Thank you so very much! And thank you for mentioning the streams! They're often on at a time I can't watch, I forgot I was going to go find them to watch later, thanks for the reminder!
I'll absolutely keep that in mind for next time! It all ended up being pretty rushed, as we somewhat ended up with just a programmer, someone to do character sprites, and me XD who did the rest.
Either way, it was a lot of fun, and I'm really grateful for the attention the game got on our first attempt. And, ngl, we're already looking forward to next year 🤣
I have to mention the "no unauthorized fireballs" 🤣there's so much more to mention, but just... the jokes, the humor, definitely one of the fun parts for me. The classes/lessons, hints on the board and such, not to mention the dialogue you get with the characters, conversation choices? It's insane how much there is to this 😀like what the heck, in the best way possible. Different abilities, point distributions, combat encounters, just... so much! All in one month!
The art style is really nice too, the colored lineart helps the character sprites pop more, not to mention the unique backgrounds, different horror creatures you fight.
Though with some of the choices I selected for spending time? I'd click on Vash, but then be talking to Attie, it happened when trying to talk to another character too. I certainly don't mind talking to Attie, but it left me a little confused when trying to socialize with certain characters 😅I wasn't always sure who I was going to get!
Either way though, it was a lot of fun, and I certainly was able to make a few guesses that turned out right in the end, VERY fun when that gets to happen \o/ I already wanna give this another playthrough, it's a lot in a one month built game!
This game was a lot of fun 😄I always enjoy when characters have been thought out and there's clearly these little nuances to them. They felt whole in their setting, and the story itself just... it was almost like getting onto a ride or something, you're just getting locked in, in a good way obc! Not to mention the art, both the backgrounds and the character sprites, and just... all of it XD I think one of my favorite bits, just the first "babe" from Adam, one word and I did a slight face scrunch. Which, of course, when you get to the ending, or at least the one I got to? Worth iiiiiiit!
There's so much to say about this game... but part of me just wants to ramble about the art. The painterly look and feel of it all, the greys, blacks, and shapes built from the strokes, I can't imagine how long these all took, it feels so worth it, and congrats to the artist for getting them all done. That's not to say nothing about the story of course, I was curious and very much wanted to know more. Namitha especially, I don't want to say any spoilers just in case, but between the art and writing for Namitha? just fit so well together, propping the character up.
Oh this was gooooood. I don't want to be too specific in case people read the comments before playing but! The art was so good, I enjoyed the variety, and the different scenes, also just the little details? Even the simplified textures in the backgrounds helped keep things from looking too busy while also still looking part of a scene. I'd only gotten one ending, but I'm curious to try and find more later.
I'm not even sure what to comment on first... The visuals? Music? Atmosphere? Story? even just after a few moments of playing, the dialogue does a good job of pulling you in, the music fits so well, and changes as you go, mixing with the advancing plot. Just really really well done, absolutely.
Thanks so much! We knew it wouldn't be easy as a first attempt, but I'm so proud of what we all got to get done. I'm really glad you liked it, thanks again! <3
