This game has creative puzzle and battle system. Well, the first time I entered a battle can only escape but that is just because I did not take the weapon. I also love the art. Hand drawn art always have its own charm.
That being said, this game seems to be made with bad faith. Yet surprisingly, that makes the story good.
Anyway, Glenda is still the best waifu.
Thank you for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it! As for being made in bad faith, not as much as you think. While it certainly wasn't the most cordial thing I've ever done, it was an idea that sprung from the overall reaction to my entry last year. When I realized, or at least believed, that I was personally responsible for getting AI banned from future Harold Jams, the story pretty much wrote itself. That's kind of how I work.
While I personally don't agree with banning AI from virtually every game jam, and I suspect that the technology will soon become so ingrained that few will care any longer, I truly mean no offense to the Harold Jam organizers nor the community. My mission was to create the best game I could for the jam and this was the result. Had I pulled any more punches, I don't think I would have liked the end result as much.
Don't worry, the story turns out great. Not pulling any punches makes the game more impactful.
I think there is a time and place for everything. While technology will keep advancing, digital art will still be disqualified in traditional art competition and using guns in martial art tournament is not allowed.
Besides, I believe some jam allows (even encourages) AI generated stuff nowadays. Make sure the jam state it's fine to use in the rule though. If AI generated stuff isn't mentioned, it is safer to think the jam host forgot to add that rule or maybe ask for clarification.
