  • Despite the crash bug this is actually a great and well put together RPG. Good combat mechanics and art to go along with it. Well done!

Tell us about your game!
Short RPG, standard JRPG controls. Features ATB system for more "active" combat. Game is Home base + 5 missions.

Alchemy themed everything. Story is you're playing the "Inner Shadows" that have been alchemically separated from the "real heroes", bottled up in some sort of shadowy extradimensional pocket prison.

As you progress you re-synthesize your memories and physical forms, to eventually face your captors outside in the real world.

Extra Notes
I used a lot of old timey words, especially alchemy terms and also terms for weapons/armor. I learned a lot of them, hopefully you do too!

You sure went ham on the recipes, a lot of content there!

I liked the setting and the plot is interesting as well. I like the Talk or fight feature with NPCs, let’s you take things at your pace. And the story bonus were also a nice idea!

I like your progress, it’s seems you’re getting more comfortable with the engine since your last entry. Good job!
