Please Fix Controls๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

This is probably the best mobile ARPG Iโ€™ve played in terms of story/writing, aesthetics, general gameplay, BUT the controls are so terrible ๐Ÿ˜ญ

This would otherwise be an easy 5 stars!

The controls are jumpy and rigid. Aiming doesnโ€™t feel fluid at all and Iโ€™m constantly trying to attack in one direction, only to have the character swing their sword the complete opposite way! I really hope they dig in at some point and improve the controls. This is a phenomenal game with just that one critical drawback.

Hi ! The right attack button is a joystick. You don't have to tap it to attack enemies, but move your finger in the direction you want to attack. Please note that with some character, you can't move and attack at the same time. Please donโ€™t hesitate to reach out through the in-game support if that doesn't fix the issue!

Super fun game

I really like the RPG and roguelike elements that keep me playing the different characters and learning synergies. The attack joystick is *almost* there but you can get used to them after moving them around a bit. It seems to register the direction you start and end a swipe with, and I think it should really be more of an end state recognition. Still well worth the money and time.

Thank you for your review!

Great Roguelite Title!

This game has been phenomenal, great setting, right amount of RNG and difficulty, and plays great with controller! I play with the ELO Vagabond and this feels great to play!

I would like the game to have a higher fps or even an unlocked fps for more smoother gameplay but other than that, this is such a good port of a well crafted game, I highly recommend!

Great but controls

Like others, really enjoy the game but really not a fan of the joystick attack. Makes it hard to use Linda when I have to attack one direction with one thumb and walk in the opposite direction with the other.

Havenโ€™t long downloaded the game so only a little way into it but I am really enjoying this, obviously Iโ€™ve had games previously from this developer so I pretty much knew what I was getting and it doesnโ€™t disappoint great graphics and great little story definitely looking forward to putting a little more time into this game when I can { unfortunately work has to come first ๐Ÿ˜‚) really pleased with this one, nice work developers.

Game crashing is a buzzkill

The game tends to crash when Iโ€™m in the 3rd stage of a level causing me to lose all the progress up to that point from the start of the level. please try figuring this out, itโ€™s getting quite frustrating and making me lose interest in the game altogether even though the game itself is enjoyable to play

Love the game please fix

Play this a lot on my ps5 was excited to be able to play on mobile, but the targeting is super janky. Iโ€™ll be walking right, with the grey arrow pointing right but my attacks instantly go left without me moving my finger off the movement stick. Please fix, will update review to 5 stars once it is

Update 10/20
Fixed the always looking left but controls are still janky

Great, but needs checkpoint saving for mobile

Iโ€™m enjoying the game a lot but itโ€™s restrictive against playing in short spurts. There have been countless times where Iโ€™m in the middle of a good run and need to come back to it after some time, only to be met with the intro screen and forced to start the run over.

Hello, the game save in the Bergson's House only when you do an action. It's not possible to save in the dungeon but you can leave it and save the run when you're back home.

Attack Joystick Makes Combat Unsatisfying

Review Post Update #1:

Devs implemented an update to the attack joystick that slightly improved the combat. However, the virtual joystick for aiming the attacks is still far too imprecise. This makes the combat too unforgiving. As this is an action roguelite, being precise in combat to avoid taking damage while still landing attacks on the enemies is the core gameplay. The touchscreen attack joystick as currently implemented is not suitable for the combat in this game.

Developers, please consider implementing an option to change the joystick into just a button that auto-targets the nearest enemy in range. Many other action games have similar controls that work very well. The 4th character you get access to (the martial artist) has an auto-Target function in his basic attack so I know the game already has the capability of doing this mechanic.
