Thanks for playing!
I did warn the fights were most likely terrible as I made the enemies in 10 minutes, though even if you lose the story is supposed to continue. Fight results just get you some different dialogue. Also, since I spent most of the time just writing the story, I created cheats so you can skip battles. In the options menu you can activate them, and Harold gets two skills called "Auto win" and "Auto death", in "Special", so you just play the story.
Thanks also for the bug report, I must have deleted that battleback when I was desperately trying to get Itch to upload my game.
Thanks for all the feedback!
