it’s awesome playing thru ikenfell on the switch. i’m finally getting to just play the game, listen to all the amazing audio and music, and laughing at the wild stuff that happens in battle sometimes. it’s so nice on the tiny beautiful screen.

also, since i’m trying to test the whole game quickly, i’m skipping a lot of battles, meaning i keep getting to the bosses and BARELY being able to beat them, by using clever strats.

ikenfell requires no grinding, and each battle is custom made so as you progress, they get more challenging, and there are no repeat battle layouts. battles also are generous with XP and treasure. there is no “randomness” with drops.

there are so many tricky things you can do, i’m excited to see what times speedrunners are going to be able to clock.

i’m also really proud of the treasure in the game. the game is littered with secrets, hidden everywhere, rewarding the curious and clever, or even sometimes the accidental. it treasure is ALWAYS good. always.

you’ll pretty much never get like... a potion you can already buy at the store. tons of the treasure is completely unique equipment, often really helpful for balancing your character loadouts for tricky bosses, etc.
