Grist of Flies has made it into IGMC's Top 10!
Thanks!
I figure it'll add replayability. There will be a New Game+ mode now that will carry over the events you've already seen, so the next batch will be different. All of it is still in infancy however, but is being worked on little by little every day.

So... IGMC 2015
Yeah Grist of Flies is also on this site. This is the only site that has a topic about the game besides its IGMC contest page, since this was by far the best way to host it.
I'll be keeping my fingers crossed, but either way I can see that a great game's gonna win regardless. (I still have to play a couple though)
It's also cool to see the Adventure genre love this contest got.

Glad you like it so far!
This game wouldn't make sense without the melting pot it is since the setting is kind of a fictional version of the Northeast US, although about 50 years prior.

Vexed Enigma's POP Horror tiles pack. I made Bri and two others in that pic by working off the sprite and face bases the pack provides as well.
They are awesome graphics, I agree. Vexed does really good pixel work.

Just updated the download to fix any noted bugs while giving small boosts in stats per level up to get 10+ extra in Power/Guard/Mind/Sanity/Medic by SLVL 20.
The EP display bug in the menu is completely fixed now as well, so hopefully I won't have to go into anymore tinkering until the contest is over, where I may expand on the game.

Let's Play: Grist of Flies
Just finished watching you play through my game; thanks for taking the time to make a play-through of it! Helped me catch a couple things that'll go toward whether or not I add stat gains to the level system.
Also gonna change the TP on Anthony's description to EP.

Thanks for the kind words and criticism.
Originally this game was a first person dungeon crawler, which is why the main menu and map hud looks the way it does. But while FPLE (First Person Script for Ace) can be fixed to not crash on its own, introducing other scripts will make it crash one too many times for me to use for this contest, so I made the maps of the current game a day before finishing the last of the events.
I don't know Black Math, whose music I used for the game, personally, but I did speak to them to make sure it was cool to use their stuff. They even gave me a digital copy of their album which contained stuff that's not on the freemusicarchive.org/ site.
This game will most likely be expanded on once the contest has come to a close, so I'll be making the story much bigger while expanding on the dungeon aspect.

Are you just using all characters in their default A rank slots?
The trick is to use status buff/debuffs unlike most RPGs, and take advantage of status effects when possible. Otherwise you can have each squad specify in one thing. For example, if you keep Seth in the trooper slot, and put Jasmine in the Scientist slot you double your attack power for one squad, effectively killing any non boss enemy in one hit with the strongest attack.
Just take a look at what some characters can do in different slots, I only gave one example, but there's different ways to take advantage of the system.

You mean the graphics? I pieced the windowskin together using my own edits + Mumu's hud graphics which can be found at OpenGameArt.
