Status Effects

Status effects are displayed on the top left corner of the screen, above the player's HP bar. Positive effects are grey in color, negatives are red.

The duration and power of effects varies by item used; for example, Odd Meat gives a longer Endurance effect than Potato, and while the Pill (Healing)'s regeneration is short-lived, it has a much higher health-per-second rate.

Positive Effects
