Interesting. I included it in my Game Breaker’s Toolkit Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Was definitely interesting to watch. Impressed that you were able to MOVE and FITE, but vindicated by the fact that yet another has fallen to the MERCILESS ONSLAUGHT THAT IS EARTHGROUND.

Quickly devolved to hammering random keys. The font and debug window are the icing on the cake.

Pressed every button on the keyboard, none of them were to move. After a lot of research and development, I figured out the buttons to move and fight. The encounter rate was god awful. What a great Earthbound inspired game.

10/10 (represents Mother 1 quite well)

Oh, I wouldn't be so sure of that...

Unless you're using a keyboard with everything to the entire Greek alphabet + the universal galactic alphabet, there is not a single key on the keyboard that actually moves the player.

Nevermind, after rigorous lab testing I have figured out what in-fact you can move. And it has a high encounter rate. 10/10
