The game was planned to have 10 calendar months. So around 25%.

Thank you very much for the kind words! 

I feel like I'm going to work on this again later on, maybe after a few years. I'm kinda protective of my vision of the game, so putting it in the hands of another person is not something I would consider. I have specific stories written down and ideas for quests and levels which requires a lot of patience to write, execute, and test. I think putting that amount of expectation on a person without paying them is too much to ask anyway, so I'd rather just do it on my own.

Sorry about that. Life just started life-ing and I have different priorities now. :(

Not anytime soon, unfortunately. I'll probably get back to this at some point in my life, but in the next 2 years I plan on focusing on acting.

Thank you!

Hello. I apologize. Life took a different turn for me last 2024 and now I'm an actor. This project will be paused indefinitely. I really appreciate everyone's support though. T^T

Hi!

I'm currently on hiatus from game development. I apologize for the lack of updates. Thank you for your interest.

Heya! So there are crystals in the game which you can equip to let you use certain spells. For example, there is an Enheal Crystal which, if you equip it, will let you cast Enheal. I think it's a good compromise to your suggestion. :D

Very nice!

Thanks for your honesty. That's fair. Not everyone will like this kind of blend of game mechanics and that's fine. Thank you for playing and sharing your thoughts!

Later on there will be ways to learn new spells. However, the MC cannot learn all the elemental spells. It's to keep the choices meaningful.

Initial HP and MP is also affected so you left those stats out. ^-^"

Yes, the other questions determines your starting stats and the elemental spell available in Spellcasting Basics.

Nice suggestion. I could edit it and do something like that next time.

Thank you so much!!

Hi! Agility affects the turn placement. Dodge and critical hits are different stats.

Luck affects probability of landing status effects. However, in future content, I want luck to be more beneficial to players such as affecting the outcome of some quests and mini-quests. 

I'll make sure to explain more about stats in future library book content.

Hi Asce! Yes, resistances stack as far as I know.  If it seems like it doesn't, let me know and I'll look into your equipment and try to replicate it so I can fix the bug. :D

Thank you everyone for the kind comments. I really appreciate you all!

My man!

In case anyone is wondering, this guy right here is the Snofawks miniboss fight in the Headmaster's Office. xD

Thank you very much. That means a lot. I was under a lot of pressure to finish this game and it stressed me out, so knowing that people want me to take my time helps a lot!

For aesthetic, I drew inspiration from Mana Khemia 1 and 2. Do check those games out!

Yes I would appreciate it!

Hi! I'm sorry to hear that. What OS are you using? Are your drivers updated?

Do you mean a video walkthrough?

Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts! A lot of great suggestions here and I will surely come back to comments like these as I improve the game.

Yes, as you've noticed, some of the suggestions have been implemented on a basic level. I have thought of and considered some of your suggestions because they were brought up by other players, so it's only a matter of expanding the content so to speak. I'm quite busy this year due to work so I don't know when the game will be finished, but I do intend to finish this someday for sure!

Hi g00ru!

I think you can choose which character to target with Magios. Can you try again in game and make sure that the mouse cursor isn't point at a specific character? Let me know if it works!

We'll see! I might do some events where people can get a free activation key. This is to give chance for some people to play the game for free.

Thank you very much! Yes, I plan to sell it on full release. I can't give a definite release date yet, but rest assured I am still working o nthe game and plan on finishing it.

Hmmm that's a good idea.

Wow. Three playthroughs! That's a huge compliment. Thank you very much! I'll do my best to finish the game with an experience that equals or goes beyond the demo experience.

Oh I see. I suggest updating your PC's drivers. Most of the time that solves the problem.

Yes correct!

There is a ranking system lore wise, but gameplay wise it is your journey into becoming a Lawmage.

I'll think about a way to add the MC's family into the story. As for preferred weapons, almost all characters are limited to 2 out of 3 weapon types.

They don't really get stronger based on how much your grind. Some of them do get stronger based on which month you are in.

Hello! Thanks for the reminder. I'll see if I can make a progress update next month. ^-^

Hi! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Stat Focus refers to their priority stat growth. For example, Lunelle's magic growth is higher compared to other characters. It's to give players an idea of a character's strengths. Thanks for asking this question. I'll find a way to relay this information to players.

Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much! I'm happy to know that you enjoyed the demo. One really good way to support the game is to WISHLIST on Steam.

I'm not concerned with money right now since I have 2 jobs and to be honest, developing the game has taken a backseat this year. I do intend to finish this eventually though. Wishlists will help a lot because it's important for visibility in Steam. Once the game is finished, the algorithm will help the game be more noticeable. ^-^

Hi Daichi! I'm glad you enjoyed. Unfortunately I will have to push back the release date because of... life stuff. But I am still set on finishing this eventually!

Glad you like it! :D

It's still a bit far from finished. But yes, some skills and spells will AOE versions.
