Really well implemented turn based game that uses placeholder graphics to demonstrate a broad overview of what could be an amazing game!
Very good looking game! I really enjoyed the music too! My only suggestion would be to add some sort of information popup for when certain actions happen; like when you take damage or when a monster takes damage the game stops to notify you in some way before carrying onto the next member's turn. Overall this was a pretty neat prototype!
I love the art and overall look-and-feel :)
This game is sick!! I'm a sucker for unique mechanics in turn based RPGs, and this nails it right on the head! I love the fact that you can get so many companions throughout the levels all with unique abilities making combat fun and dynamic. I might have been playing wrong though, is there a way to leave some companions behind in order to take new ones? If not, it would add so much! I personally love the sprite work that you did get in and I think it's hilarious that you play as a cylinder, NEVER REMOVE IT IT'S SO CUTE. I loved the game, the final boss was super fun, I loved running around and getting all the keys, and I loved the "secret" fight. Keep workin hard you're cookin with gasoline!
Glad you liked it, especially the "Click bait" fight. I wanted to add way to swamp party member, but I was running short int time. As for the cylinder, they are my test sprite. Matter of fact, if I didn't finish the enemy sprite 2.5 hours before the deadline, the enemy too would have been in cylinder.
OMG, this game is so epic!
Very well done, the visuals and music go well together, and even if it is a little bit simplified it works beautifuly!
I liked the party mechanic and the combat, this is a very solid prototype. It would be much better with some actual character art, and animations, but I understand that the time available did not make these possible. Anyway I hope you will continue this game, it is already very good :)
Thank you, I am not the only one who fell that way. Yeah, I ran short in time, if I finished the enemy sprite 2.5 hours before the deadline.
