Hey! This is my first completed project for rpgmaker2003, it's a short non-linear exploration game. Even though it is non-linear, it does have an ending. The point of the game is about figuring what's going on. It's an exploration, but most of the discoveries will be about what happened to the protagonist. The aesthetic is based on old gameboy RPG's, this includes graphics, music and writting style. It's a short game. It really shouldn't take anyone more than an hour from start to finish.

Most of the graphics and music were made by me, but there are some exeptions. Some tiles (flower tiles, all water tiles, dirt, walls) are from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, and others (seats, bookshelves) are from Pokemon Red. Not_home_anymore is similar in parts to a song from Digimon World 3, and Alone might be entirely plagarized from somewhere, though I cannot recall from where (If anyone knows, please leave a comment). All sound effects are from Link's Awakening, except the stair climbing sound which is from A Link to the Past. They were all taken from HelpTheWretched's website (http://noproblo.dayjo.org/ZeldaSounds/ ).

As far as difficulty goes, there are no fights, there is no way to lose, except to get stuck, of course. I would recommend the old strategy of talking to every NPC in case you do get stuck, though. I made a point of always making the NPC that gave the hint before the flower they hinted at. I Hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it!

There's so many reviews for this game, it's a bit surprising.

I'm not surprised.

I have a feeling this game will be big(ger).
avast! Antivirus. It's my sister's PC. Could be nothing but it could be something in a pop-up.

Is your antivirus NOD32? In my experience it sometimes has panic attacks over nothing.

"i've still no idea what i wrote", that seems definitely a possibility, I hope there's no offense, it's just seeing how you like to get carried away by words!
hey again Rastek, i won't get around to reformatting my review for RMN submission until tomorrow (i hate bbcode almost as much as i hate the wordpress post editor right not lol), so until then here's my Wither review at meridian dance, a bit dicey and i've still no idea what i wrote but i hope you enjoy, cheers http://meridiandance.org/?p=2913
I talked to a friend who owns a cool gaming blog, he played the game and said he'll probably write a piece about it next week. I'll let you know.
Hmmmmm...haven't given this shot, yet, but I suppose I may give it a go on Monday, since I wanted to take a break and play a RM game besides my own. Hopefully 'tis is good! I love the monochrome looking graphics! Oh, and GJ for getting FEATURED GAME OF THE MONTH! ^^
This looks really interesting, downloading
I already read it, he sent me an e-mail. He says my game is "by design or by accident, far more artistic than any game that advertises itself as such." !!!
Hey Rastek, just wanted to let you know real quick in case you didn't already, Chris Lepine of The Artful Gamer has written a piece on Wither on that blog.
I really enjoyed this game. The style and the music fit the story very well and create a unique atmosphere which really sucked me in. Short, but really recommendable!
I just played, I didn't really get all of it, I want to write a review, but I'm not sure if I should "get it" before doing so, or if not getting it is standard reaction and I should write it anyway.
Wow I thought you'd decided not to write me a review! This day just keeps getting better ;)
grats on being featured, reminds me that i have a 5000000000 word review of this game on my hard drive that just needs to be finished, will do it soon lol

Just finished - it was enjoyable. I thought the ending could have lasted a bit longer to explore more themes of death, whacha gonna do.

I like these playable story type things. The easthetic was well put together, as well.

Good jaerb.
It's really more like a playable short story, I think.

I like this "game" and it is morbid.
Yeah this game is kind of cool, and not just because of its gameboy perks.
