The red floors going off into the distance, I have hope I can continue the map! Invisible wall. Why does this happen? It's very frustrating.
I have absolutely no idea how to use my inventory, I've gotten all these weapons but how do I use them? How come if I open a chest but continue movement the dialogue box closes? I hit Q thinking it would possibly scroll through my inventory and I accidentally closed the game.
Kind of slow after a point. I can't be bothered to collect 10,000 golds just to reach level 4. The enemies seem to be simultaneously invincible and unable to attack, and can be safely ignored. I wonder how my character (happy face) is carrying all these swords. I like the concept a lot though.

I want to like this more than I do; I really do. It's a great concept, and I congratulate you for trying it out. It just has a lot of problems with it.
1. I had no idea how to use any of the weapons I was getting. I've tried most of the buttons on my keyboard, with no luck.
2. I never had to use the weapons, since the player character is so much faster than the monsters. I literally ran circles around the dungeon until the game crashed.
3. The game crashed because I hit Spacebar over the 'Press Shift to Exit Shop' prompt; it threw an error and shut the whole thing down. That's... a pretty big bug.
4. Even without the above, the game is really monotonous. Even just one variation on the graphics would've worked wonders.
It's a nice start, though, I'll give you that much.

The game seems to close if you press W or some key in the vicinity.
Enemies seem to do nothing at all? My HP is always full and they never disappear.
You should probably verify that this build isn't broken(you forgot godmode on?)
Ah, it wasn't in godmode per se, but it that was a real issue making the player invincible.
I also updated and fixed the issue with crashing in the shop.
The concepts there, the theme is there, the only issue i have is that the controls are almost like a second thought. (traditional controls would have been nice) using both <> to select weapons was un-intuitive for me.
Couldn't figure out how to actually use the weapons i collected, but loved how each room "respawned" as i left.
Nice concept :D
the keys are not really intuitive, the theme is well respected, the game could be more fun if we could attack with a sword!

Kinda slow... But not bad.
Pretty Sweet, nice work. I hope you continue to develop the game after the Jam is over.
