Good job, the game looks promising! I don't think I was able to uncover the secrets, I checked the texture of the magazine (two versions) but found nothing. Maybe it's possible to get somewhere by holding on to a rock and quickly pressing Y. It'd be nice if you will add the option for skipping text animations, because if you talk to someone the second time they will repeat the same text as it was before, but you have to wait for the animation and the dialogue end to continue.

Game description
Time to play in secret on your secret handheld console while everybody's asleep...
You’ve just defeated the boss of the area and are ready to set sail for new horizons. However, according to the official game guide, there are still a few secrets left to uncover on this island before moving on... including a secret character to join your party!
Hope you enjoy this short, old-school RPG experience!
Just a tip: the game gets pretty tricky if you don’t get rid of the fatigue accumulated during combat. Don’t forget to use items like Tonic or Elixir!
(Designed to be played with a gamepad)
Note: Details of the changes made after the deadline to fix critical bugs preventing the game from being completed are included in the README file. We changed only the strictly necessary, as you can check comparing git commits!
Theme interpretation
We felt nostalgic for those nights spent uncovering secrets in our favorite RPGs with the help of the official guide. Plus, the story itself revolves around a few secrets here and there.
