I am actually working to address these issues currently since I'm now working on some feature updates that will come after the expansion.
1. I am going to improve the targeting and also increase the threshold for double taps. I notice the same issues on devices like the Galaxy Player 5.0. I think some devices just have a lower resolution for touch coordinates, and they appear to need a larger threshold for things like double tap to work well. The use for free look is targeting creatures diagonal to you. You can target with a double tap. Also, it makes it easier to pick up items on the ground if you look down.
2. I'll add some combat messages once I add the configuration page and get away from the menus. This will report on how much damage you are doing. Information of how damage is calculated with spells can be found in the Guide on this website.
3. I am not a fan of monsters that are of equal difficulty by area. I prefer games like Dark Souls, Nethack, or Dwarf Fortress where there are both weak and strong creatures. When generating levels the stronger creatures usually appear only half as much as other creatures. Some creatures have devastating attacks. As you increase in levels, creatures gain new abilities. Some of these abilities may change what is most damaging to your character build. Some creatures are stronger against some builds than others.
4. You can also bash though locked doors with a two handed weapon. Though, you may alert creatures to your area. Locked doors are very beneficial in higher difficulty games where there is permadeath. You can lock doors to prevent creatures from passing into certain areas. Locked doors also prevent the player from quickly running through the level and can cause a bit of tension when the player is trying to run but their path is blocked by a locked door that they must bash down or fiddle through their inventory to find a key for.
5. I may increase the seeing distance for dark dungeon areas by another section. As for gamma, there are gamma correction programs on Marketplace. They require an extra permission, access to system settings, to install. I won't put such a thing in a game. People tend to complain when games have access to such permissions. |
