Schattenläufer: I will definitely going to try those games you mention. Although I should say that the English speaking community think highly of german games, because there is usually alot more work put into them.

About my demo, I agree with you the hybrid battle system doesn't work on some level, that's why I have changed it completely to a ABS. And just so you know, the enemies you face can only attack you within a 5 tiles radius, so running a way is a good way to escape attack.
