CATMITTS'S PROFILE

this is the best aaaa

Yeah, I kind of wanted it that the skills and things would be an optional thing! Like people can just spam attack if they want and get by but if they mess with skills and items and Mystery commands they can do everything much quicker / easier and also have more fun with things (??).

Also Calunio ahahah yeah uh I'll probably have to concede Leg Horse and Dracula and Purple Drank and other stuff to just messing around, I was just trying to make sure people knew this wasn't just complete joke/novelty material.

if there's one thing i've learned from video playthroughs it's that nobody uses the mystery command :(

also i've already thought about a sequel! it would be a completely straightfaced adventure game set in London during the Blitz with lots of uh Thomas Pynchon-esque mysterious conspiracies in distance etc, rumours of mysterious relics and secret errors in the sewers, what is this "city of forms"...... and then it all leads up to one of those giant head things barfing blood everywhere aaaa. I probably won't make this though

There is a glitch you can exploit for added Gramp and Pep-Pep functionality, once you reach Lv. 12 use the Bone Flute to warp to Route 6 and talk to the mayor (NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS *BEFORE* YOU HAVE FOUGHT GREY SHOGGOTH. PLEASE STOP EMAILING ABOUT THIS). Then walk directly south into the sea and take three steps left, a Missingno will appear. Once it is defeated your computer will reboot and you can play the game in "Gramp Mode". This may corrupt all save files and destroy your computer however you will have all the gramps you could require.

Thanks for the review! I definitely agree about the battles, I kind of based them around my own ridiculous lack of attention span for RPG fights and uh it definitely shows. A lot of people on other forums have said that they usually hate RPG battles but enjoyed these ones so maybe different audience etc but yeah they're very easy! They're like a cardboard simulation of battles instead of the real thing.

IDK if I'd call a lot of the stuff in the game random though because that was one of the things I wanted to avoid!! Like I hate that uh Monkey Friggin Cheese XD style tedious wackiness. Most of the NPCs here are just kind of exaggerated/warped versions of just generic RPG villagers and things. The idea was to take the already fairly bizarre speech patterns and conventions of rpg dialog ("i hear there's a werewolf in vanedia cavern!!" "welcome to chitilin! we sell armour and goods" etc) and kind of exaggerate it into something bizarre but still recognisable. This was kind of the general plan for the game, like even Phillip is just a generic voiceless protagonist with just enough weirdly specific details to be strange again. It's actually a weirdly traditional game in a lot of ways! There were definitely places in Malice etc where I kind of rushed them off though yeah.

edit aaa that was weirdly defensive, i just want to drive home to people that this isn't actually just RaNdoM jokegame #3426
