Winter Curse Demo 0.2.0

I'm going to give this quest a 1 star, only for effort and design.

First of all, I broke the game. I went into a cave and this happened: http://i.imgur.com/qdhlzWP.png
I'm pretty sure this isn't supposed to happen, this is a test screen. I tried to get out of the screen but I couldn't the only way to get out was to F6 or just to restart the entire quest again.

Secondly, the music is outrageous, the MIDI you have used for the overworld literally destroyed my taste for music. I cannot bare listening to that sequence of sounds so I had to mute it... as soon as I started.

Sadly, because of the game-breaking bug I couldn't get the sword... but I did get to level 1! The design was very bland and I got bored of the quest. One room of level one (to the right of the entrance) there is this very unpleasant puzzle, spike maze.

Enemy difficulty. I see keese and octorocks in level one. Good sign. In the overworld I see LikeLike's. BAD sign. You need to fix up your enemy balancing.

So after all this, I hope you improve this quest. But for now, I shall give this quest a...

1/5

This demo felt outdated and unfinished. I suggest using the EZGBZ 2.5 tileset instead. And update the treasure chests so that they behave like normal 2.5 chests. That is unless you're trying to make it a 2.10 style quest. But even then, I suggest more details and better design in both the overworld and dungeon.

You should also block off unfinished areas. There are way too many cutoffs and blank screens in this demo. It feels unfinished, even for a demo.

Again, if you're going to make this a 2.50 quest, make sure you're using EZGBZ 2.5. I saw template screens from EZGBZ 1.0 when I entered a house. The music is pretty repetitive. I suggest having a better loop or another MIDI entirely.

I hope you take these into consideration so that you can improve on this quest, I'm only trying help.
