Karma Flow - The Prototype
Just played Karma Flow on stream for the first time, and I gotta say, it's really impressive! To see OldPat stretch the 2k3 engine like this to create dynamic stealth missions, with lots of non-linearity and side missions that you have to complete... it's total vibe! OldPat's sense for the dramatic, for creating vibes through music, graphics and story beats put in the right places, makes this a real treat to play.
The gameplay was confusing to me at first, but I think after a while I started to understand. It took me a while to understand how missions, sub-quests, getting notice via "Alerts" and all these things contribute to your overall "Karma Score", and how that contributes to whether you get "clues in game" and stuff. It's a very complex system, and I like that it exists! It's unique and I think I can count on my hand the number of RPG Maker games that use systems that are this complex, that are of the developer's own design (I assume! If it's directly pulled from other games, then I simply haven't played enough non-linear stealth games, then, have I? *sweat face*)
But the gameplay was very challenging, especially the final stage. The cover system was very punishing also! It's well worth the ride, particularly for OldPat's storytelling abilities and the game's general vibe and atmosphere - it's constructed really well. I think that with OldPat's successive games - PSYCHE Locke and The Lady Puppet, OldPat's ability to ease players into the game's experience have only improved with time. I feel like with Karma Flow, there was a massive text tutorial at the start that I caught maybe 40% of, but then had to learn the other 60% just by experimenting. I've found that I learn best as a player if the game teaches me one mechanic at a time, generally speaking. But once I got the mechanics down, it was a lot of fun. I might even return to 100% it!
Looking forward to whatever Karma Flow 2 brings. <3

Mouth Sweet
I was recommended "Mouth Sweet" by the community - they nominated it as RPG Maker Cola's 27th best RPG Maker Game of all time. I've just played "Mouth Sweet" and I gotta say, it was really fantastic, innovative and interesting all the way through, despite my personal misunderstandings of a couple mechanics that initially left me frustrated, but after I'd realised what my misunderstandings were, my appreciation of the game suddenly grew, until I can finally say that I love this game!
I loved the way that the graphical style, music and especially audio (!) contributed to the overall surreal feel and style of the piece. I feel like it greatly supported the narrative of someone being stuck in a dead-end job, being forced to do immoral deeds under an oppressive structure, and not being able to escape. The "Mouth Sweet" title still evades me, but somehow it seems fitting to the themes of the game? I'm not too sure about that, but hey, I can just say that - it feels right?
The central mechanic was also extremely well-done, I feel, and very innovative. If there was anything that was frustrating, it was because I failed to understand initially that you could initiate a battle with the unseen foes BEFORE they brushed up against you. It was only when I approached enemies that required TWO shots (another thing I didn't understand initially) that I realised I was stuck. It took me searching a YouTube walkthrough to find out what you actually had to do - which was to initiate early. Once I'd figured this out, it all became clear, and suddenly, I was the master of shooting.
I liked the sense of panic you get when running out of bullets. In some places, I thought it might be possible to softlock yourself out of a win, but in the end, I got through, by just winging it and hoping that I didn't get encounters. So that was okay in the end.
Overall, I feel like it was really interesting and personal expression of the way that the developer was feeling at the time. I love when a game feels like a personal love letter to their audience. It's really quite nice. I am also happy to know that L.O.V.E. games is still creating games until this day, 5 years after "Mouth Sweet". I don't have any claim over the authorship of the developer's life (of course!) but at least I can say it somehow makes me happy that they may have been able to get what they wanted by expressing themselves through this game. Again - judgements here abound!
All in all, I thoroughly recommend this game, and I think it deserves its status as one of the RPG Maker Classics. <3

The Disrupted Monarchs
This is such a unique game with an ever-oppressive atmosphere! I will preface this by saying that I didn't anywhere near finish this game (just played the first 2 hours) and I was in a highly sleep-deprived when I streamed this, but it was still so unique and like a fever dream! This is developed by zDS' brother, and for some reason there's... similarities in their games? Both are highly moody, melancholic games, except I think PsiSteve's game here seems to have a higher dose of the surreal and Lynchian. It's like... there's so much here that doesn't make traditional "sense" and the game operates on the flow of its own logic. Supermarkets, and a largely non-linear space that doesn't really have too much direction baked into it? It's funny that even after a couple hours of playing, I didn't know where I was going or how I was progressing. Again, it could have been the sleep deprived state I was in, but hey. I still very much appreciate this game for what it is, even if I'm not sure it's exactly the game I like to play. It doesn't push you in the direction you need to go, so a person with the specific brand of ADHD that I have finds it very difficult to understand where to go at a particular time. Plus, I wanted something perhaps a little more emotional in the story department to latch onto, which is just a personal preference for coherence, perhaps. But then again, it could bring it all together in later sections of the game. Yet, when I think back on it, I can't help but be in awe of what's presented, and definitely think about returning to it, that hazy, surrealistic world of confusion and chaos presented. Love it. Thanks for making this.
The Morning Star
I never actually commented here but... Ah my goodness. This game's storytelling and setting was so intimate and dangerous and... classy. The art in this is wonderful. The storytelling is pristine. The pacing? Gorgeous. You wake up near a bus stop off the side of the road and you're wondering what happened. It just gets more and more involved as it goes, in a masterclass of storytelling and characterisation. Loved this. Enjoyed this so much, Ronove, and can't wait for whatever else is in store, no matter what. Sheesh, this game is so good!
The Lady Puppet
I didn't actually post my full thoughts here because i get lazy when writing reviews but now that it's come Misao time i must say OldPat you're making it hard for me to choose "Most Promising Demo" here. Okay, it's Lonely League, Nihilo or The Lady Puppet so far. Frick. This game is so tense, and bloody, and beautiful, and... gorgeous? It definitely has that cabaret vibe going for it that's unmatchable. The demo I played perhaps a couple bugs with the chasing mechanics, but in future demos that'll be improved, as OldPat shaves off all the bugs and polishes this to a beautiful sheen. Can't wait to play the final product. Wishing the very best for the commercial release happening later on! Yeah, this game... gorgeous. Bless.
Nihilo RM2k3
Okay, so... this is in demo phase, and it's definitely giving The Lonely League a run for its money when it comes to "Most Promising Demo" in my books. Absolutely polished from front to back, immaculate post-apoc vibes, brilliant dialogue, pacing is on-point and OH MY GOODNESS THE MONSTERS WTFFFFFF. They are so gorgeous and this world is so gorgeous and a lot of the menus and stuff are going to make more sense the more this game is developed but AS IS, it's just... crystalline. Let's go, Giznads. The gameplay, the graphics, the tone, the pacing, the everything. Let's just keep going and get that full released game. Everyone should play this <3
Our Dark Heart (demo)
Forgot to post here, but the lighting and smoothness of everything here... oh my goodness. It's so fricking good. The tension? Stellar. The mood? Heckin' good. Finding that note in the attic? Made me want to pull my hair out. But still, very good. So smooth, and the shooting mechanism? Winning. Play this game? Heckin' definitely. I really really want to see where this game goes in future, from the creator of Fey, they're back with a vengeance and they deserve your eyes. Let's see where this one goes <3
ChickenQuest 2K3: Rise of the Chimkin
When it comes to comedy in RPG Maker, I think of Mirak, Ratty, Frogge, Punkitt, etc. (sorry if i've missed someone!). These people can make me bust a gut laughing while playing their games, they're so fantastic. Now I can add codapill to that list. What a fricking brilliant and hilarious little game this is. Keep being hilarious, coda. You're lovely to me. If this was expanded into a game that used something other than the usual RPG structure, i would love it even more. Love ya Coda, thanks for this amazing game <3
Placebo Love
WHAT THE ACTUAL HECKING HECK srry i'm late but this game is amazing and everyone should go play it, even me because i keep meaning to go back to play it (i've played maybe about 4 hours or so) but it is... so unique and there's so many scenarios. It's a visual novel and scheduling simulator about doppelgangers but it's actually incredibly well-made. Well-written, very very unique! I love the spiritual component to the whole thing, and the relationships are tracked really well. It's like Persona, if there was no walking around or jumping into the TV, and the game was a lot quicker! And written differently in a more mature and grounded setting but still with a lot of the fantastical elements <3 I loved this game and wish to play more but my procrastination lol i'm sorry
The Lonely League
Calunio has for a long time been one of my favourite RPG Maker developers of all, for their daring story concepts and impressive direction of scenes, alongside some decent pacing and unmatchable commentary on the human condition. "THERAPIST: Mind Manager" might be favourite RPG Maker game of all time, but I gotta say - this might be giving it a run for its money. It's funny that despite all of the praise I heap upon Calunio for his story and concept work and - oh how that dialogue sings! - I can never shake the fact that I've never considered Calunio to be strong at, well, gameplay. Until... now? I mean, based on the 2-3 hours of this game I've played, it's by far the most fun I've had playing a Calunio game when it comes to pure mechanics, and it's... somehow still backed up by Calunio's masterful storytelling abilities? And somehow his scene direction is more effective than ever? And this might be his LONGEST game yet? The very fact that one of the most promising RPG Maker games I can think of right now is being developed based on copyrighted characters and setting is somehow one of the most RPG Maker things I can think of. I really, really, fricking hope this game gets more players when the next demo comes out. I'd be really disappointed if it didn't, because this game absolutely. Fucks.
