I've held off reviewing this for quite some time since I never really got around to doing it, but here we are lol.

To begin with, I'm basing off my opinions on the beta that I played (which I assume hasn't changed too much in the final release). But anyway, the actual quest itself was really nicely made, I had a lot of fun playing it. The world design is really unique and progression is very clear and easy to follow. I especially like how open the world feels after Level 1 or so, and the fact that you can enter later dungeons to get to different parts of the world is really cool. Another thing is how interconnected the dungeons themselves are. I never thought I'd find myself going back into Levels 2 or 3 from later dungeons, and that interconnectivity really makes exploring a lot more interesting. The dungeon and puzzle concepts are all very unique, some of which I've never really seen done before. The soundtrack is all really solid too, and there were a few songs that have been stuck in my head for a real (notable mention to the fields area to the south, shoutouts to simpleflips). The difficulty curve is done fairly nicely and I don't recall any parts that were imbalanced or anything like that. I normally don't pay much attention to stories in quests, but the story for this one is quite interesting and pretty easy to follow through. I felt quite invested throughout the entire quest.

IMO, some of the graphics work can be improved on. I've already explained some things from the beta report from a while back, but things like perspective can be looked into a bit more so some objects make a bit more sense (like the area around the factory). Likewise, some of the sprite work can be touched up on a bit too so things can be a bit more distinguishable compared to the environment. But yeah that's pretty much all I have for that. There may be other things, but I can't recall them atm.

Overall, I'd give this one a solid 4/5. Pretty nice work and I'm looking forward to any more quests you make. I'll probably replay this one in the future, but we'll see lol.
