So I found some kind of bug involving scrapping. I had two writhing tentacles, and scrapped it twice - one at a time - and somehow ended up with 0 being listed in my inventory as 1. I *think* I had also been moving other items around in my inventory immediately before this. Maybe something about this caused it to be left in my inventory as an item when it should have been removed? Specifically, I think I moved slot 7 into slot 5, then slot 2 into slot 5, with the tentacle ending up in slot 6. Then I scrapped the item in slot 7 followed by the tentacle in 6.

Argh, I thought I fixed this. A friend reported it again, but she was on a prior version, so I crossed my fingers about it being due to that. Writhing Tentacle specifically, right? Nothing else has done this? I'll look into it later, see if I can't squash this one.
E: Ugh. I managed to reproduce the bug!... once. I'm not sure of the exact triggers, but it definitely involves moving Scrappable items, and it only seems to happen with Scrapping, not Selling. It can either reduce the item's stack to 0, or it can remove the item improperly and result in a space with no item and a minus stack on it. Further investigation proceeding.
The Level Cap feature in settings is an adjusting level cap that changes with your main mission progression. It prevents you from overlevelling beyond the intended challenge of a section.
MERCANOID has a hard cap of 10, and this isn't bypassed through that option.

I'm also a solo dev and I understand.
I've gotten two frameworks partially done for a pair of games I'm working on (five games planned but working on two currently) and I'm also not the most artistically talented despite years of trying. I'm doing a few pixel-art and cartoon-style pieces and have been playing around with Daz 3D and Koikatsu stuff. I can get away with basic backgrounds at least; most likely keeping the art very simple and minimal in general.
If worse comes to worst I'll use 3D renders but I'd rather use drawn art.
Do you remember if you had an Incredibly Poisonous Mushroom on you, at all? I think I've narrowed it down to a problem with that item specifically - when an item swaps positions with it, bad things happen.
E: Oh, no, nevermind. Something WAS wrong with that item, but the rot runs a lot deeper. Houuuugh...
EE: AHA. Well! Turns out I'm a bimbo. So, if you want the Sausage Factory Behind The Scenes:
Basically, when a Consumable item is swapped, I added in some extra code to handle applying the Stack for that both items onto their new destinations. HOWEVER!... this was only ever one way. I somehow never noticed that when you swap two consumable items, the result is that the item that performs the swap is fine, but the item that gets swapped as collatoral gets its stack replaced by the item it was swapped with.
ie: You have 4 Cores and 8 Paravines. You swap Core right. You now have 4 Cores and 4 Paravines, and the Paravine's variables are very confused by this.
I'm gunna need to make some minor additions but it should be fine. Thanks for the report! It'll be fixed by 1.0.7.

I've got plenty more in the pipe!
It is not. I didn't write the 'all' next to Downloads, that's the Uploaders. With that said, the game's OS are listed as Windows, Mac and Linux, and there's a note that while the game -will- launch on mobile devices, it isn't designed with them in mind. The images aren't loading because your phone isn't seeing the assets folder that contains said assets. I don't know if there's a way around that - I don't know the file structure of Android and IOs. You're not going to be able to play in portrait/vertical anyway, the sidebars are clearly taking up all the space.

Thank you! A lot of the time spent on making MERCANOID was spent on its framework, which, as you've guessed, is for future projects. It means I can make more games of bigger scope quicker, in theory. MERCANOID is a demo of me, that I'll be able to point to and go 'this is what you should expect from my games'.
Yup, already been reported, much to my embarrassment. It's fixed and waiting for 1.0.7, probably later tonight.

I just finished a review, but if I may, I want to thank you for the wonderful game, you did a fantastic job in my opinion and I hope to see more from you in the future! I hope you have a pleasant day~
I'm thrilled you enjoyed it, and thank you for the review. ♥ More is on the way, but I'm recovering from an illness at the moment, so I'm taking things slow.

Well! In that case, I wish you a speedy recovery in addition~ do take care of yourself and as stated prior, may your day be a good one!
1.0.7 is now live! Changelog of OP updated - and the 'known issue' addition is also probably taken care of, but leaving it there just in case.
- Fixed some typos in Codex sections.
- Fixed a major item bug that was overwriting swapped items stack totals.
- Fixed a bug that was causing Bleed to not reset between fights, also causing stacks to get absurdly high. Those who'll miss the big numbers should be aware that this bug worked both ways, on Enemies AND Players!
- Fixed Summon Drones AGAIN, now it correctly deals 15 damage instead of *healing* the enemy by 15.
