Hello! For the tileset category, can I upload more than one tilesheet? In the rules it says that you can only upload one, but water tiles and wall tiles need to be their own separate images to work in editor, is there a problem if I upload more than one image?
And, is there a problem if, in my asset's page I include a link in case people want to commission me? Or would it be best to not put it?
This? Absolutely fantastic! I truly enjoyed the experience, although the endings I did manage to get, made me very melancholic (in a good way). I WANT MY HAPPY ENDING PLEASE!!!
That aside, I must say, the pacing of the story, the choice of music and the choices you had to make throughout, really made this a very nice experience. I loved how it felt very much like a JRPG adventure. All while playing this I kept thinking how amazing this game would be if you actually had time and a team to help you. Maybe with some turn based battles, more time to develop the story and actually being able to explore the areas you visit. This is a really promising project. If one day you decide to expand it beyond it's current scope, I wouldn't mind paying for a more complete experience, RPG experience.
The game might not be the most unique at what it does, but honestly as an RPG, character focused story? It does it's job very well. The plot twist at the end might have been predictable, but the feeling that I couldn't do anything about it? Yeah, that's what sold it for me. I kept looking back, trying to see what I could've done to make things right, to get the ending I wanted (and realizing that, maybe, the ending I wanted just wasn't possible, I couldn't save everyone), and that's what I liked about it.
I must also congratule you on the gameplay loop experience. Pick a place to go, introduction to the place, solving the issue, getting an aftermath scene, all the while getting to know the characters and exploring their doubts, insecurities, and relationships with eachother, rinse and repeat until the climax at the mountain. This is fantastic, it shows you put some thought into planning out the game, and it shows! Although, I do wish the characters were a bit more unique/had more defining characteristics, so that I might be more attached to them (However, I can see how your intention, was for, I suppose, the characters to be more flexible, to fit the player's choices).
Either way, this project has a lot of potential. I would however, maybe take a closer look at the scene selection screen, clearly there's quite a few bugs that need to be adressed. Even if I was content with the few endings I saw, others might leave feeling frustrated and like they would need to play the game all over again to avoid the bugs.
I wish you the best of luck, your project is fantastic and I hope a lot more people play it. Easily a 4/5 experience.
Great game! Even if it was short, the gameplay was very nice. The to-do list was a great feature! The story was short but nice to see play out. The art and pixel art was gorgeous and very fun to see, specially during cutscenes. Amazing work!
