Would very much like a discord, I'd love to chat with everyone doing the jam that way! Don't know why but I'm intimidated by the forum haha. Otherwise, a wonderful jam!

Wow, taking something on like a visual novel/RPG is a huge undertaking! The amount of writing, testing, editing and rewriting you've taken on is commendable. The other thing that's commendable is the art. There's this soft 70's vibe I can't quite put my finger on. It's probably the way you draw cheeks, it's refreshing.
Everything shows a lot of promise! Keep plugging away!
Yes, huge and I should have known better lol! But thank you so much for the compliments, I'm glad you enjoyed the snippet of what is there!
There's not a lot here but what is here is pretty good. The art style is quite a bit different than the other games but I really like it, and it works well for the story. The combat system is janky, but would work well with a little tweaking. The story is very promising as well.
I think there's a ton of potential here and I'd like to play the final game if you decide to continue it.
Yes, hopefully I can get out of just starting something and actually make some gameplay haha! Very janky, I'm trying to tweak it now, but its still proving janky haha. And thank you so much! I'm planning on updating it in the next few days or so!
Great art! This demo is basically an intro to a grand adventure.
By the way, did you remember to reduce the resolution of your images? The game file size was kinda big. DX
Thanks, it is! I never mean for them to get as grand as they do but they always manage to lol.
And I did not! I completely forgot, thanks for reminding me! I'll update that soon~!
Really liked the art on this one, great character designs and backgrounds! What's there seems pretty solid, and I admit I wasn't expecting an RPG style battle, I figured it'd just be a visual novel. Right as the magical girl appears the game ends! Great start though, keep it up!
Aw thanks you so much! I always have trouble with backgrounds so I just make them simple until I can get the hang of more complex ones haha. And yeah, I do adding more gameplay than just vn stuff, and yes! I was hoping to have more story, but I'll be updating it hopefully in the next few days with some more so it doesn't stop so abruptly!
