Love the pixel art, love the card based combat. Really dislike that you are essentially blindly roaming through absolutely identical tunnels with no indication where they might lead (or even whether you already were in this specific tunnel) until you stumble upon something interesting.

I also have to points concerning the focus state (I specifically gained it through the opening strike skill):
- Is it possible to actually update the cost display of cards in hand when you halve their cost with focus?
- While I had focus on I could use the ward skill which normally costs 5 EP while I only had 1 EP remaining.

Lastly in the plugins folder you have plugins from several authors which require to be credited when you use their plugins. However if I choose "credits" in the menu I only see credits for graphics and sounds.

@eomereolsson I didn't check the game yet, but the credits for the plugins
are on "itch.io" page, but I would agree to also have one in the game itself.

for more visibility, clarity towards those authors.

@eomereolsson thanks for trying it out, and the feedback!

I'll keep the dislike of the maze design in mind! While I'd like to keep most of the hallways identical- as to keep the players lost- a landmark here and there to guide the player a little.

Unfortunately, I can't dynamically change the card cost display due to the limitations of the plugin at the moment. However, the costs not matching/working correctly is most likely a bug I should fix.

I'll fix the credits, too! Forgot to add them to the in-game credits which absolutely must be corrected.
