Very cool action rpg. The enemies move quick and demand a quick response. The character portraits are very nice and Lira has great eyebrows. I like the color usage and spritework too.
RPG Maker games are always really great and I love seeing what creative things people are able to do with an accessible game development tool. I think this game fits into the theme well! I didn't get very far as the machines are very difficult to avoid - as you said it is a little frustratingly difficult! But I do like how you've set the scene for a horror game and I hope that you continue using this platform.
The intro was very polished and showed a lot of proficiency with what RPG Maker can do. As for feedback, there were times where the camera didn't centre on the speaker in dialog which made the flow of conversation a little disjointed. I feel a little more time establishing who the characters were could have been helpful, as some of the banter was confusing, but I like how you gave the characters their own personalities. Hopefully I can finish this game eventually to see what they're all about!
Thanks for submitting Squammo to the SCREAM MACHINE jam!

thanks! i had to choose between developing the story or the gameplay, and i barely got the gameplay working lol :) i really enjoy these game jams and i plot towards the next one
I was really enjoying this to start with, it had a very polished intro. But I immediately got stuck once the game actually started, I couldn't figure out how to free your friend.
nice :)
i intended this game to be frustratingly difficult
but perhaps i should put better instructions?
Nice, I like the lighting and textures, they look really polished! I also have a soft spot for RPG maker games.
thanks! I added a link to the cyberpop and horror city textures
