Show HN: Playtest my browser-based RPG

https://archipelago-sandy.vercel.app/
3•blinkbat•1h ago
hey there, I'm making an isometric rpg, tentatively titled Archipelago. it is very bare-bones for now, but I wanted to get some outside feedback on the foundations of the systems as I work. if you're a fan of combat-heavy crpgs, please do give it a whirl. looking forward to discussing it with anyone who plays. thank you!

NOTE! made with web tech, requires modern browser. only keyboard+mouse controls for now. unfinished in every way, from systems to graphics to sound.
