Which Theme did you choose to implement in your game?
Butler Quest
Did you implement any of the Bonus Challenges? And if so, which ones?
1] The actual game starts with the choice between Waffles or Bacon Omelette which decides the timeline the Butler is in [or whether the cast will be good or evil.]
2] In the Evil Route, you defeat Reid and his all-male party in combat with their fates remaining uncertain though the defeat is pretty fast through Sphere's attacks.
3] The Evil Route has an Easter Egg NPC at the end of the hall before your fight with Reid that says this line about the lost relic, 'Mac & Cheese'.

Really liked this one - it has an intriguing plot and a some great funny dialogue and interactions between the characters.
I think I got quite far - would loved to have got to the end but I'm not sure if I ran into a game breaking bug? The part specifically where Onyxia has her ceremony with the sleeping dude, the game just freezes although I can get into the menu, the scene doesn't play and I cannot move. Probably an autorun or parallel trigger is happening that should either be there or not but it feels like an easy enough fix.
Still, I really like what you made and think there is plenty enough content to give a rating here. Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong or if it is just the scene because I would like to try get to the end. Cheers.
Oh dang! I am sorry the Omelette's Route had a bug! I should playtest the deployed versions I have (Windows and Browser) to see what needs fixing. I think the only play-tested route was the more popular Waffles Route so this could be why I haven't gotten to fixing it right away.
I usually want to ask 'What's your favorite character?' when people say they like the character interactions so I know what I can focus on in the future. A shame about the bug.
No worries I played a good portion of the game I think? Also like you say I can go the other option and see what that brings up.
Fave character? It would have to be Sphere - jacked to the max and an absolute BEAST. Just the butler, yet swats away 4 of the RPG heroes like they were flies on the master's dining table. I liked them all to be fair I thought it was really well written and engaging.
