Davina the Lazy Knight appears to be the developer's first foray into RPG Maker and it's evident that they are in the process of learning the engine and getting their feet wet. For a first effort, this game shows a lot of promise and enthusiasm, and it's commendable that they took the initiative to create and submit a game for the Harold Game Jam.
The mechanics, graphics, and music are all default RPG Maker assets, which is to be expected for a beginner project. Despite this, the developer has managed to put together a cohesive and functional game. The default assets are used effectively to create a classic RPG experience, and the story of Davina the Lazy Knight offers a charming and humorous premise, although it would probably benefit from a text scroll at the beginning to set the narrative.
While the game doesn't break new ground in terms of innovation or customization, it serves as a solid foundation for the developer to build upon. Creating a complete game is a significant achievement and it's clear that the developer has the potential to grow and refine their skills.
In conclusion, "Davina the Lazy Knight" is a commendable first effort. The developer has demonstrated the ability to create a complete and functional game, which is a crucial first step in learning any new game engine. I encourage them to keep working on their craft and experimenting with new mechanics in future projects.
