I really appreciate your feedback. One of my plans is to go back and tweak the skills. I started them at lvl 50 to set the experience for the main characters predecessor so the player had some context of what the characters potential should become. If this makes any sense. At the same time, I also only wanted the player to experience this for only a short time for the storyline so when the player ventured out they had some idea of what their goals are.
With this being a game jam, I was more focused on getting content and playtime into the project once I can finish creating the game play to the end, I plan on going back and use more tile sets and finalize and polish the areas, as well as finalizing the classes and skills, work on the background music, cutscenes and hopefully a load of side quests. To include each party members exclusive weapon for end game.
Spoiler for anyone who did get past the first part and wake up as the main character. The ring quest is the beginning of one the ex weapon side quests. More will unfold on it as I create more areas and come up with storyline of the progression.
As for the short comings I will be taking everyone’s advise and come up with better solutions. It may be a while before I release a more up to date version of this project but if anyone wants to be able to test it later, I think I can accommodate. More to come.
