Excellent Horror Ambience! The pathfinding was a great feature because it was difficult to know where to go when I couldn't see very well, so my character manoeuvring around obstacles by itself to get to the point was extremely helpful! Great Horror Entry!  Would you be intrested in rating or playing my game? It would really help me out, but dont worry if you dont want to, its completely up to you :)

Cool RPGMaker game

Pros: charming, cool story, decent puzzle design

Cons: beginning is a bit confusing, it's unclear what you can interact with, I'm not sure how to get a good ending if there is one

Overall neat RPGMaker game that gives me some nostalgia

Not bad! I really have no critiques on this game other than the vignette around the player in the overworld, Im not a huge fan of it :/ But everything else like the audio and story seems to be pretty solid!

RPG Maker is not dead. I think due to its simple way to build (that one kind of) games it holds great potential.

The level progression seems a little backwards to me, the beginning is free roam and a bit confusing then after falling into the pit (that sfx is gold btw) it's more guided and overall fun.

Didn't know what to do after getting the focusing gemstone.

Interacting with the fire pillar in the main room prompts the area completion.

Apologies, I fear I misunderstood where you had difficulty, and realized an oversight as well. 

If you got stuck in the Crystal cavern, the exit is identified by a funnel of fallen crystals.  This requires the ladder from the NPC in the Ruins/Castle area. If you did not speak to the NPC, then you would not have received the ladder, causing you to be trapped, unable to complete the game. 

Apologies, again, for the misunderstanding and the oversight if that happened to you.

The audio is incredible, it felt very immersive. I also really like the horror theme but I had a hard time with the controls. Great game :)

It's always nostalgic for me to see an RPG Maker game. I only played a limited time, but got a bad ending. I'm intrigued!

Could you please rate my game https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-8/rate/1680919 ?

Really Nice Horror Atmosphere! the pathfinding was a good addition since i couldnt see that much it was hard to know where to go so my character moving around objects on its own to get to the point was very useful! Great Horror Entry!
