Wonderful game with huge potential.
Suggestions:
I definitely plan on changing up teammate counts and join conditions by Alpha 5. Your battle UI suggestions are good ideas as well; I'm considering them. Thank you so much for the feedback!
By the way, I also would be willing to support you financially. Have you considered a patreon/Ko-Fi etc. ?
It's very generous of you to offer! I wasn't going to ask for financial support until I launch the game's Kickstarter campaign later this year, but since you're offering, I've updated my Ko-fi page for the purpose. If you wish to donate, I'll put the money to good use on the game. https://ko-fi.com/mckathlin
Done
Thank you, Choco!
A wonderful game. It's really enjoyable and I'll definitely buy it if you decide to sell. Cheers!
Thank you so much for your support! If you notice any bugs or have any suggestions, please send a message my way. :)
Lovely game! Even tho it still alpha you can see the love put into it. The quality of life put in a 8-bit game is really great!
Holding space to make the battles faster is game changing :P
I'm loving the songs and all the sprites so far. And I already hate the Rock thing, so tanky and it threw 3 stones in my face :(
I might update my "review" later as I play the game more (I just finished one tale!)
Thanks for playing! I'd be interested to hear more of your thoughts on battle pacing.
Hey this is so rad! Gameplay reminds me of Lufia 2 on SNES, so much nostalgia. The music and sfx are also so amazing, I love it ^.^
Hey Jessy, thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed. :)
F4 for full screen.
I've added this to the info on controls now; thanks for the reminder!
