I think you met the brief perfectly: a glorious exercise in minimalistic design that's probably the truest to the pitch to create something characteristically Rogue! There's plenty of character here too, with the funny sound effects, unorthodox stats, random item drops and hunger-based survival mechanic. Not overly complex nor overengineered, just some very smooth movement and combat, a few laughs and a straightforward, accessible roguelike design. Feedback wise, no point recommending more stuff when this does exactly what it sets out to do and plays like a charm. Great stuff.
