Today, I bought and finished Small Saga (on Steam, sorry; had I known the game was here, I would've bought it here). Upon that completion, I decided to buy the accompanying DLC to chuck a tip at the dev for having crafted such a beautiful, epic, and incredible adventure. It's about eight hours long and it's packed to the brim with incredible characterisation and exciting plot beats that other games struggle to even come close to. The turn-based combat isn't anything special but it's well executed but that's not what you're here for; you're here for the fantastic story.
I'm still amazed that the setting is just the gutters of a regular, non-magical Earth populated by talking rodents who've taken to medieval societies and yet the story accomplishes being a fantastic epic in its own right. The mundane becomes otherworldly, divine and demonic alike, and the presentation is immaculate. I heartily recommend this game to everyone. It's a real treat amongst indie titles.
Thanks Darya. As everyone has said, this is a wonderful and charming game. In the beginning, it was just a rpg. In the end, it was a beautiful, impactful journey. I hope creating the game was as much as a compelling experience as it was for me playing it.
I'm not much of a gamer, but I watch a bunch of LPs, but partway through watching I had to get it. Played through it in a couple of days, just finished it now, and just... wow.
You have a knack for telling story and character though game mechanics which I've not seen before. I enjoyed the story but the characters were amazing.
The battle mechanics are great too! They feel really tight and tuned in.
This was an incredible time, just about every part of this game charmed my pants off. Great work and thank you so much for this wonderful story! A blessed way to start 2024 <3

Blown away by the game!

I recently bought Small Saga on Steam, but it feels like such a perfect Nintendo Switch game to me... it may be worthwhile to port. Love your work ^^
