Really nice games! But where are the bosses? They feel like normal dudes :( I like the graphics and the music but it would be nice to have faster movements.
Thanks! :D You can use shift to run... There are 3 Bosses in the game :3 The normal dudes are just there to initiate the players with the gameplay and to grind a little.
While I'm not a biggest fan of this style of rpg's, this one somehow hooked me. The world building and art came together to create a really complete experience, sprinkle some polish on top of it and a really great game comes out. The only gripe I would have that the enemies didn't really feel like bosses, but like normal enemies. Still, really good job!
Oh! Thanks for the feedback :D
quite pleased with the visuals, very nice artstyle and coherent sprites, the game idea is nice and works well, overall a nice well made experience, good job!
Thanks for the feedback :D
It reminds me of the gameboy era, the art and the music are great this is a good game overall. I never really liked old school tactical rpg, but I have to admit the game is nice and polished. GG !! :D You gave attention to everything this iis really good
Thanks for the feedback :D
I like your minimalism pixel art !! And i like the dialog too, the boss fight mechanic is so unique too !! Good job
Thanks for the feedbacks :D
Super polished game, good menus, good transitions, good interfaces in general, I don't know how much of that polish is part of the engine, but still, the game does feel pretty good in that aspect
I try to apply the pattern thing into the battles, but it didn't make much difference any fight, I played for 20 men, but I didn't get so see any boss fights. The game doesn't feel like a boss rush at all.
The music was really good, for the type of game / aesthetics.
Not my type of game, but it was fun
Oh! Thanks for the feedbacks :D
