ONE recall potion?
I'm stuck in the middle of the game and cannot continue further without returning to the store but so far the game has only given me ONE recall potion? WTF? I have like 60 health potions and 30 rejuvs but so far have only found ONE recall potion that allows me to go back to the store at the Inn? Again I ask you... WTF?

there are a few different shortcuts to the town hub, the scarcity of recall helps make it feel more like an adventure, you have to make decisions on whether to return to base/what to leave behind etc

Alternative you can always use the save/load character "Exploit" to farm them.

You can buy recall potions from the shopkeepers.

Well that's my problem - I'm a long way from the shop - but I discovered I need a ranged weapon to continue the game (I'm stuck at the impossible row of Kobolds guarding the switches). Do I have to manually back track ALL the way to the store to buy a bow and then back track all the way to that spot again because I don't have a recall potion?

Well I guess nevermind? I backtracked all the way to the store and came back with a bow but I still get slaughtered by that killer row of Kobolds mercilessly chucking spears at me from all directions. If the game is this hard at this early stage - what fresh hells await me further on? Not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

You can shift the crates to use them as barracks.
Using the environment and the heights to overcome the enemies is a nice strategy imo

How do we shift the crates?

Some crates are movable by just walking into them. Enemies won't move them.

Are you guys still working on the game or has work on it been concluded? There are a couple of bugs left and there is a rare save corruption issue affecting a couple of people. The port is 'this' close to being completely fixed.

Also, the rare promotional music CD for Dark Alliance, which was only used internally at the company, has been uploaded on the internet, so you could even try to put in higher quality music if you wanted, lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pisBeozQw_M

I don't know how much work it would actually be though. Probably not just a copy paste job.
