I don't mind grinding in games, enjoyed Superpowered. But the biggest problem in this game is slow transitions and also forced texts in front of doors, in rooms which can only be skipped by clicking on enter. SP didn't have this problem so you can play really fast after getting used to mechanics. But with this one I already got tired of transitions, annoyed me too much.
Yes renders are much better than SP, but gameplay is slower, worse than SP like it's built for punishing the player. Good luck to the dev, but I'll keep my distance from this one until some issues solved.
