*UPDATE* I added a ton of shi, uh, stuff. I was going to put this on Greenlight for free, but Steam changed how submissions work. Oh well. Have fun!

*Note, I accidentally deleted my download instead of updating it, so I now have zero downloads.....

It's Finally Here! Almost three... uh, six years in the making!!!

This is a completed 35+ hours, fully functioning and tested RPG. This game started out as a "Farce" about me being a ♥♥♥♥ to my D&D campaign players via inside jokes and toilet humor. Since the game was universally enjoyed, I continued to expand it's contents. Eventually, about 3000'ish people have now played through and beaten this game, and I have received mostly positive feedback. There is even a Lets-Play on Youtube of two of the beta versions of this game. This game features:
- 25 Unique Classes ( 14 basic, 10 'evolved', and 1 Secret ).
- Childish humor at the expense of my family and friends.
- An in-game town that you can build and upgrade (and attempt to unbalance the game with).
- Blatant humorous satirical copywrite infringement.
- NewGame+ option with alternate Final boss fights for multiple playthroughs.
- Plentiful Hidden sidequest/areas/treasures... Everywhere...
- 'Campy' first chapter that most people don't play beyond...
- 15 Playable and diverse characters to find.
- Inside jokes that you will never understand.
- Fishing Minigame ( Breath of Fire style ) , Fish grant combat buffs.
- Every single default RPG Maker VX Ace map.
- Strategic Collectible Card mini-game... (that's hard to understand).
- An Arena, featuring wager/gain combat and optional gauntlet.
- Childish insults directed at my Ex-Wife.
- Triple Triad... Yep. Why not. Also, other random mini-games.
- Deep character customization via numerous equipment types, accessories, adornments, relics, and orb slots.
- Combat animations... Terrible, basic combat animations...
- Elemental Fields and Combat favor add 'diversity' to stale combat.
- Did I mention blatant humorous satirical copywrite infringement?

If you encounter an error/issue, let me know and I will fix and patch. If you believe the first chapter is stupid, I agree ( I left it untouched due to its roots as the "Farce"). If you get stuck, the Lets-Play by JacksawJack on YouTube can give you a walkthrough: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZvWpKwWZ5I&list=PLEgSZMy-H9QtD0jLNvysfl78Sjoo0IV3P )

To patch, simple extract the file over your old installation. You should NOT have to backup your saved games.

Any feedback?

I have to say that overall the game is fun, the humor is done well, and there's lots of secrets, mini-games, ecc... I happen to like the characters too. Mike's a favorite, always arguing with the story and npcs. =)

There's a couple of negative things I'd like to point out:

1) Balance seems to be off in many aspects. The First Chimera boss is overpowered, in general all monsters are too fast, but this chimera manages to breath your entire party 3 times before you take action with non-rogue characters, considering the elemental system he will get Ice damage up to 200-300% faster than you can tone it down by using fire spells (and your fire spells will be weaker and weaker). It took me a lot of farming to beat that, and for being one of the first mandatory bosses of the game, I don't think that's really appropriate. Then there's unbalance between characters too. Richie (the gunner) is probably the strongest dpser of the game, since he can dual wield cannons that have very high ATK, the vampire appears to be useless eve after the class change and the class change for the 3 main characters does not seem something you can advantage of during normal gameplay, but only something that you should hold off for the very end, other characters can change class and get power ups right away with less trouble, this puts the first 3 at a serious disadvantage (imho) at start.
Then there's the accessory (Berserker Eyepatch I think) that gives 50 TP every turn and it's so godlike that I can't see equipping anything else (it's pretty cheap too).

2) Towards the end of the game, the amount of monsters becomes unbearable. There's something like hundreds of fight per dungeon. Castlevania took me 2 hours. 1 hour and a half was spent fighting groups of 2 Vampires. That's just not fun. Then I went to a maze-like dungeon that was even worse and after roaming in that place for another couple of hours I gave up on the game because I felt disheartened by something that who knows how long it would have taken to complete.

I didn't finish the game because of reason n°2, I think I'm stuck in that maze after doing Castlevania and there are so many monsters I completely lost the will to continue.

Overall I still think it's a good game, but if I were you, I would take a look at these two things, balance and amount of encounters, as they seem to be off.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I am in the process of making a balance-tweak patch. The main thing I was planning on addressing is the amount of grind-combats that occur, along with the speed scaling of certain enemies. The Eyepatch of fury used to give 25% TP Gen boost, and will be reduced to 15%. It's tooltip will also be updated to reflect the -5% evasion that is supposed to offset it's power slightly.

The encounters in Castlevania are avoidable (why must everyone always kill Dracula...? :) ), so it's meant to be a pain. And I apologize for the hedge-maze, but you were caught inside an inside-joke. Charlie had offhandedly mentioned that he could complete any dungeon, regardless of difficulty. The Hedge maze IS completable (took charlie ~3.5 hours). The good news is there is a warp back to the entrance at the finish... if you can find it. Sorry, I want to keep that experience intact, just to spite my friend. Fortunately, the hedge-maze is completely optional content.

I've actually had other players say that Richie was underpowered/worthless. Amazingly, so far no two people have reported the same things as overpowered. Hopefully that means everybody is having fun min/maxing & "breaking" the game, which is exactly what I was hoping for.

Again, thank you very much for the feed back.

Long RPG that basically just wastes your time. There isnt much plot, most of the time the characters make inside jokes about the developer and how he makes everyone go to wherever for no particular reason. There is no effective way to make your characters stronger especially when magic is very weak in this game and late game monsters all have some inexplicable resistance to physical attacks. This makes most battles drag on for very long where you are in no danger but the enemies take forever to kill. Bosses are either extremely easy or instant death since the game has alot of random side bosses that just mop the floor with u. I got as far as castlevania before the game randomly crashed due to having a bunch of different scripts just mixed in it. At its core its just another RTP game.
