Lots of really cool ideas here, and the art style is really awesome. I'd encourage you to focus on fewer ideas next time to try and get your game into a more playable state. Thanks for making and sharing your game!

Developer

thanks! Definitely too ambitious! Had lots of fun with the art. Hope to still complete it this year.

Your art direction, style, transitions, and animations were absolutely fantastic. Great job on the sound effects and music too! I wasn't really able to do anything though and I'm not sure if that's just an issue on my end. I could interact with NPCs but couldn't select any options. On fighting a skeleton, I was bumped back to the splash screen after attacking. I think you've got a lot of super great work here, and I would love to see this fleshed out!

Developer

thanks! Definitely a work in progress! Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

I like the spritework, but I'm a little confused on what I'm supposed to be doing. Some options do nothing and the battles I got into were automatic losses.

Developer

Thanks! Yea I wasn't able to get an endgame setup in time, lots of options aren't fleshed out and there aren't strong enemies implemented yet

Developer

Its meant to be an open world rpg.

Had a blast! Thanks for checking out my prototype!
