I really liked the gameplay and the progression of looting and managing party, however I wasn't able to manage details of my party members (after the 5th member) due to a window bug. :(
Really shame because I was looking forward to selling all that loot :P
Oh no - what browser were you playing on? That's not something we've seen yet!
Chrome, maybe it was an error about screen size?
Wow, this is so well made. First the game seems simple, but gets really complex later on with the loot and traits and everything. This is a must-play for every old school rpg fan.
Thank you!
OMG! I can feel the lot of work you put in here!
I love management games and if it was on sale, it's probably something I would buy. I don't have suggestions or critics. It really works well.
Congrats! Your game is a masterpiece!
Thank you so much!
Cool game! So addictive
Thank you!
Very good game !
Thank you!
Do you want to make this game a bigger one ? (sorry for my english)
I think so! Going to rest for a few days, then see if there's still interest from the team.
This game is really good! I could see myself getting addicted to playing this for hours. A bit of refinement I would like to see more would be the tutorial and the difficulty curve. I can't get past the first 3 lines after some of my party members died, and the cycle between looting, recruiting, and losing party members kinda stuck me at the start.
All things considered, the design aspect of this game is really good! I'm quite surprised that there is a game with this high level of complexity in a jam like this. This sure has a lot of potentials if you keep developing it. Good job!
Thanks! Balance is definitely something that got less time than it deserved as we cobbled all the systems together. Some things like the animations were only an hour or two before deadline!
Loot & Progression can be so addictive, I kinda lost the sense of time will trying your game. Well done!
Thank you!
Well, fine looking fantasy manager.
Thanks for checking it out!
my pleasure :) i like this simple WoW/Diablo style items concept
I'm going to play for the third time, just have to finish this game.
Ha yes! If you have any more browser issues, just DM me on discord and I can send over an export of your platform of choice (kargames on Discord as well).
This was fun, but I think the UI could use a bit of work. It would be nice to have an easy way to sort the equipment, especially with the blacksmith being so far down the path. With all of the equipment listed randomly it could be hard to tell what the best piece was for a given slot, especially when you had to scroll. I think it would also be nice to add a way to switch between characters while viewing their stats or equipment, rather than exiting the screen and then selecting the next character.
Definitely! Sorting was sadly something that got cut due to time.
Totally agree on the character switching though. Added to the issue board!
Thanks for checking it out.
