i am so insanely confused. like many others have said, i love the artstyle from what i can see in the screenshots, but am i the only one who is getting a game that looks/seems nothing like those screenshots? OP i have no idea how, but when i launch this i am getting a JRPG, based in RPGMakerMV, completely in japanese called 新世勇者传 Newera Heroes' Chronicle. if there's any info i can give you let me know. i hope i get a chance to play this cause it sounds/looks amazing!

How does the game relate to the theme (Haunted)?
Haunted woods have ghost and ghost are a big part of the game
What optional themes/'powerups' were used, if any (Psychedelic and Machine)?
I was going to implement this, but I Procrastinated

Ok WOW! THATS SUPER WEIRD?????? I Honestly don't know I'm not getting any clear answer form google and everyone whose played the game Had not gotten this issue and I don't know how because I never heard of this game in my life also it running on RPG Maker MV confuse me to because I have never once used RPG Maker MV I have only ever used MZ??? I would suggest maybe trying to re download it. But if it still does that don't bother this really makes like 0 Sense, I am as confused as you. I really hope you actually get to play the game <3
_honestly_, right? i straight up thought i'd made a mistake and opened idk a totally random game demo or something somehow. i'd also never heard of it so when it opened on the title screen i looked it up thinking maybe it was another game of yours and some elements just carried over but obvi all the details were wrong. i've experienced a lot of weird shit in gaming but never had anything like this happen with an executable game. i will try a few other things and ofc let you know what happens.
also i hope this was clear from the first message but just in case: in absolutely no way do i for a second think, nor was i trying to imply, you stole anything or copied files or anything even remotely shady, that comment was pure confusion.
Lol I'm over here really freaking out about these thanks for not thinking of me in that way I'm still super stumped on how any of this could even happen the download file has been updated since I posed it and there's nothing my computer event mentioning (新世勇者传 newera heroes' chronicle ) This is really hurting my brain.
At this point it may seem unnecessary to say but genuinely the artstyle is super charming and eerie in all the right ways. I also find the tone of the story and the world very fitting for the vibe created by the aesthetic, I really do genuinely think if you were to take the time to flesh this out into a full title and polish up the writing, this would do really really well in some circles. Only real note I have which is probably just a byproduct of time constraints, is that it took me a minute into the game to realize everywhere was walkable, and its hard to gauge where the transition points between rooms are. Other than that it this was a great submission! - Cole
Like a lotta folks in here; loved that digitized artstyle, wow. Cool music too, like a choir-singer-lavender-town. Liked the bar-QTE thing to catch ghosts also, have liked those since I was a kid haha. And it worked with a controller, noice. Really really liked this game, awesome work.
At one point I went to bed, and died. Then I laughed. Ghost stopped spawning eventually also, but I was able to sell Mr Ghoul an infinite amount of times so I was still able to make it to the end.
Man I really love this artstyle!! You should post detailed devlogs on how you made and animated everything in real life I would be so down to understanding you rprocess! However, I wasn't able to get a cursor showing in the game window, and the interact key didn't seem to work for me (clicking worked for me intermittently...?)... I also love your commitment to brownxDD at least in the first part of the game where I got to see! please let me know how to get past the controls issue because I actually really want to see the rest of the game!!
hmmm the interact key is z if you want to change it it should allow you to in options if that still doesn’t work please let me know! Besides that thank you so much for the complement I really appreciate a dev log would be fun what sucks is that I have to clean up my work area so I could really show much most of the sets were destroyed by me on Saturday lol
the art style is really nice i love it
it was hard for me at the start but i really loved it
This was so cool!!!!! Like holy shit man! I'd actually love to see the irl versions of some of the stuff like Jel! Aside from the amazing style, the npcs and world felt really cool too! The only issues I had were the ghosts not spawning fast enough. I think you should have each ghost have it's own individual timer for respawning rather than as a group. Also, I think the ghosts should respawn every day no matter what or have the time continue even if you're not in the room. This would really help with immersion! Also, is Mr Ghoul's capture supposed to be a rare event? On my first playthrough I was able to capture him in the ghost area but he never showed up back there in my next 2 playthroughs. Also, there is an exploit with Mr.Ghost where you can infinitely sell him to Buford. I died before I could spend the money tho XD. Amazing work!!!!!
lol I’m so happy you liked the game the ghost spawning can get kinda of annoying and I really should fix’s the MrGhoul glitch lol but yeah every I belive a few minutes different things will happen with the npc on of thoes events is MrGhoul but that you so much I’m really happy you appreciate the game 🩷
I absolutely ADORE the artstyle! The vibe kinda reminds me of the game "Hylics." It felt very wholesome but surreal at the same time? The sounds are also fitting with the environment though some sound effects like the successful quick time event in catching the ghost felt a bit disconnected. The mechanics do need a bit of work since it feels like a fetch quest at the moment. I think all the ghosts for me didn't respawn correctly or I might've done something accidently wrong? But anyways, this was still heaps of fun and I would highly encourage you to develop this further!! Overall, great work!!
