Okay, I've played for a little while now and I think I've done everything that's present in the project? There doesn't seem to be anything after taking Alls to the train station, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • There are a fair few passability and tile errors: you can walk onto the higher ground outside Ali's house, and there's a blank tile in the way at the T junction in the map to the south just before the vendors.
  • The maps are *very* busy, to the point where important things are difficult to see. I completely missed the well because it didn't look any different from its surroundings, and there's an identical tile just above it which doesn't do anything so I never thought to try interacting with it.
  • There's at least one quest error: when it says to plant Lily Weed, it says [61] instead.
  • The dialogue with Alls feels really stilted, and Ali's mum just throwing out a big long (German?) phrase with no explanation or context was a bit jarring.
  • A lot of spelling and grammar mistakes, but you've already said you'll be working on those. I highly recommend trying to get a dedicated proofreader for your script if you continue working on this.
  • The menu for selecting seeds is incredibly tedious, especially because it shows a plant whether you have the seed for it or not. I would take advantage of conditional choices to only show a plant if you possess the seed.
  • After taking Alls to the train station, I assume he's no longer with me but he's still in the party. I made a Star Potion like he said, but there doesn't seem to be anyone to bring it to.
  • Minor "logic" nitpick: if Magic Water is freely available from the well outside Ali's house, why on earth would anyone spend 300 Ebony to buy it from the vendor?

It's a solid start to a project overall, if not a little rough around the edges. But you've done a good job of demonstrating what MZ is capable of.

Thank you for your feedback. I will be using your bullet list as a check list to fix these issues. Thank you for pointing out the logic error.  I didn't notice it.

If you take the Star Potion back to the train station Alls' friends should be there. Ali will then give the potion to Raga if everything is working correctly. I'm looking forward to working on this project again.

I did go back to the train station but I couldn't see anyone.

Something to fix when the judging is over. Thank you for letting know.
