I greatly appreciate the critiquing. Most of my games have aspects of multiple genres, and it looks like the game jam was looking for more of a strict adventure game , without any hybrids. It was a great learning experience, and I thank for the opportunity to participate.
As mentioned in the final scene, T' Jacques had been in a deep fever, specifically the yellow fever, and had been unconscious multiple days, that is why all enemy encounters were of a fantasy nature.
You are correct, in regards to the music; it a modification of the standard music that came with the game engine.
I almost put what you mentioned about putting more game time of flashbacks, but unfortunately decided not too.
I may have to redefine my definitions of what are strict adventure games and what are strict RPGs. This may also describe why I was having such a challenge playing a majority of the submissions. I had not played games like that since the late 80s/early 90s.
Most of all thanks for giving me the opportunity to explain some of the conditions that some of my ancestors may have faced when they first settled southern Louisiana.
