always open a chest at the last possible moment, this way you’ll have consumed everything you could from the current chest and delay an enemy spawn.
don’t use area magic on a single enemy, instead stack potions in order of use, then use the magic on two or more enemies, two times in a row.
always try to clear enemies as soon as possible, if you don’t have weapons or items for a plan like the one above
dont let enemies turns stack in sequence (like having one enemy on turn 1, another on turn 2 and so on) this is a death sentence, cause every move means getting hit. So maybe its worth it to get hit before another enemy spawns, if that means they’ll be synchronized aftewards.
keep your grid organized, this helps with decision making
just got to top 337 with 856 points, but that took me over 50 tries losing at around 60 aswell.
From 0 to around 50 points, enemies are your main problem, so I focus on weapons and magic.
From 50 to 100 focus much more on magic and mana, by this point you’ll get your first gold bar, then I always select double magic.
From 100 points on the game shifts to space management, enemies are no longer a problem, so weapons become trash, and thats where I’m at now, still trying to figure better strategies for slot management, just lost a match because the grid was full.
I can’t believe someone already submitted for the jam! You just made history as the first person to publish a game on this engine (aside from me and darcie, the creators).
I know its probably just a silly upload for you, but for me, its hope. Hope that people will actually use and love this little tool that I put so much love into creating, hope that this will bring more people into game development to share their stories.
And I hope you had a great time making your tiny rpg!
Thank you so much.
This is an insanely awesome heads up. Thank you so much for the info e for the suggestion. We are definitely adding screen readers support to our development backlog.
Visually impaired gamers are an amazing community and we would love to make our engine more inclusive to them, thank you so much for bringing this up.
Hello! Thank you so much for commenting. You can play with the engine here
There’s currently just a small playable tutorial I made, you can find it at the bottom of the engine’s page, or at the bottom of the official game jam page.
It does not generate screen reader compatible games for now, but we plan to further improve the engine, anyone can contribute too, since its open source!
Me and Darcie are very proud to announce, not only the release of the engine we’ve been creating with so much passion, but also, we’d like to announce the
1st Tiny RPG Jam !
Join NOW and show us what you can create with this beautiful tool!
Thank you so much for commenting and enjoying the game!
I really love this project, unfortunately it didn’t quite take off and that’s why I rarely expand on it, but I still pay $5 bucks every month since 2020 just to keep the server up, because I love it so much.
Have plans to make a banking system, pvp, etc, but I almost never code for it anymore.
It had a working Google login, but it stoped working since last year and I can’t seem to fix it.
I made a small video covering what I’ve learned, since this was my first fully functional multiplayer game, but nothing too in depth (it’s in portuguese tho): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2PlMucki18
