Castle Greyrot, a new rogue-lite RPG on the horizon! Featuring Duran!



Hello, Time Travelers!
I've been absent for the past year, working on a new project called Castle Greyrot. Imagine Shattered Hourglass bosses, dialogues, decision-making, and job system but it's set in dark medieval times.

The story is Castle Greyrot is a living being that changes its location every 10 years and corrupts its surroundings wherever it goes. As an experienced Commander, you are summoned to engage in a raid on Castle Greyrot.
With mercenaries on your side, you're about to venture to the Castle and destroy the unknown evil force within. It's that simple.

You can check out Castle Greyrot's page right away!

I can't use Fat Worm Bait. It simply isn't accessible in the options when you try to fish. :/
author=dnel57
I was expecting to see fishing available at ....Fisherman's Horizon.Also Scan is useless. Shows only ??? for everything.




Here is a little map problem I thought I'd let you know about.
Not a big problem. You can walk off of it so, you don't get stuck up there.



Fisherman's Horizon was in my plan, but that place is an event area I don't want to mess with it ahaha

After using Scan you can view all those stats by pressing Shift when targeting an enemy. It's not useless :O

Also, fixed that issue those starfishes >:D

That's my fault ahaha, I tested them out with my debug system... It seems I forgot to add an auto dialogue event for it. This means... I gotta push my update very soon... So many bugs.
Sorry about the Scan comment. Didn't realize you had to hold shift while toggling.
Downloaded 8.0.1

Get this every time I get a random encounter. It is immediate before I even see the enemy.
When I click OK, it crashes and I have to start over. Happened in different areas. Have not been able to have a battle since I downloaded this version.

You need to download the other version since your save file not using Animated Battlers D:

Will do. Thanks.
Creatop for the love of god nerf the insta-kill skills please xd
I think I'm missing something. I downloaded Shattered Hourglass 0.8.1_DoTn6ns
Transferred my saves from 8.0.1 into it.
Still getting the same crash screen. Is there another step I missed?

Should I then transfer from 0.8.1_DoTn6ns
back to 8.0.1?

Hello dnel57, I'm so sorry to say that I've messed up my uploads and uploaded the same version twice. So the second version also has animated battlers. I'm currently uploading the right version. Sorry for the trouble :(
No problem. Thanks
Completed first stage of Fish Donations. Without thinking, I Donated the Angler's Pole I had just gotten. Does this ruin my future fishing? I'm at Lv 4.

Absolutely not! Deluxe Rod has better chance to not consume bait :D




Just thought I'd report another area where the party drags.



Any plans to fix the Yellow Drop problem? 267 kills/ no Yellow Drop.

Also 118 kills/ no Flaming Berries.

If they can't be fixed, will you update the Item count?

Thanks

Yellow Drop is 1/600 and Flaming Berries 1/200. You are in the mercy of random drops ^.^

Can you tell me which fishes you are missing by telling me the closest fishes you caught? (In Fish Collection)
I know one is the Angel Fish. Two of the three are on bottom row. One looks like a skeleton of a fish. The third I think is in the right half of the next row up. When I get home,I'll send you a screenshot. About 3 hours or so from now.

You are correct for the Angel Fish. The other is the Skull Fish, and a Yellowtail
hi,I just try out this game yesterday, manage to completed the volcano area, I not really sure if it is OK to left the karma event untouched yet (frozen women, worker that kill by spider), as I read 35 page comment i will get bad end route if i didn't have enough karma in end of chapter 2. But guess there will be no problem as long as i keep a different safe file for every decision event.

I was amazed the effort you put on creating this game,
there are afew thing I like about this game
1. Some boss fight are challenging, worth the shot(Oni really get me there when I fight him unprepared), even for the easier one, player still better off finding a way to finish the fight ASAP, there are boss who HP are long despite of being weak hitter.
2. Dungeon design, different path end up reaching same destination (yeah and i cycle it like 2 times to confirm i am not missing out anything)
3. Hero balance, job/class balance make the fighting of this game worth (u know some game can just spam normal attack without using any skill)

and wow it had been 6 years since the game first release.

I hope I can finish all 7 diffrent ending within a week. Will post here again if I find any problem

Leaving events untouched may lead you your early bad ending. So I suggest at worst case having a neutral karma better than doing nothing.
That's absolutely true as long as you have backup saves.

Thank you so much! Since I'm on holiday season I can create even more content.
1) Boss fights are getting even crazier after the volcano part ;)
2) My favourite is Desert Dungeon. You'll see when you get into it. There are so many paths!
3) You can break that balance if you try out different classes haha. I know some of my classes are unbalanced as I can see on some Let's Play videos... Hopefully, I can fix those issues.

Time flies, If you are aiming for other endings, I suggest having your other save files at least have 5 Good/Bad/Neutral :>
