BULMABRIEFS144'S PROFILE

Dude, you need to give serious thought to the balance of this game. It's like this.

All of your codes are like 3 pages long. And most of these are variables that you do not need.

No items dropped means you just have the whip. Don't need X Y. In fact, you very much shouldn't have it, because it slows down attacks and screws with the actual range. This is because action events typically gain 1 1/2 (when a creature starts to move in you have a minor window where they don't hit) squares, whereas by xy has a strict location that you can attack from.

I'll explain, you need just a local Parallel process that defines monster HP, and then your monster is a simple one page local that looks like this:
(Collision event, Same Level As Hero)
<>If Action Started
<> (Animation based on facing)
<> (Remove HP per hit)
<> If HP variable is 0
<> (Awards Here then erase event)
End
<> Else
<> (Handle damage)
End

And that's it. No four pages of crap.

No items dropped also means you can't replenish hp without plodding through monster after monster hoping for a merchant (you'll get killed first). I made it to the second part only by avoiding basically half the monsters. The candles dropped all kinds of stuff, but since you have copypasted code, basically all your candles are all the same (dude, this is an action event, the other was a collision event; just add your animation properly maybe using facing, then vary these candles ALOT more). From what I saw, they all give about 5 gold or so. Some could drop items. Also, I don't see why candles fall on two hits. These things I remember being one-hit wonders.

If I gave you an actual review, I'd give you a rating of 1 (I considered, but decided to just keep reviews out of this now). Seems harsh? It's because the game's overcomplication makes it difficult to fix, and the challenge issues are game-breaking.
Start the enemy events and objects over. (1) Make objects one hp, a simple one-page animation + Action event with few variables and mix up items/rewards. (2) Enemies are collision with an If Action Taken/Else mix, and make rewards here more varied too. (3) Randomize more things (drops, damage, etc).

No pressure or anything, but finish this game nao... Also, I'm gonna play the demo just cuz catchy opening theme.

We are glad to heard that.
If you have any feedback, feel free to tell us. :)

I do.

Is there anyway you can allow the ctrl, enter, and space keys for the control settings? I mean, I've enabled Controls for Attack = Alt, Shift = Run, Z = block, X = jump, C = dodge/roll, tab = basic attack, ~ = the splashy animation thing, and then I moved the other hotkeys to numbers. I would have liked select to be enter and cancel to be space though. And something to be hooked to ctrl. I don't tend to like games using the letters, cuz I tend to break typing keys that way, so having more non-typing keys open would let me configure however I want.

I also think the theme song should be moved somewhere before the mysterious cloaked people are talking, either before our hero talks (making it the first thing to happen) or after. Or you could have the mysterious figures talk, then song, then tutorial. I think shuffle the events until it sorta works, but having the song third just seemed weird. Thematically, mysterious figures/tutorial -> song -> tutorial/mysterious figures works best (sandwiched), but second is probably song -> tutorial -> mysterious figures, as we have a cutscene that gives a good break between tutorial and main action. The one thing I do know is launching into tutorial mode, then having cloaked figures, then song feels awkward because you're pushing the accept/attack button alot and then suddenly there's a song, and it feels like that song should have been a break after the tutorial or even first thing.

Pffft, anime characters working at CNN and/or Infowars (depending on which one you consider fake)! I'm playing this.

Darn, it's not on here.

Can you make an itch.io version of this? Arafell did one, and I like that more than re-downloading Steam for just one game.

I need to watch the anime. I just saw it from "red haired anime" search and it was cute. But now that the game is done, I'm gonna check it out. Kinda reverse order, but thanks for telling me what anime this girl is from.

(Moving error stuff elsewhere)

Other than that, liking the game. Especially the creepy voiceovers.

Update: But not liking Masane. His whole sidequest risks Raphael's life, and he basically contributes nothing to combat. Well, except liking that he kicks Aziel's bum that one time. But then...
