    It looks like the bug that people have been seeing where Amaranth doesn't spawn can happen with Humphrey too.

    What theme will the new dungeon have? Will it be dark like the catacombs or more like amaraths keep?

    It shouldn't get harder. Use your shield more often. If you master that, you'll have no problem clearing the second dungeon.

    I finally found a decent way to record gaming footage. Reflector seems to run fine if I play right next to my router. I'll post some videos tomorrow.

    Thanks! Immediately after posting, I managed to beat Amaranth's Keep. Unlocked the Spellsword. Who is awesome.

    It's a remix of all previous dungeons, with the rare enemy variants becoming more common. There's a boss rush near the end, and then an all new boss. There's some new rooms with a new theme.

    Guise: The game doesn't get more difficult as you upgrade, no.

    Well, now I've super powered up my fighter, and it doesn't seem to help at all. I still can't come close to beating the first boss. Well, actually I have no idea if I'm close or not... He doesn't seem to have a health bar that I can see.

    I really wish I could restart right from the boss because I have little desire to play this first level over again.

    I think the game would be more successful if the levels were much more random. The first level may be slightly scrambled each time, but it's basically pretty much the same stuff over and over. It's also very linear, with the doors locking you in until you defeat all the monsters and can go to the next room. I think it would be much better if there was more exploration, and if you could simply avoid an enemy like Humphrey if you wanted.

    Oh yeah, good idea. You should be able to skip the bosses. Cause... That would be great, right?

    Bosses are a HUGE part of the game / reward system. Why on EARTH would you want to be able to skip bosses?

    Walk in a straight line, Skip. Skip. Skip.
    All bosses skipped, all classes unlocked, game done.

    Sounds like a shitty experience if you ask me.

    I don't know of a video recorder that fits your exact specifications of
    - installed on your iphone
    - not jailbroken
    - free
    - iPhone 5 7.1.1

    If the app you tried installing is what I think it is, there won't be any sound even if it worked. You could use another phone for camcording lol Just shell out some bucks already and record man. Airplay for cheaps or an HDMI capture card for reliable quality.

    Because i can't pass him and I am bored out of my mind playing the first level over and over again. Zero exploration doesn't help.

    The game is incredibly linear right now. What I was suggesting was allowing real exploration. A randomly generated world with real exploration.

    Right now it's basically a straight line to an impassable bottleneck. At least that's my experience.

    Well, you can skip him if you really want to. You're not supposed to be able to, and if you can't beat Humphrey I don't think you'll get too far in the second dungeon, but it is a possibility.

    Maybe.

    But I beat every level of David on hard. If you play on hard it's one hit deaths, and the game is way faster paced and the controls way more complicated than this. But since David is all super-fast-paced boss battles, I got to retry over and over again in rapid succession. It's the long, long walk that I have to do over and over again just to reach the first boss that bothers me in Wayward Souls.

    I really want to like it. I liked all the developers' other games.

    My eyes glimmer every time I open the game. IMHO, it's one of the top games I've played on mobile, ever. Besides a few triple A mobile games.

    Why not just have a screen that says "YOU WIN" upon startup - that way you could avoid all the enemies.

    Not to rant but it sounds like ur saying that ur great at very difficult games....but not this one xD for example...."this (insert great game here) needs an option to skip piece of its game. I have beaten(insert a game noone heard about here) on hard with no problems at all. Come on man, this game is all about hardcore trial and error. There is a reason you cant skip the level! You ever played dark souls? :)
