Malisense
_________🕯️🕯️🕯️_________
ABOUT
The dungeon is upon us. In a corrupted world, the ordinary citizens of Radefell were turned to beasts during the city’s downfall at the hands of the Malignance: an enraged, sense-deprived entity. The beasts, no longer human, now possess only a single sense. Those who survived the Convergence have lost most of their senses, too, and the sanity of the remaining citizens hangs in the balance as they take refuge in a village just beyond the devastation of the city proper.
In this 2D top-down dungeon crawler, you, the Disgraced, must find sacred artifacts in order to thwart the Malignance and reclaim your home.

The game is alright, but it softlocks after using the hand when the door needing 4 gems is already open. I think I probably need to use the hand to pull the lever in that room so I don't get trapped and can progress in looking for the eye, but I can't because every time I push r the character's movement is disabled but no hand spawns and the movement never is re-enabled.
