Hello from tonight's stream!

So before I start, just wanna note I had some technical issues getting this displayed for the stream. Not sure what you're using to make this, but might need to check into what's causing the problem.

So I grew up playing a lot of RPGs in this style, so at first I was down for this. However, there were some glaring problems from early on that made it not fun.

The first issue was that in the beginning, fights take a long time. When you're trying to kill a slime and only doing 1-2 damage a hit and it has something like 12+ HP, it gets tedious very fast. The starting strength needs to be higher so that players aren't slogging away too long on just beginner enemies. The grind can really weaken this game. This is made even worse when considering they give 2 EXP each and you need 30 to level up. So that's 15 enemies with each taking between 4-6 turns to beat.

The second issue was a confusing world map. Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall anyone saying to go east to get to Thebes. Took me a while to find it.

Finally, I encountered a bug in the sewers. When I was fighting a slime, two more came along. However, while I was able to kill the new slimes, the original slime suddenly had infinite HP and it was either I flee or die. After this point, I chose to give my rating on the game.

Hey there,  thanks for the feedback. 
I'm using rpgmaker XP which is an older engine and doesn't really have the best options in terms of scaling for different resolutions.

I'm sorry you didn't like the battles, I will be re-balancing the enemies, not sure what caused the infinite slime but I'll test around to see what happened. If you could link me to the stream so i could check the exact troop/ area it would be appreciated.

Glaring problems is a bit of an indictment, I'm sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it. 

Don't get me wrong, I do see how this game can be fun. It's just where things are right now, everything feels very tedious in the beginning which can turn many players off from the game.

Here is a link to my VOD with the time included: In case this doesn't work, the time in video is 4:22:51

Thank you, found the bug and fixed it.
