MERRICKROX'S PROFILE

Still trying to figure out how I got this horrid image from that bloodied window to occur. Dear lord. Thought for sure he'd burst through there and give me a unique instant death. Truly a nerve wracking experience for me.

Loving those Gameboy Color styled aesthetics. Also gotta say I love that little eating animation. Is (s)he lunging forward with a toothy mouth to envelope it whole? This looks too fun. Subscribing to this.

After coming from the house with the old man and butterflies . I'm stuck in a loop. can't go any futher.

I actually fixed this in the newest patch I'll have uploaded by either tonight or tomorrow!

Edit: These bugs should all be fixed now!~

Hi, I run into the same bug as "michaelthegm".
I stepped onto the red button in the strange house, fought the three bats, the bats escaped, but a loop begins with the same event as stepping on the red button.
After three fights you are stuck on the stairs at the bottom of the map.

Ooh I see, so it's an actual bug, bleh. Can't believe I overlooked that when testing. That should be a quick fix, sorry about that.

Also Wyatt should have learned a spell named something with flare... at level 4 or 5. It never appears on the skill list.

Thank you, I'll be sure to make it so it actually appears, I think I know what I did wrong.

And when choosing "shutdown" on the title screen, nothing happens.

I'm going to get remove this from the title screen eventually. Thanks for reporting these! I'll get these all fixed as soon as possible.

Well, this game has an excellent description. It sounds like this game has an enthralling story and characters the player could easily relate to. However, the game itself wasn't especially great. I like the soundtrack button, but it generally seemed to go downhill from there.
The mapping needs work. The areas are huge and empty.
The music needs work. I expected a lot more of it to sound like the title track, quiet and dramatic, but I noticed a lot of tracks that didn't fit and generally weren't high quality.
I played until I stepped on a red button and fought a troop of three bats four times.
I think you could tell an incredible story with this game, but the gameplay just isn't there.

Thanks for taking the time to write your thoughts on this, I really appreciate it.

Yeah, most of the maps were initially done under the assumption that people totally love massive empty overworlds. Next update you'll see several areas be cut down tremendously in size because of how lame spacious areas with nothing in them can be. I need some advice on a map with the level of scale as, say, Dense Forest. Assuming I kept the size of that similarly the same, but included more items and equipment off the beaten path, would that more offset the hassle of traveling large maps?

Music-wise, since the game is still early and nothing dark occurs at this point, I haven't included the more quiet, solemn pieces yet that I have finished. The soundtrack from the beginning was meant to cover a variety of different genres, but I can see what you mean with them not being high quality. I'm not sure what I did wrong when converting them from wav files into mp3s. I might need help with that, they keep getting cut off at the end by a second and it bothers me greatly.

I'm hoping so, I'm always constantly changing dialogue and cutting some entirely if it doesn't fit with what I'm going for. I'm hoping I can polish up the game further in areas that need improvement and work. Thank you so much for the criticisms, though, I really appreciate it.
