I loved everything about your game the way the fights are and the sound the graphics very well done it's very challenging and fun good jobb!
W production
Best crustacean game i ever played !
This definitely doesn't feel like a game jam game, this is a whole entire regular game! I really liked the action queue system, it felt very inventive and made every turn feel like a puzzle instead of just clicking attack over and over. Definitely very hard - my run ended a few fights after the second boss - but that made it interesting. I also liked the characters involved! My only issue was that the action queue of the enemies didn't always progress like I expected, though I'm not sure if that's a bug or I just didn't understand the way it worked. Amazing job all around.
Thanks for the feedback ! Yep the game is on the hard side, it was quite challenging to balance it in that timeframe :P ! For the enemies, their attack queue progress after they end their turn :). I guess that was missing in the tutorial !
How did you four manage to develop this game in a week lol. It's very polished! The gameplay is unique and enjoyable though a bit punishing at times (I died to the last boss after three tries) and the art style and soundtrack are very fitting. This feels like a demo for a full game and you can definitely turn it into one and put it on Steam.
I'd really love to see a way to revive party members! I lost the guy that gives you mana pretty early on and felt like I missed quite a big part of the mechanics.
Thanks for the praise and suggestions ! We're aware how death is very punishing at the moment and we're thinking about ways to balance that. Death door's system from Darkest Dungeon and K.O. system from Sea of Star are good inspirations in that regard.
Love the art. A very polished game made in one week O_o
I really loved your intro and art, great entry.
Awesome game. Very cool introduction. Fun gameplay and pretty art. Good music too
a really fyub combat system!! cool ! ! !
I was trying to play this without the tutorial an I thought that only one of the characters from the 3 was mine an tried to attack my friends, lol, I had no idea what was going on. then I went through the tutorial and really enjoyed the game, really great job on making it, the graphics were great, I understood the queue of abilities at the end, I was thinking I could select a specific ability. The only thing I would change I think is the bg music, with some variations or another not so repetitive, but again, really well done!!
Beautiful art and the combat system is well thought out. The game is very polished and the story is well written. I had a lot of fun playing.
Awesome game, this is the most polished one that I saw!
Amazing work!!! So much thought and detail went into the combat, and there was a ton of personality in the characters - very cinematic, too
Very impressive stuff
Wow, this was really polished, the battle system was so interesting, and the art looks great too. Good Job!
Incredibly fun. Art is great. The battle system is very interesting. Bosses are cool. Loved the ending. Amazing work!
Really impressive entry- I had a lot of fun playing your game. Each of the moves and items were unique and interesting. Well done!
We're really thankful for the praise ! Very happy that you enjoyed playing our game :) !
cant believe you made it in a week, amazing work!
dont know what can beat this tbh
Thanks a lot me maties !
Very Fun and Polished Game !
I can easily say that this game was the best I played so far.
Very easy to understand and it very fun to play, you even had the time to do a tutorial which is for me completly crazy given that you only had one week to do it.
Art is also looking very good and completly fit the game.
Good Job everyone !
Thanks a lot for your kind message! Yeah, the tutorial took us a good whole day to make, but I think that was worth it. The game, although not that complicated, needs a little bit of onboarding at first!
Wow, super fleshed out and well-made!! Making a fun RPG is hard, but making a fun one in only a week is even more impressive! I love the characters and story as well, made me a little sad when my shell friends died t^t My only suggestion is maybe make the text bigger, because it was a bit difficult to read at times. Amazing entry!!
Thanks for you kind words and your suggestion ! Yeah losing a hero is devastating (especially our cute little bottle cap boy !)
