A monster is bearing down on the town of Gervasburg and it's up to the local witch to defeat it - but she's too lazy to seek it out! She instead enlists her curmudgeonly attendant, Norbert, to scour the town in search of three items needed to bring the monster to them.
- Explore the town of Gervasburg and complete its three dungeons in any order
- Challenging battles in which the protagonist and his familiar share an MP pool
- Enemy encounters are fixed and one-time-only - no randomness, no enemies chasing you
- Approximate length: 2 hours
IDM! PNE is a greatly enhanced and improved version of a game released for an offsite community event in 2020. It boasts a complete gameplay overhaul, additional scenes and dialogue changes, and new features and quality of life improvements.

Expansion + Update Announcement!

Before I begin, I'd like to thank everyone who nominated and voted for IDM! in the Best Game Title award in the 2022 Misaos! It means a lot.
I’m happy to introduce my first commercial project, a paid expansion to IDM! tentatively titled I’ll Defeat the Monster From the Comfort of My Bed! Power Nap Edition EX.
In IDM! EX, Lieselotte receives a letter claiming she has won an award for her service to Gervasburg and needs only speak a series of magicked words to claim her prize, a legendary robe that acts as a sleep aid! However, before an incredulous Norbert can utter a word of protest, he, Lieselotte, and Froschkönig are whisked away to a strange place. Unsure of what’s going on or who’s behind it, the three have little choice but to explore their new surroundings to get to the bottom of it.
(Click for full resolution.)
The IDM! EX scenario adds five new dungeons that are longer and more challenging than those in the original IDM! scenario, each made in a different style and playable in any order. Within them are approximately 50 new enemies with many new abilities and mechanics. Lieselotte will also join Norbert and Froschkönig for the whole quest this time around in addition to a new, optional playable character.
In Dreaming Mountain, a roulette of various effects appears after each battle. Try to land on a beneficial one!
As you progress you’ll unlock new abilities for each character as well as new equipment options. In particular, I’ve expanded upon the mechanic of Norbert and Froschkönig sharing an MP bar with new ways to spend, save, and regain MP. As with IDM!, the new equipment in EX will expand your character build options instead of simply having better stats than existing gear.
All of the artwork from IDM! has been replaced with new art made by Muffy and Cakey. They’ve done a great job of both remaking the old art and creating new things. All of the old battle animations have been replaced as well. In addition to making many new icons for EX, I've also tweaked or remade most of the (admittedly rough-looking) existing ones.
A before-and-after of some of the remade status icons.
While IDM! will be included with EX, the IDM! scenario will remain free and be repositioned as a demo. I’ll also be updating the current version of IDM! at the time of EX’s release for compatibility and with some changes and additions, such as adding more character animation to the cutscenes, a new skill for Norbert that allows him to change equipment mid-battle without losing momentum, and giving some of the enemies more interesting abilities to bring them closer to the new enemies in EX. All of the aforementioned balancing changes to existing elements, graphical changes, etc., will also be included in this new version.
I've also updated the UI to be less cluttered and easier to read. (Click for full resolution.)
I’ll Defeat the Monster From the Comfort of My Bed! Power Nap Edition EX is currently around 70% complete. Price and release date TBA.

CloseI like the game! It's cute and light-hearted, the gameplay is also pretty good. I just wished there were more scenes with Lieselotte because her dialogues were funny.
Also, I liked the names as I don't often see them in RPG Maker games. Are they Scandinavian?

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Maybe you saw these, but there a few conversations you can trigger with Lieselotte as you play, one for each of the key items, as well as a generic dialogue. Sometimes she'll be asleep when you enter her room, though. That aside, I plan to do more with these characters, so stay tuned.
The names are German, though there is some degree of overlap with Scandinavian names due to their shared roots.

I must've done that when I first began taking screenshots for the guide and forgot to change it back...
I've uploaded a new version that fixes the issue. Thanks for letting me know.
