A Short Decent Puzzle Game

This game is actually a series of short puzzle levels.

It is not an rpg parody of Final Fantasy, as the name might suggest. The short description in the game search even says "An RPG parody with a puzzling twist!" If this was corrected, and the words PUZZLE GAME were made more prominent on the game page itself, this game might get more attention from puzzle enthusiasts or players looking for a short casual game.

In this game, you take control of 4 characters with different abilities. One can use a forcefield to block fireballs, one can jump small gaps, one can shoot fireballs, and one can shoot a music note to swap places with a teammate. You can freely swap between which character to control, and then move them around the level. The object of each level is to move all 4 characters into designated tiles. It will usually be required to use some combination of the abilities in order to solve the puzzles in each level, as well as some good old fashioned rock pushing and button stepping.

The difficulty is pretty fair, and there are plenty of hints as well, so the game should be enjoyable for casual puzzle players as well. There was a nice variety of levels that required some thinking as well as a little action timing. There is also a level reset and level exit options for your convenience.

Overall, this was a pretty fun and decent puzzle game. I think there's about 18 levels, but the first 5 are more like tutorials, so it takes maybe around 1 hour to finish. It would've been nice if it were longer, but it was made for an IGMC event, so it's a pretty good effort for a short development time frame. If you're looking for some moderately challenging puzzles or a short casual game to pass the time, this game is a pretty good choice.
