Nice!! I really like your take on the jam theme, especially touches like "Zeffir forgot to equip you with the pine" :D The art style and colour palette you've used are also very cool.

I imagine there'd be quite a few directions you could take this if you did pick it back up again in the future :)

Thank you for giving it a try! I definitely spent most of my dev time making the sprites and tiles and stuff, so it's nice to know they went over okay! I meant to do more Zeffir behaviors but I didn't have a lot of time around my studies ^^;

The master like color pool I used was the "Jehkoba 32 " palette via Lospec (https://lospec.com/palette-list/jehkoba32). They also have a 64 color version but I liked the restriction of just 32, from which I derived the 15 color palettes per sprite, and I think overall I had 4 of those out of the 8 or whatever the SNES apparently had a limit for? It's kinda neat just browsing palettes, I dunno XD

My next project or two in my queue are spooky, but I'd like to do a brighter-colored RPG like Dedicated Healer on a sorta bigger scope at some point. And while I'm not sure I'd make DH it's own full game I'd probably take the scenario of it, flesh the dungeon and village out more, and use it as part of the early game in said larger project.

Oh amazing! Yeah, I love browsing Lospec palettes too, though I'm a programmer rather than artist so don't get very far with them 😆!

Will definitely keep an eye out for whatever you are working on next 😊

I'm more of an artist than a programmer; the most I can do is some clumsy JavaScript surgery to jury-rig my RPG Maker addons into performing the aesthetic stuff I want it to. But I'm also a pretty amateur artist as well, so, c'est la vie ^^;

I have horror stuff on the roster next; I'm hoping to put something out for SCREAMJAM and I'm pecking at another short RPG that just has kind of a grim vibe all around. After that though I'm hoping to make something cheery, maybe around the holidays if I am weirdly on-the-ball in my production schedule XD

I'll put a full playthrough into Karma when I have a moment, but I'd love to see whatever else you cook up too :3

Ooooh exciting – fun to have some variety! I’m taking part in the Revival jam, working on more of a point and click style game for that :) Not quite sure yet what to do after, but feeling something RPGish again!

Oooo the revival jam looks super cool, I have half a mind to join but I'd be startin' behind the 8-ball and I still have midterms kickin' around, and the other jam starts in 7 days...point and clicks are super cool though, so I'll have to remember to stop by and check out your submission once it's served up ^^

Thanks! Yeah Halloween season brings around some cool jam themes :) Good luck with the midterms!
