Oh that is a VERY useful thing! And speaking of articles and explanations, I saw your Tutorial Video on Youtube: I'd suggest cutting down the big one into smaller videos too, each one covering a specific area. (Boosts algorithm and helps people find what they want more easily). And maybe also add Chapters on the Big Video.

Hello and good morning from Europe ^^ It's a nice little engine you got here. It has potential.

I figured I would open a thread where I would post my feedback and ideas for additional features (also my personal opinion on the priority from LOW to MEDIUM to HIGH).

  1. MOUSE SCROLL WHEEL IN MENUS [LOW] - I keep trying to scroll with the mouse wheel whenever the project pops up and it doesn't work and I keep being so sad. xD
  2. FURTHER STATS [HIGH]  - The engine provides out the box only three possible stats for a character, STRENGTH/DEXTERITY/RESISTANCE. It's very old school, as in very old school. Even the original Ultima had more stats to work with. It's very important to allow to add more stats.
  3. JPEGs and PNGs ACCROSS THE BOARD [HIGH] - BMPs are lossless, yes, but they also balloon the size of a project something fierce. I'm not saying WebM but at the very least JPEGs and PNGs should be allowed for all graphical elements.
  4. EFFEKSEER FILES [LOW] - I don't know if this is feasible and it's really not a big priority, since it's clear that this engine is aiming for the old school MSDOS look, but I'd also suggest looking into Effekseer animations.
  5. 16:9 RESOLUTION, RESOLUTION CONTROL [HIGH] - All screens nowadays are in the 16:9 format which is why whenever you seen an old school Dungeon Crawler RPG they account for it in some way. Also, as 1920*1080 is now the Default 800*600 resolution is going to look kinda smallish, and that's without thinking of stuff like 4k monitors.
  6. MAP PAGES COPY/PASTE/DRAW [MEDIUM] - A way to copy paste Pages on a map screen or draw them say, in a line, if you want to quickly make a bunch of tiles that all have similar properties would be very useful and make the map making process less tedious.

That's off the top of my head. Hope it's useful!

Still in development!

Hello! Thanks for the wait, it is now fixed!

Thank you very much for the Bug Report! We will resolve it as soon as possible. The team lead is currently on vacation until the 25th so, depending on the RAM requirements, it could be a few days before a new version is uploaded.

Yeah, some of the image assets haven't been finalized yet. Apologies!

I see! By any chance, were you using the PC98 option?

Thanks for the bug notification! Will investigate.

Thank you very much! Same, I hope it goes smooth!

Thank you very much! It was a very different but also very fun experience making this.

Seems like Itch borked the file on upload. Now it should be fixed.

Hello, Shibagaku. Which file are you referring to?

Pretty much. Also so the Team's Patreon remains SFW.

I'm sorry but your comments seem to imply that I'm putting this at the exorbitant price in the hopes that someone may somehow buy it by mistake instead of using it as a shield (and continuously telling people in the comments not to buy it).

Also, it implies a threat, which you have no business doing. If you think I'm doing something shady, you should've just reported the page.

No worries, I have screenshotted your comments as well and I will report them myself.

The price is just so people don't actually BUY the Patreon exclusive version. The Demo is the public release :)

NOOOO! YOU VERY CLEARLY MUST DOWNLOAD THE FREE DEMO XD

OHNOES

NOOOO XD Just subscribe to the Patreon if you don't want to wait! Hahahah!

Who would be nuts enough xD

LOL It's a failsafe so that people don't actually buy this and it can only be accessed by Patrons xD

There's going to be a free version coming (one month after the Patreon update).

I REPEAT: DO NOT BUY THE GAME!

>Came here with suggestions, see there's a speaker event coming in the summer.

YAY! :D Anyway, a couple suggestions (if they're implementable).

1) Is it possible to add {#nothing} tags as possible keywords? That way we can tie the playing of the sound bite to something that won't show up in the text.

2) Is it possible to have possible keywords include special characters? (Like ?).

Works as advertised, easy to use, 10/10! :D

@MeinosKaen: Thank you very much! We all came together to the Hawks wanting to try something new! I wanted to try perfecting the RPG exploration mechanic, and Xiruo had the idea of a two-people battle system!

@MeinosKaen: Thank you very much! The team did an amazing job ^^

*YOINK* Experimenting right away! :D

@MeinosKaen: Thank you so much! :'D I've been working on this system for years o.o

Thanks for your patience! A new upload has been completed and the issue should now be solved!

We've checked and the original file works. There seems to have been an issue when uploading it to Itch! A new upload will be up asap!

Thank you! I will check the issue ASAP.

I see. Seems like there's an issue with the downloaded ZIP file. I will check if it's replicable.

A question: have you extracted the files? Or are you trying to launch the EXE directly from the ZIP without extracting?

Very sorry to hear that! Have you tried redownloading the package already? What message does it give when you extract it?

AMAZING!

Thank you very much ^^ We hope to continue delivering!

Closed! Full team achieved! Thank you so much!

Thank you for your in interest! Unfortunately we already have a CG artist, but thank you all the same!

Thank you very much and sorry for the delayed reply! We already have a character artist and unfortunately your BG style wouldn't fit the time we're going to ^^' Sorry.

Thank you very much! Every little bug report helps to polish the experience for everyone ^^

Thank you very much for the report! Could you share what the crash report said in the text?

It's not necessary for REFRAIN :)
