I had so much fun with this. I liked the character design. Nice bonus that you could swap hats with the fallen :) That gave me a laugh.There was a lot of satisfaction in beating the boss. Well done!

Please try my game if you have the chance.

Neat idea! Would be cool to see this with all features implemented, the idea of swapping hats to swap roles is very fitting with the theme, moreso than a lot of games on here.

I enjoyed this :) Fun idea, good graphics and music too.

Not so sure about the way the boss fight swaps two random hats of yours, as it undoes the strategy and learning I've been learning in the leadup to a tough boss. I would have been very ok with that if that was an ability the boss would use from time to time, rather than the fight button hitting me with it. Aside from that, I really enjoyed it :)

Best hat swapping JRPG game I have ever played, period.

Boss is hard AF.

A really good idea here. I feel like I could have done with a bit clearer visuals on what my characters were going to do, and in what order, but great job nonetheless.
