This game looks great, I'm learning English and I want to play a re-playable short RPG game for the first time to practice what I've been learning to. I'll give it a try, thanks for the game.
i played this game when you first released it almost a year ago, but i did not have an itch.io account at the time... since then i have replayed it a few times, and now that i have an account i just want to say thank you for making this charming little game:D it has been very inspiring to me and is genuinely one of my favorite games in general because despite its size, the story/writing & artwork of this game create a super enjoyable experience, which is awesome!!! it also makes me even more excited for amazing treasure valley or any other projects you come out with:D
Hilarious game. Writing had me laughing out loud several times but what surprised me the most was the soundtrack. Who knew jazz could mesh so well with the rpg genre?
I love the fantastic sprite work and, as always, your style of humour!
Just one question, is Beacon Boy's first line (in the OW not the finale) supposed to be OVER/THERE? I decoded it from Morse code but the second word after the slash '...' translates to 'S' but not 'H' (hence OVER/TSERE). Is it intentional and does it mean something else?
beacon boy is something of an embarrassment. it's supposed to say OVER THERE. i came up with them immediately after waking up one day, having noticed everyone who tested the game would end up getting lost during the airship segment and would go to the corners of the map, where there was nothing there. in my sleepy haze, i decided the best way to solve this would be a helpful but ominious creature that points towards the orbs and speaks in morse code. furthermore i accidently mistyped the code, so they're pretty much just not helpful at all.
This really is one of the most unexpected games I've ever played. Like HOLY CRAP the music is so good! The battling stuff is so simple yet enough to describe it's own mechanic. And the plot, it's... You really should experience it yourself.
Question about the bestiary, containing potential spoiler below:
Is there any actual entry for #14 in the bestiary? I couldn't find one despite multiple play throughs and much searching. Also no play throughs online I saw found one. Is it supposed to be a reference to the reclining guy you can never access?
Can you help a dummy to do the same? I downloaded lutris and tried searching for it but didn't have any luck. Also tried opening the .exe and .rpg files, no luck there either.
Of course! In Lutris hit the + button in the upper left corner. Select "add locally installed game" and in the Game info tab under the Runner drop-down menu select Wine. Then under the Game options tab add the Executable. I left the .exe in the downloads folder which might not be the best practice but it works! I didn't change anything else on this page. Same with the Runner options and System options tabs, I left everything there the same. After that try playing it in Lutris, and if it runs you can add it to Steam and should be good to go! The controls need to be remapped but that's pretty straightforward. Let me know if this works :)
i love it, spent 3 hours playing it (i know im slow) i love the music and the unexpected ending. i would like to ask how long it took to make this and how long you have been using this software? Thank you and also you have sick humor in your game!
i've been using the software for a long time, i made "megaman sprite game" with it 10 years ago! the game was made as a little side project that I worked on infrequently, so it took 6 months from start to finish but i wasn't working on it a lot during that time!
cool! I’m going to try to make a game using the software that you used and I just wanted to see how long it took for you to do it. Thank you for answering!
you can't delete maps unless it's the most recent one, but you can delete everything about the map so it's restored to a blank slate. I think it's in "delete map data" or something but I can't check because i'm away from my computer for a few weeks. as for transporting heroes, you can simply use doors! if you need any more help i recommend signing up for the Slime Salad forums or discord or consulting the OHR wiki
How did you get it to run? I'm new to my deck and Linux and lost lol. I downloaded and unzipped it in the download folder, tried running the .exe and .rpg files, neither worked. I read elsewhere in the thread someone used lutris so I downloaded that, nothing found.

Ironically, the Linux port did not run on the Steam Deck, but the Windows version can

I can honestly say I had more fun playing with this tiny game than playing Borderlands or Saints Row. excellent job!
I love the fantastic sprite work and, as always, your style of humour!

a… splendid adventure (seriously, very fun and wholesome <3)
This game was a beautiful experience and makes me want to make games again, thank you for this
This was a roller coaster (a really fun one)
This is a top five game of all time.
Consider it one of those funny medications that helps with your sad feelings
What a great ride. Great music! Highly recommend to anyone and everyone. Even my dad!
Any chance this will get ported to Android?
This really cheered me up, ty.

I found #14, you have to search the globe very carefully.
great game undertale quality
Lol at Douleth, Grarry, and the rest of the town inhabitants 😆
Just got to the castle. This music is DOPE <3
Someone pls tell me how to run this on Steam Deck I simply cannot get it to work :(
Don't worry I figured it out. Gotta run it through Lutris and then add it to Steam that way.
Can you help a dummy to do the same? I downloaded lutris and tried searching for it but didn't have any luck. Also tried opening the .exe and .rpg files, no luck there either.
Of course! In Lutris hit the + button in the upper left corner. Select "add locally installed game" and in the Game info tab under the Runner drop-down menu select Wine.

Im very sorry to ask another question, but how do you delete maps in OHRRPGCE? And also how do you transport heroes to other areas? sorry again.
you can't delete maps unless it's the most recent one, but you can delete everything about the map so it's restored to a blank slate. I think it's in "delete map data" or something but I can't check because i'm away from my computer for a few weeks. as for transporting heroes, you can simply use doors! if you need any more help i recommend signing up for the Slime Salad forums or discord or consulting the OHR wiki
Woah, I didn’t even realize you’re the one who made MegaMan Sprite Game. That’s amazing.
Just downloaded it and tried to play it on my steam deck. Is it normal that it only plays with 20fps? Just need some confirmation 😂
ya that's the FPS it runs at!
thanks for the clarification. Now I can enjoy it on my deck 👍

I'm dumb, what do?
