Found a nice small game to ease stress and relax. Surprisingly, this one worked for me. Thank you for this. One hour's worth of my time is not wasted.
Also they're so cute! <3

You're welcome! Awesome work on the game! ^^d

I just finished the main portion of the game and I want to share my thoughts on this game of yours.

It's a good game and I enjoyed it.

I always wanted to play a traditional JRPG like Final Fantasy series and this game caught my interest. I've played amazing titles before this so while I know what to expect of this game, I was pleasantly surprised how enjoyable Crystal Story turned out. I think it helps to set expectations low and I'm not disappointed... for the most part.

The game feels pretty basic which is fine to me. This game is functional other than a few things that needed polishing, but that's mainly UI I'm referring to. One thing I really like is how you can customize your own party whenever you level up as well as equipable items to further refine your team the way you want.

Then comes the game's presentation which before I continue, I am aware this is based off the original 2011's version (which I haven't played). I'll assume it's a big upgrade from the Flash version and it's pretty okay at best. The 2D sprite animations are cutesy and simple, but one thing I personally would've love to see is more animation from NPCs and enemies (only the player's character when moving around dungeons has a walking animation). I'm not complaining over that which I'll explain later. As for music, voice and sounds, they're alright. Voice acting is pretty sparse save for the intro and later parts of the game, but I don't mind much as I like it this way.

The RPG aspect is as traditional as it gets. Anyone played great RPGs should know what to expect by now. During my playthrough I did find itself to be pretty easy for the most part if you know what you're doing. In fact, it's so easy that I haven't lost the game over the span of 9 hours for the main game itself. Again if you grind and did some sidequests then it's pretty straight forward. The action is also pretty quick thanks to the lack of animations and other things that would otherwise extended it. A good compromise I say.

So to end this review, I felt the game is worth my time and I enjoyed Crystal Story for what it is. While the game felt simple to plow through and the presentation is what you'd expect, this is a good game for anyone wanting to experience an JRPG without so much fat.

For anyone who played the original before this, I think you can get a good guess that this is a good remake. :)

Been playing your game for a while and I gotta say it's awesome so far! A neat demake if you wanna call that.

Might as well address something that I found myself as others haven't pointed out. If I pause during in-game cutscenes, there is a chance it'll softlock (or freeze in this case). It's fatal to the point I had to do a hard reset.


That's pretty much it. But other than that, this is pretty solid. :)

I just finished a small project that took me months to complete. So to put it simply. It's an endless runner with a simple goal to collect carrots while avoiding obstacles.

Have fun everyone. :)

I got around to try this small demo and it's pretty good! Kinda imbalanced in some ways (like harvesting certain enemies earns you gems a lot with harder ones being annoying).

I definitely would like to see this being finished someday. :)

Thank you very much for the feedback Midoseito Akage! I did some revisions to this project and will definitely be the last update to this demo (unless another glitch is found, I'll have to fix that).

I do have plans to expand with the game now that the main components are mostly functional. I plan to revise certain features and a better way to organize code.

I'm pretty happy that I got this one out, but for now I'll leave this as a milestone. I got a bigger, better game to focus on and my next project will be more of a refined version of this... only more better? :P

Anyhoo, thank you for the constructive criticism and helpful advice! :)
