Thanks for playing!

Yep, you guessed right, and Merry Christmas to you too! 

Thanks for your answer!

Thanks for playing!

Can I ask which one was the mini game you found enjoyable and why the other one wasn’t?

Thanks for playing!

Yeah, I know the story got cut in an awkward place and doesn’t fit the title too much. Next year I’m going to expand on this universe and try to make a better story.

Thanks for playing!

Also thanks for the advice, starting with the ending is definitely a good idea. That way even if I didn’t have enough time to do all I wanted, I could write a scene to connect the ending to what I have and the story would be better. I’m absolutely doing the mini games last next year, they took too long and are a main reason I had to cut the story so much.

Thanks for playing!

I know the title doesn’t really reflect the game too much, but in the original story I wrote, it was a perfect fit. For next year I hope to have more time and make a longer story in this universe.

Thanks for playing!

About the battle system, I used the free ARPG plugins that GGG released for MZ. Also thanks for the detailed feedback!

Thanks for playing!

I guess there wasn’t much for the player to really do, but you could actually interact with a bunch of the furniture.

Thanks for playing!

Those crystals have been causing a lot of trouble… I should probably just change them to black and white if I ever do something like this again. About the quiz, what changes is that, depending on your grade, about 1 or 2 lines of dialogue are different when Harold asks Lucius about his day.

Thanks a lot!

For next year I’ll possibly expand on this universe. I had even made designs for Marsha and Therese already.

Thanks for playing!

I had actually planned to implement a setting where the crystals were black and white instead, but I didn’t have enough time. I had to submit several days earlier because I was going on vacations and couldn’t take my computer. 

Thanks for playing!

I could only work on this for half the month and had to cut half the story, maybe I’ll release a version with the finished story after the jam ends. 

Thanks a lot!

If I’m being honest, this is only half of the story I originally wrote, but due to time I had to cut a lot of things.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for playing!

Thank you very much for all the kind words! You really made my day.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks for playing!

For next time, I’ll try to keep in mind that it’s not so easy to guess what everyone would like, and include more clues.

Thanks for playing!

I believe he got chocolates, a coloring book and a new sword, but maybe next Christmas jam we’ll find out. 

Thanks for playing!

I’m very glad you liked it!

I’ll watch the video as soon as I can, it will be helpful to see how someone else played the game, thanks!

Thanks for playing!
I had only about a week to make the whole thing before a trip I had, so I’m glad I was able to de something enjoyable.

Thanks for playing!

• I must say, no one has reported text appearing twice before... I'll investigate to see why that happens.
• Thanks for liking that battle. 
• Also thank you for liking the story, it's my favorite part. 
• I swear I thought everyone was going to hate the combat system. I guess I'm not that bad at doing combat after all.

Thanks for all the feedback!

Thanks for playing!
First off, you weren't supposed to lose. I mean, I programmed the battle with the player lossing in mind, but you can win. Although the story progresses the same way even if you manage to beat them. Also, yes, you weren't supposed to be able to skip the Demon lord. Thanks to you, that bug is now fixed.

I need to ask, vibrant how? I just really don't get what you mean. On the other side, a little fun fact: the music on the plaza (map with the airship) is actually VX Ace's Town five with a little pitch adjustment, courtesy of MZ's music-picking settings. Another fun fact, you are the first person who liked Harold telling them "Hey, not this way!" on almost every map. 

I can't tell you just how thankfull I am you told me the Demon Lord reappears. That is definitely not supposed to happen.

Finally, yes, I realized that bug only when reading the comments, so the "final" version still has it. Right now, I'm working on fixing all the bugs people have found and getting rid of all those typos only my family noticed. I'll upload a 0.3 version once the jam is over and I'm done fixing everything.

Thanks for all the feedback!

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!

So apparently I'm dumb and forgot to upload the latest version. Since I'm late and disqualified anyway I'll put a link to it here, please play this version, the other one has some sad bugs.
