Hi Halfbrick,
I really liked your game as a proof of concept and I can't wait to see where you take it with future updates.
I wrote a little review on my blog. You can read it here if you're interested:

Oh! Thank you! I'm glad you found it interesting!
I had actually initially planned to have a full combat system when I was first thinking of making Vertegraz, but time limits meant I never made the systems it'd need - probably for the best.
Similiarly, I planned for the player to have to explore in sections, starting at the legs and working up the body of Vertegraz, unlocking new paths and encountering new entities. That's still in the works, though...
The only thing I would ask is that you provide a link to Vertegraz within the article itself - I didn't see one in my readthrough of your article.
That was an oversight on my part, thanks for the heads up. I have now included a link to this page.
