 I think there's an update coming in the next few days with a ton of stuff and a reworked progression system.

i started to get sort of far in this, but the idea of replaying the whole loving game each time is starting to wear on me. these games only work when a run is like ~30 minutes. it's a real shame that they didn't just make this a straight-up SOTN clone, because pretty much everything about combat and movement is wonderful.
I enjoyed the basic gameplay enough that I liked it, but I do wish they would tone down the bosses because of this. Hopefully this game's success means they can do a proper Castlevania-style game next time.

i also feel like you're supposed to clear each map to be able to do respectable damage to the bosses. the only time i've beat the first one have been when i've been able to get a decent attack power score.
No, you don't have to. The two bosses have too much health, but you can do a lot with the right combination of skills and weapons. You can rush straight there to open the timed gate after the boss and still win. Also they're changing the weapon/strength system so players don't have to pump everything into strength with scrolls.

 It's good, but it's early access and clearly never going to be finished so w/e.

i bought this for 10 dollars and its hosed up but the combat is actually good. the levels are mostly bad but they serve their purpose i guess (arranging enemies for you to fight or dodge)
The core gameplay is fun but they kind of give up on level design and just give bosses a million HP and put like 30 enemies on every surface.
