Great work! This game oozes charm (even the 'bad' art can be pretty charming) and is impressive for a one-person job.
The world, writing, and especially characters are delightful - much more than I would have thought just looking at the visual presentation and memey-ness. The humor is a nice touch without dragging down the plot/characters and keeps the bleak world from feeling oppressive.
The battle mechanics are enjoyable! While there may be some tension with the lack of easy party restore systems, there are frequent save points and the game overall is not (mechanically, but perhaps emotionally at times) punishing, at least on normal mode. So don't be scared off on that account.
I hope to see more from you in the future, but I know life is busy and appreciate what you've shared. Thank you!
