GBS is a lot more capable than people might think, if devs are willing to try different things ^^

uploaded, but I can't test it. Hopefully that works for you ^^

Love the idea of this <3

Congrats ^^ really interesting combination of game mechanics

Glad it could help ^^

Enjoy, happy developing ^^

Glad to hear it, thanks for playing :)

Did the labyrinth before the last boss give you much trouble?

Thanks so much for all the feedback :) let me know your thoughts after you complete Roll City's content.

I think switching to have the text draw instantly might be worth doing, tbh. That would also prevent overflow issues, which can be seen by skipping unfinished dialogue too quickly...

Also, I did think about obfuscating undiscovered faces (I do this in BUMPERS & BROADSWORDS MAXIMUM) but that would be easier to do if I'd planned on it from the start (just because faking array style data is soooo much easier if you use all the memory addresses at the start). At least you can hold Up/Down to keep scrolling :P that wasn't a feature for quite a while...

I think you should be able to press B to make the current dialogue instantly complete, then only the A button will skip to the next

Inspired by Pokémon and its Liquid Ooze ability ;)

what are these random letters?

Honestly I'd like to, but that might be a little beyond my skill level

Added a version without the filter :)

was punching the door the best option you had at the time?

Inkeeper Entity cards (for 1 GEM), Food Action cards, and (in the future) Healing Scroll Action cards. The cards dropped by Bat Monsters also drain some HP as part of that attack when you use it on a viable target :)

I'll fix this in the next update :)

working on that ;)

Can't imagine not having this plugin after using it, 11/10

nope, do whatever you want with it. All photosources for textures included are just grabbed from textures.com

I'd kill to know how you handled the ball/bouncing physics

writing "any key" wasn't 100% accurate on my part - it listens for any inputs the game already uses (e.g. z, x, esc)

Thanks for playing :) I've started remembering which Sigil is correct for School Scissors by using your nicknames for them

All enemies get a little HP/ATK buff based on how many Keys the player has

Ha, you're right. Just did a little test run and my change to let Trades happen even if you have that Bumper equipped seems to have caused this by accident. Oops :P

Great to hear :) thanks for trying it out

A turn-based tactical rpg about jets, but just made out of cutscenes, customisation, and battles. I like weird stuff :)

Thanks for checking it out :) It's only on Windows right now because I don't have any other devices so any build would be untested. Though there is a port for linux handhelds if that helps - https://portmaster.games/detail.html?name=bnbmax

Love the fusion of genres here :) and little touches like the banners telegraphing enemy spawns. Wasn't expecting the first boss to just appear like that but it was a cool moment. Sometimes the art makes it hard to tell certain things apart if I have to be quickly reacting to positions of enemies & the fireball, but I managed. IMO a graphical overhaul would help you out a ton, something like this reference  maybe

Obligatory throwing of my hat into the ring:

the price is a piece of your sanity

may the Heart of the BUMPERS bless you, my child

I like that you appreciated the juxtaposition of the adult noir detective in a tournament for children :D

Also good taste in going for the Machine types (even if it was kinda accidental)

Thanks for playing :)

Which Bumpers did you prefer to use?

Ah, so you got to the Guards in the Warrior biome. That's about the point where semi strong Bumpers get introduced (e.g. SWORD SAINT). If you get to the end of that biome and beyond you'll see enemies making better choices and using BUMP UP. Hope you can get the data saving working somehow :)

Ah, maybe. It relies on an ini file that gets created in local appdata directory on Windows. Sorry about that :/

Data can be saved in any Rest Room or before any Eliminator battle :)
