Premise
Reniat returns to her home village after years away at boarding school to find that the village is nearly deserted. The mine that the village depended on heavily for boosting its economy and tourism has been overrun by monsters and no one has bothered doing anything about it. Having trained as an adventurer, she decides to see what she can do about reviving the town and making a name for herself in the world.
Homework Salesman is a life simulation game with an emphasis on dungeon exploration, completing quests, crafting new equipment and items, and befriending the people in town. The game takes inspiration from the Rune Factory and Atelier series.

Update Log:
1/27/14 - v1.2
- The last two bosses in the game will now put up an anti-frazzle shield if they get hit successfully by frazzle three times. This shield will dissipate after 2 turns. Note that it doesn't count just frazzling the boss, it will count if you frazzle any boss minions in the fight.
- The Treasure Hunter couple will now appear in the ending cut-scene if you saw their world event.
- Fixed bugs related to Liffely's cooking delivery service.
- Fixed bugs related to the 2nd Colorous Cave quest.

- Added several easter eggs, most of which are references to early testers and other people in the community.
- You now get a quest telling you what to do next if you defeat a certain field boss after defeating the last boss of the Caves for the first time.

Homework Salesman is a life simulation game with an emphasis on dungeon exploration, completing quests, crafting new equipment and items, and befriending the people in town. The game takes inspiration from the Rune Factory and Atelier series.
Features
- Befriend each villager by talking to them every day and giving them gifts. Higher friendship levels allow you to learn each NPC's personal story and can also gain you access to new shop items, skills, hidden goodies, and more.
- Unique items means that each item in the game is treated as a separate object. You can rename equipment, find rare versions of them, upgrade and repair them (weapons have durability), and even enchant them. You can have several iron swords each with different enchantments on them.
- Six unique crafts: Cooking, Smithing, Tailoring, Enchanting, Alchemy, and Construction.
- Quests are divided into two categories: story quests that propel your adventure forward, and side quests that are procedurally generated.
- Features a world encounter system where you can find random events in field maps or dungeons, such as traveling merchants or a bandit who'll offer to spare you for money (or you can kill him)
- Enemy encounters and (most) treasure chests are randomly placed on maps. You typically won't find the same monster encounter in the same dungeon spot every time. Treasure chest contents are randomly drawn from a pool of items appropriate for the zone you're in. You can also find unique weapons with randomized names, stats, and enchantments.

Yep and you should have a quest that gives details on it.
author=samy1337
i killed him but hes still there and it says that there is maybe still something to do in the cave, so i guess i need to find the dynamite?
Have you defeated the skull demon boss that roams in the forest yet?

Are you at the mountain? You're not supposed to be there yet. I goofed and accidentally allowed access. It'll be available in chapter 2!

I recently started playing, and am still trying to get a hang of all the crafting etc. I'm trying to make an upgrade stone at the anvil, but I'm not given the option to do so. I have the materials, I have the recipe...but at the anvil I can only upgrade (and I don't have stones), or repair. Any suggestions? Thanks!
The elunium is an ingredient for making upgrade stones which are made with the workbench (in the tailor's back room).

you need the level for crafting the stone, the requiered level stands behind the item you wanna craft

author=BlackLilithauthor=idebrawrIt took me a long time because I couldn't figure out what to do to kill it fast. After it starts that all party attack if you don't have enough life, you're dead. I was level 19 when I beat it. Most of the characters had enchantments ( at least 2 dodge and something to boost my magical defence, although the Ghost only attacks with physical ones so I recommend other enchantments). I used poison, and fire cause it really damages him badly. When he attacked all my party Reniat keept healing them and Ankaba was with the poison. The boys just hit him and DEAD! XD I beat him a second time and received some money and an upgrade stone. :D What should I do now? Keep beating him ( cause I have no other boss left) and keep giving gifts to others to be best friends? :D I also need to buy a larger inventory.
how long did it take you to beat the ghost though?
that's awesome!

Diedrupo, I think I found another odd one. I decided to try and find out which of the characters you can get up to 4 stars (only found one so far) in this first chapter, and I was working on Connie. I'd just made it to 3 stars and I wanted to see if that would trigger an event, and it did (cute by the way) but as part of it, I actually had a full inventory when it happened and she said that they were giving away overflow chests and one would be outside my room...complete with items I didn't have access to before. But when I went back to the second floor of my house, nope no chest (other than the one I bought myself and that's inside the room). Was something supposed to happen, or have I just spent to much time levelling up the friendship points, and you hadn't finished that event yet?
Hey BlackLilith, Well Done! That ghost is HARD. As far as Xebec, there is a bottle of spirits recipe, and since it has hops, yeast and barley in it, I consider it beer.
I managed to beat the ghost in the urn. I'm so happy! XD I saw that you can choose to fight it again. Will it give me any rewards if I do? :D I wish I could make Xebec some beer for him to drink. Maybe in the next chapter we could have a beer recipe. ;)
Will there be any romance in the next chapters? I can't wait to meet the prince that Reniat likes. :D
