There’s a great-looking mini-boss fight where each time it pounds the ground some of the ceiling collapses, shining light onto the floor. Then, if you stand in the light you won’t get hit by bits of the ceiling!
We also see the town of act two, where there are some characters to talk to. You’re given options for how to proceed in the act by picking a destination. The caravan will then travel to that destination, letting you hop out to continue.
