The Staircase Beckons

I am grateful to have 18 subscribers and would love to have even more. That being said, this is only half of Road To Paradise. The first episode of the other half, The Staircase is nearing completion. By my math there are 12 of you that I appreciate subscribing to this game page that might want to subscribe to that one as well.

Anyway, of course our heroes from the first episode of The Dragon appear in the first episode of The Staircase. This time, though, they're a boss fight!


"The Horror, The Chibi Horror!" I only drew attention to the differing sprite styles of the RTP "aliens" and UPRC "earthlings" for a cheap laugh and to point out that yes, I know these are two different styles, and they clash, but it's very much on purpose. kumada pointed out to me though that actually seeing someone with Chibi proportions would be terrifying to a real human being.


So...not the diplomatic option then? (The game lets you choose whether to attempt cross-world diplomacy, and also handles victory, defeat, and escape as three different outcomes to the battle, all with slightly different consequences.)


Well of course he does. It's turn one. Of the Milano Cat battlers for the main party of The Dragon, the only one I'm really unhappy with is Kara, but I couldn't find a battler in that style that seemed to match a sword princess, in spite of the incredible wealth of humanoids available in that style. I did a fair amount of editing and recoloring on Lydia's battle sprite.


Lydia really doesn't like it when her death magic doesn't work.


I dunno, guys, maybe she's got the right idea...
