This is super cute, and quite impressive with the random level generation - I honestly didn't even know RPGMaker could do that!
Love that your cats were the voice talent. I made a game like that before 🐈
It can't out of the box but I found a great script that this would not have been possible to do without!
Thanks for your comment! I fully intend to put the little beasts into as many games I make as I can, so hopefully I'll have cleaner audio next go-around lol
Things we loved:
Consider improving these:
Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately it's hard to test for every possible thing given that this game has randomly generated dungeons but I think I've handled the incidents of lag in the updated version... obviously couldn't do that for the Jam, though lol. I've wanted to make a game starring witch familiars for a while, so glad to get it out there and that people enjoyed the theme!
A nice building game
Thank you! ♥
I have not seen an RPG maker game in a game jam myself before, and despite what I usually expect with RPG maker games, this one manages to stand out with its overall style! Cant wait for this game to be a cult classic in the RPG maker fandom in a couple years, theres alot of room for new stuff if you are willing to work on it long term
I don't know about years but I do have plenty of ideas for improvement and stuff I couldn't fit into it during the jam. And some bug squashing of course! Thank you for the lovely comment! I really wanted it to not feel like a bog standard RPG maker game, so I'm happy to hear I succeeded!
the style really hits a certain nostalgia spot for me, nice!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it ♥
