I gotta say, I was initially turned off by the caps lock, but this ended up becoming one of the funniest entries, turned kinda epic at the end.

Really like the production quality for the ending too. Reminds me of some old RM joke game that actually became three whole games. What was originally lazy RM devving became pretty epic alternate reality lore haha.

Also, I died when Lucius went "Nooo." XD

Woohoo! Thanks for sticking it through the punctuation free stream of consciousness yelling. I feel pretty amateur at eventing still, so I am very appreciative of you saying there was anything "quality" about the ending.

Haha, is that right? It feels like you reviewed it enough times to make sure it felt natural at least. That or you just nailed it the first couple times. Some of the things I recall and liked about the ending:

It wasn't so long that you needed too much sprite movement, there was just enough.
The dialogue was short and sweet. Good balance of serious and silly.
I like how they call each other "Ultimate A/B/C", that was a moment in itself for me.
- This is where I feel like there's potential for more stories/alternate dimension stuff
The overlay animation of Harold just has so much going on you don't need anything else to distract the eyes haha.

And in general, I feel like if I don't notice anything off about mood/movement/timing, then those were likely well done too. Maybe I was having too much fun laughing too and didn't notice glaring flaws, who knows haha.

Thanks for the insight. I did test it 1,000 times, but at this point all I have is my gut to consult to see if some event works, since I have no actual understanding of anything.

But your feedback helps me see what works, so thank you!
