My feedback after 12hours Playtime (Minor Spoilers)
So I must say the game is really great. The combat feels good, the level design is good and the game is challenging. I like the diversity in items, the cell system, the gold/shop/golden door mechanic is well thought out. The enchantments on weapons/skills are cool. Barely any weapon/skill feel useless. I like teleporter enabling fast and smooth traveling.
But of course the game in the early access phase has some unbalanced things, too. I just voice my opinion, so dont hate me too much.
Time doors are underwhelming for their effort. Once you get the blueprints, the time doors are pretty useless. The Secret doors are also very hard for just one item.
The whip is overpowered, i just finished game just because of this weapon+dmg buff. Super fast, autoaiming, long range, infinite ammo, oneshotting everything(with buff) and air hover. It made the graveyard so trivial. On the other hand some weapons are really bad. The fire torrent and lightning bolt have awful dmg for their casting animation. Shields feel pretty bad since you can dodge or just stay on range; high risk, low reward (since it takes up a wepaon slot).
The bows and melee weapons feel well balanced though. Same with most spells, though some are obivously a bit stronger like cluster bomb or death orb.
I also have some suggestion to make. I miss some defensive things in this game, we only have amulet effects as damage reduction and 1%life lifesteal on weapon enchantment. I would like to see some defense skills like summoning a wall for a few seconds that blocks enemies and projectiles (yes also the mages ones). A "Back in Time" spell would also sound fun where you get placed where you have been some seconds ago.
Overall the game was worth every penny and Im eager to see new content and balance patches. I know im short on words, because english is not my first language, but thank you for reading my post.

By whip you mean electric one, right?
Im not aware there is another one, so yes.
There's a regular whip
There is the electric whip, which is what you described and another weapon just called "Whip". It attacks in a straight line and does a crit if you hit with it at max range.
