Now here is an entry with a real GB-soul in it. You captured it beautifully . Loved the battle-sprites. It is clear you put love into this game.
Great lore too. You should expand this further. It has real potential. Glad i could play it. I will say, at one point i tried to run from a fight. But i failed thrice in a row, i think. Not sure if it is bad luck, a hidden stat that makes it impossible or unlikely to run, or maybe a small bug.
But the alchemy hook was pretty dang cool.

Cheers, that’s 100% what we were going for! I pushed hard for making it playable on a real Game Boy, so it could be as authentic as possible 💪
I would love to expand it further! At this point time is significantly more precious than ideas, so I just need as much of it as possible, and more games will follow ⏰
As for the run calculations, they’re a 50% flat rate, then an additional 5% chance to run per turn that has elapsed. I think raising it to a higher percentage makes a lot of sense (once we can update again) as by turn 3 you should be guaranteed to escape!
