Very solid JRPG reminiscent of a time when games were actually 'good'.
I really like the world build; it had the feel of a semi-open map whereby you had your main clear next objective but had the freedom to explore all the nooks and crannies to get extra goodies.
The dungeon design was simplistic but decent; having the player finding small keys zelda style to progress in the dungeon was a neat touch which I enjoyed.
The soundtrack and chiptune sound effects were all very charming and were seamlessly woven into the retro world.
Took me 12.5 hours to complete. Sweet game and congrats for holding my attention right until the end :)
