Really REALLY cool game, i love the nes graphics and you really included a lot of stuff, only complaint is the player speed and the lack of save points, but i understand thats for making it more faithful to the nes. very good job.

I was giving thought to adding more save points after the jam is over (or the first chance I can update), so you make a good point. Each area outside the main area and maybe the final one could use one more save point. I'll have to do a little re-shuffling of the map setup (Map data is also used for cutscenes), but it should be doable. Something that did not show up in time is save stations will also give a full HP and MP restoration. I wanted to update, but the NES Jam locked me out. XD.
I had to lower the difficulty of the early-on enemies when I realized "Shoot, this is going to be a complaint".
Glad to see we were thinking on the same wavelength. Hope you enjoyed playing it! If you do decide to carry through to the end, just to let you know, the game has two different endings, depending on what you get... and what you do... o.O
