Funny you should mention that; there was a point that I was thinking about changing the menu cursor to a piece of chalk and the window skin to more of a chalkboard frame, so I'm actually kind of pleased that that's being conveyed.

Edit: Menu bug was an easy solution at least! Onto the next...
I think the chalkboard idea would be a lot of fun! I think it would look something like this:



(I threw this together in about 5 minutes in paint. I didn't hack the game or anything, don't worry)


Like the black more, better contrast and stuff.

Figured out why no one was reacting to Goon!Jimmy shaking like I expected.

Hmm... I guess Jimmy's shaking is a different context, due to being Jimmy and not threatening like the Goon was... And possibly 'cause they don't see the transformation and interpret Goon!Jimmy as normal Jimmy, due to dream logic or something. It's not like anyone else reacted to the different Forms...

There shouldn't be any more big revelations making me want to note-dump 'til I'm done... Unless I find a bug...

Currently at the Giant Garden. Loving it so far. It's like Earthbound, but with actual charm and meat beneath the ambiance. Buck's personal ability seems pretty weak, though -- does it only trigger for regular attacks

Hmm... Might it activate when Raging? So, then the plan might be to Rage and use Jimmy to heal with First Aid or something.

(Jimmy, Not Johnny or Kimmy)

15MP for 300% attack... Well, at higher levels, it'll seem less crazy due to having more MP...

Edit: Oh, also, the item menu is a bit clunky. I'm not sure if the submenus/categorization is really necessary, it just makes it hard to see where everything is. Could you move "All" to the top instead of the bottom, maybe?

Agree. ... I'm thinking that we'll be getting tons of stuff, such that such sorting will be necessary...

I really only had one small irk, and it was that not enough stuff produced dialogue when you went up to examine it. For a game with such rich dialogue, I was surprised that nothing really in Jimmy's home was examinable, even the eery, pounding door.


Same. Although, I guess I shouldn't expect people to be reading my notes to make sure they're not repeating complaints and bug reports and stuff... ... And I wasn't that clear that I was that bugged by it... Although I did note the lack of flavor text...

What's higher and lower than your level is hard to figure out, 'cause Puffs in isolation are stronger than when they're with someone else? Are Puffs the only standalone enemy?

Gonna shake everyone. ... Can you shake the parents, even though they're holahooping??

... Ants on a Log for $5... So cheap!

The only place for the First Aid and Rustic Set is by buying them, right? ... Wow, ppl are taking shaking so much more calmly than I expected, when they had a Goon terrorizing them a scant hour or so ago... If that.

Damn; I knew I should have sent it off to testers first, but I'm a victim of my own hubris--I just had one other person do a brief playthrough. Thanks for the bug reports and screenshots, guys; I thought I'd fixed the transformation ring issue upon leaving a dungeon, but that menu bug, Christ; can't believe I missed that one completely. I'll definitely get more people involved in the testing process for the full version.

@sgt_metool: I actually bought the luna engine and was running into script conflicts, so I decided to stick with the standard UI in order to maintain functionality. It sucks, but I wanted the UI to be pretty simplistic, anyway, so it's one of those compromises I felt like I had to eat it on.

I thought it looked sorta chalkboardy / slatey, to connect with the kid theme...

I totally didn't know this was your work until I saw it on your page!

Using the Transform Ring while leaving an area leaves you stuck.

Gonna get screenie soon... Once it loads...
