After playing the demo, I felt like making some sort of hold, so here it is. It currently features a six-room puzzle, a rather empty overworld and a few red herrings I put there in case I decided to continue working on this later. Any feedback on the first level is appreciated.

Kinda okayish (but then there's not much to see except the 6 puzzle rooms). Much better than rman's Chasing Kubbardakuz.

EDIT: modded hold up.

There is a sword. You just need to find it, somewhere... ;)

In other news, I think it is mildly amusing that you drop a "No sword" the first time you pick up a weapon, as if it was a tangible object.

Best user made hold so far. Not that there's much competition at this point. I like how all the relevant information was available, but it was still not obvious what to do at first. I felt that the hero got a bit too much HP once you got going, but the right opponents early on in the next level should fix that easily.

This is a really awesome hold. I'm having trouble with it, but I'll get it. EDIT: I got it.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I did not expect such a positive response to what I thought was so very little. :)

I have started working on a second level, but schoolwork is eating up my time right now so it might take a while.

Maybe there can be a hold where you prove your intelligence by holding "sword" and "no sword" at the same time?
