USAGITO WATASHI
Demo made for a 'A Game By It's Cover 2016', based on the fantastic coverart by Achabox! Quick! Go follow, and praise them!
This details the adventures of Reido (Who has a knack for hitting things and gadgetry) and Dr. Asagi(Who is a rabbit-doctor-thing???) as they wake up to a world under fire from all varieties of cosmic threat!
Experience the joys of space debris with a self destructive attitude, space stations long abandoned with stench of all the remnants of lives gone by, and also facing off with the immensity of the stars in classical famicom fashion.

Here are some words:
Vacations.
Tired.
Immense.
Save.
Game.
Cactus.
Download.
Brine.

Features:

Compulsory Menus!
Elitist Robots!
Strange Visitors!
Handcrafted Witchwave OST!
Eldritch Truth!
Classic RPG Combat!
The Vast Sea of Stars...

It’s a demo, so it’s going to have bugs- but that’s okay. Submit your reports, and I’ll fix, and update as soon as I can. Any bugs you find will be cataloged, and becomes a easter egg! #allbugsareeggs

It wouldn't be Carrionblue if I didn't go cross-eyed at some point:)

Sure I'll give it a try. I liked a bunch of your other stuff. Bug reports incoming:)

I went to CARRIONBLUE's site once when I think Ghost Suburb 2 was new. It's worth a visit once. Well, once because you'll never see anything again after that. Hell, my offspring will be blind for 6 generations hence.

EDIT:
Finished. As always the style and setting are the high points.

I found some problems. *files in a report*

Some of the dialogue gets split weird.

http://i.imgur.com/7dBjIEX.png I don't think I'm supposed to be able to stand here
I'm unsure if SerpantVenom was intentional or if you mean Serpent.

(actually, I think I did this whole bit out of order. They're talking about getting something for the ship but I haven't been to the ship yet.
http://i.imgur.com/rXoL449.png I'm so charming that after our 2nd chat she broke the laws of physics and stuck around for me. I feel so loved.
http://i.imgur.com/xHj7o7u.png In fact, she stuck around even after I loaded my save. The wedding is in April. Please, nobody, tell her about my affair with Luna from Melting Moon. Also, you need a space after that period.
-The airlock room door is an action one way and a touch the other way.
-Unsure if it's a bug or not but the cactus doesn't actually use any of the water I give it. I'm actually all for this since limited saves are for chumps and heavy resource management RPGs.
-Resting in battle gives a message saying that it didn't work. I do get S. back so I'm not sure what's not working.
-Abilities list a TP cost but there is no TP stat. I take it that's S.
-When a fight starts Reido's sprite appears for a split second to the left of the stat boxes.


For the spelling and grammar, I recommend writing all the game's text into a word processor first to make sure it's all okay. If you don't have one (because yeah OpenOffice is pretty crappy sometimes) you can type it all up in Notepad and then copy/paste it into a browser with the Grammarly plugin. I'd never pay for premium but even free will catch most of the problems you have.

Things I'm not really a fan of:
-The jagged movement from tile to tile. If it were one of those strategy games or dungeon crawlers where the enemy only moves when you do then I would understand but it looks kind of annoying here.
-My grenade missed everyone. Giving expendable items a miss chance is downright evil.
-In fact, the miss ratio seems really high. To test this I fired up cheat engine on my 2nd run and even with all my stats at 25, 50 and then 111 I miss about 30% of the time.
-It took me a bit to realize that you need S., even for basic attacks. AP systems can be fine if done well but does the AP decrease as you walk around too or something? I stuck around in a random battle just to get my S. really high for the next boss but when the fight started it was back down. I don't play many RM games which use TP so I'm not so familiar with it.
-If you have the max quantity of an item and you pick up another, it gets wasted. Most modern games do the convenience of letting you decide to discard it or leave it for later.


Looking forward to the finished game.

@Dragnfly
That was super thorough @ @'''
Thanks for taking the time to go through it so thoroughly!
I'll address the bugs when I update the game for sure.

In the future however DragnFly, I will ask that you send reports to me at the email that I've listed in the future. This ensures I don't overlook anything when I go to do touch-ups and repairs.

My level of thoroughness is proportionate to how much I care if a game succeeds bug-free:) As for the non-bug non-grammar stuff do note that I'm technically not in your target audience (although I do tend to like your settings and characters) so I may be blathering on about stuff that goes against what the majority here likes. You'll need more input.

And yeah if I find anything else in future releases I'll try to remember to e-mail them. It'd be good to specify that in your request on the front page though since it's practically impossible to remember everyone's different criteria. If you mean that hashtag thing as a real hashtag, well, I don't have twitter or tumblr or whatever LOL.
@DragnFly
My bad, I didn't add the line in the description in this particular page.
I'll add that in.
It was a implied tag though, for anyone reading in the future.
Looks good cant wait to try it :)

Cool game, I had fun! Now I´m really into Reido´s history, what happened to her? What is that world? why the pc´s process is corrupted? so many unanswered questions that drive me to keep playing the game. I am excited waiting for the final version!

Thank you for your kind words, and enthusiasm~!
I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. ^^
I really enjoyed this so far. It has some really cool ideas with an interesting setting. I've always been a huge fan of the surreal visuals and music you use in your games, it always make for an incredibly memorable atmosphere and experience. Really looking forward to playing the whole thing!

As for my criticisms, my only real complaint would be how the camera moves with every single step. Although I did get a little used to it as I played more, it's kinda disorienting when I first started.

...And maybe I'm just unlucky, but my attacks seemed to miss a LOT.

I'm currently submitting a recording of my experience to the media section. Although in the video, I did get a little confused, I think it's overall pretty well designed. (Mostly my own dang fault.)

Also, I managed to trigger a bug where the big Naiad girl's image gets stuck on screen. All I did was walk back into her room after getting the power core. (I believe this occurred during the last 10 minutes of the video, and she remained there until I finished the demo.)
Thank you so much! It's super nice of you to record your exploration, as it makes troubleshooting a lot more easier. c:
It sounds like some minor things I missed in the switches and a number, so when I update, I'll definitely fix it!
I'm glad you enjoyed it to most of all. c:
Finished the demo.
Believe or not I was like 1 hour trying to find how to save the game, I always suspected the cactus but I was thinking how I could give him water for too long (is not a complain, affter all it's my fault). Besides that I had some troubles fighting enemies before repairing the healing robot.
In short the game had me intrigued with a lot of questions I'm eager to answer once the complete game is released. Really enjoyable game, if the final version follows the path of this demo I think we may have a contender for game of the year.
This really reminds me of Ghost Suburb II, in that there is a main character who is followed by another mysterious one, mixed with the art style of your Ghost Suburb Zero Project. I really dig it, though the stuttering movement hurt my eyes for a bit. I like it so much I drew over your cover art Here.
