Yo’ Templar here, while the idea of managing the party is fun, sadly there’s really nothing much to do but watch everything unfold, I know it was a take in the GMTK theme, but there’s more that can be done when it comes to managing while still leaving the movement and fighting automatic, for example, gathering materials from enemies and crafting items with it, stats and skill builds, extra characters you can switch in and out of the party (while leaving the main character -hero- in it at all times to make it a sort of pillar you must always work to improve).
