Eso
: : Well done 
But I've a few questions
: : 1) What was the huge secret talked about in the readme? noooo I don't want a complete spoiler, just a hint to get me started.
: It's not that huge, but fairly secret. Have you tried listening to the singer for a while?
hmmmm yes I did, she said "go south of the woodshed* or something or rather, which I did pray to the statue, and get something, I forget what, maybe strength. Was that it? or was it something else?
: Nope. In Nerux, which to be honest I may never work on again, you're able to go into Dink's estate and burn things. In CC, however, I wanted the combat to be pure hack&slash action.
Well, I think you should finish it lol course, it's a purely selfish thing, because if you don't, I will run out of things to play lmao.
: : 7) Is there any potions, or gold hearts hidden anywhere? (I never found any *pout*)
: There is one potion of each type in the game - if you've finished it, then you'll definitely have the magic potion. You'll probably have the strength potion too. The defense one is harder to find, it's hidden in the scenery.
Can you give a hint? I wonder if I found it and forgot about it.
: : Thanks!! These little details always nag at me
: Heh. I need nagging in order to keep up work on Scarab. It's hard to make a fun game.
Ah well, for me, it's the search for treasures and the clues and story that make it fun, I especially love when the author puts a list of the things you can get so that I know if I've found them all. That, and never whisking me away without warning me first, that I can't go back, so I can finish hunting before I go there.
Anyway! Thanks for the answers and hints, you and trout made a fine game
