Should I add more equipment? I think I've got a pretty healthy selection but I think more wouldn't hurt if I can make it all have a purpose. I'm mostly unsatisfied with the selection of body armor since they're all straight upgrades that do slightly different things from the default, but not unsatisfied enough to not take a no as an answer.

So you know my game is eventually going to have a graphical overhaul. I've started working on the menus but the font is a pain in the ass.

I put some flying motherfuckers in my game but they ended up being janky asses. You could just straight up avoid them by standing still while they cross through you and that was no good. I don't want to remove them because my philosophy with the section they appear in is "you should be able to avoid all of the enemies" and it also imitates 2D Platformers so you can't just walk around them. If you go into the files and check out their event names you will see that they are named appropriately.

Turns out all you need to do in order to make a fight challenging is make them apply ailments and buffs. I'll try to remember that.

And on the note of the full game, does anybody have any free 2D animation software they'd recommend that would hopefully speed up the brute force process? I've decided to end the search for dedicated particle animation software and instead go for 2D animation but I don't know anything about animation software.

Now that it's been almost a month since the tech demo has been released, I'd like to hear some thoughts on it. What did you guys think? How balanced is the game? What do you think should be tweaked?
