Hey there! Before I give you suggestions I have some questions I should ask... If you want to answer them of course.
Are you limited to X amount of items you can place or can you have any amount of items you can place or create. (Example is could have like 30 different types of pots in a single dungeon if it fits with the stuff?) {Yes, 30 is a bit over the top but this is an example. : ) }
So, because I want to be in more touch with the developers I think I'll start to give them my feed back regarding stuff they do because why not.
March 5th feedback
Simply looking at this picture I believe it fits the normal art style of the dungeon (At least from what I have seen)
Looking at the large purple gems and reading what you said there are 8 barriers that a player (lets say they're soloing because they have no friends) will have to bash through on their own to reach this chest. Looking at this there is also a section that is a double barrier so we can say there are 9 sections that a player has to destroy. Because I haven't encountered these gems yet (I don't think I got this far I guess in Story) I am going to assume that each gem will take 3 or 4 hits since a normal crate is 2 and a bunch of times makes me think is 4 so I'll stick with 4. For a player soloing to get through these crystals and depending on weapon can take quite awhile and may be even marked as slightly tedious if there is nothing else in this room. (I would kinda like to see some sort of monsters in here to make things slightly more interesting) Although because it is not marked that there is a monster in the room I have no idea on that regarding these monsters but I believe there should be something in here so you will pass section 1, fight some monster, enter section 2 fight some monster etc etc since I believe there is enough room to place encounters possibly. Regarding the (From what Villa said it would be a single chest) loot being 1 chest I am hoping to go through this would be worth getting it so hopefully it would be an upgrade that would be suitable to the players.
Now to talk about what I said in the beginning. While I believe this area is a suitable area in this dungeon I believe that the 6 BLUE crystals don't match too well and perhaps they could be 6 SMALL PURPLE crystals as every crystal in here is purple so why are these crystals blue?
Too lazy didn't read: may be too tedious but probably suitable room, should have some monster in each section, possibly change blue crystal to small purple crystal. design of the room is suitable.
Update: I just noticed a random blue crystal just sitting in the group of purple crystals, not sure if that was intentional but due the the large amount of purple crystals perhaps all the crystals in each barrier should just stay purple... (Its in section 6 but you probably have no idea what I mean by that, its right near the chest area though.)
Summery
I believe the March 5th room is good and the idea of it is fair but possibly too tedious but that can easily be overlooked just by how the game design is, perhaps the blue crystals should change and possible monsters.
Thank you for reading if you did and if I should change my feed back in any way (Possibly to not be so bloody long. xD) but hopefully this helped in anyway and keep up the great work Villa! I'll give you more feedback on the next update. Good luck!!
Update: Perhaps in the future to help player feedback you could mark where monsters would be... Unless you're not suppose to or it is not your place to set the monsters down in X section. That or you could have the map without the emonsters and a map with the monsters and then have like a red square where you think the monsters would be.
Please note: It is not my intention to make your work look bad as I am simply criticizing your work if a critical eye you could say. If you do not want me to review your stuff like this or if you want me to do it in another way I can probably do so. If you are unable to take constructive criticism regarding your work or you simply don't take it well then I can some publishing these reviews.
(Please note I never said it is too many but possibly as with the amount of barriers may be perfect but at the same time may not without being in the game.)
7.6 / 10 Executed well,
possibly too many sections, random blue crystal placed?
