if they allow you to one hit enemies. It will save you a fair bit of health.

This game is amazing. Please work on a sequel. I would buy this game if it came out on PSN or XBLA, that's free money for you man! Keep up the great work.

This game is amazing! One of the best games ive ever played on kongregate. in my opinion it has great replay value because of the incredibly strong sword you get at the end. u can just keep hacking and slashing through all the floors again finding any of the artifacts u missed. again this is a very good game 5/5

This was a great game, but it started to get very easy around level 30 so long as i watched what i fought. It took me 3 1/2 hours to complete all of it (i tried to get every treasure box) but it was still great. The ending was a bit weird though, I was expecting more enemies.
Also, i played through all 100 levels in one sitting.

i keep forgetting to pay attention to my health so i die even when I have health potions and healing spells. I think there should be a feature alerting you when your health is low. All in all 5/5.

word to the wise:you have to use the wings to save any progress you have made.
..i died at lvl 49 after only saving last at lvl 9 ouch

it's completely stopped working for me--like, i click something and it doesn't do anything. :( i was really far, too! i'll try again tomorrow? it was enjoyable until then!

Loving it. This is my new daily game.. totally addicted. I really enjoy the variety of treasure drops, it's probably my favorite part. Getting some weird random artifact or bit of equipment is my primary motivation. I only wish it weren't so expensive to stay alive. Even IF magic was hotkeyed, I'd still probably skip using any offensive spells to save all my mp for healing (which btw is too expensive to cast!). Other than that, great game.
