Excellent art!
the game is very well made and technically impressive, but gameplay is slow and a bit confusing at first, no forfeit button for when you realize you lost is a bit unfortunate
also minor issue, ive noticed some screen tearing at parts, most noticeable in the map
Thank you for playing! Pressing the space button will return you to the map from a battle if you press it at any point. Sorry you experienced some graphical errors
Absolutely amazing! The mechanics are super fun once you get the hang of them and really well polished too. I do wish the first area wouldn't repeat the unskippable tutorial, since I ended up accidently returning to the map trying to remember the controls.
I had a little bit of trouble playing this one, the window was a fixed size with the game screen offset partially outside the window bounds. Regardless, the graphics are incredible, and I absolutely love the entire concept for the game! The control scheme is a little awkward to me, but this definitely has that core Fire Emblem feel, and yet puts a unique spin on it with boat mechanics. I really love how that's communicated through mechanics, like how you have to mind your ship's direction to use certain weapons. I had a lot of fun playing it, and I hope to see it expanded more!
I'm so sorry that the game window didn't work out properly for you. Its supposed to set the window and gamescreen size on start up based on your monitor up to 1920x1080. There must have been some issues with different monitor sizes that our team didn't encounter. But thank you very much for playing our game!
I can tell a lot of love was put into this! I think it is really well made and I don't have much negative to say other than wishing the "start" button prompted me to go to overworld since I hit it in the middle of a fight and had to restart. Really well done though! Loved the varying combat encounters!
