pretty neat! graphics are very cool, takes me back! the town felt like Tristram from Diablo 1 for some reason lol. some mistakes here and there, mixed up "ruins" with "runes" but that's a nitpick and easily fixable. I'd love to have more puzzles! Good one indeed!
Love this!!! Graphics are pretty usually rpg games dont have this!!
thank you for the kind comment!
Cute little game, enjoyed myself! Especially love the world built. The pre renders and sprites go together so nicely!
Hey I really appreciate the feedback, and glad to hear you enjoyed it!
This was a really cool game! I had a lot of fun playing it I loved to music and the story, the characters were also so cool! I had a bit of trouble figuring out the controls at first because they were not what I'm used to (I'm also dumb because I didn't see them on here at first) But once I figured it out everything ran smoothly
and I had a lot of fun with it! ^-^So thank you so much for making this game it was a wonderful and fun experience!
Loved the graphics, Loved the story, It was all amazing!! ^-^
This is a very impressive game. The music sets the tone of the game nicely. You were able to make a mystical world that's art style was refreshing, and surprisingly different from other RPG's. I played the whole thing through. Interesting NPC's, the tree city was really cool. Great stuff.
game froze for me at the cutscene after getting the elven moondial, so i couldn't finish it. a shame! i thought the combination of 3d and rpg maker elements were really cool otherwise and it was pretty well done :)
Thanks so much for the feedback! And I'm really sorry to hear the game froze. I'm currently looking into the cause and making a fix for that. Cheers!
Hey Riggy! Thanks for the playthrough, it's an honor. Always enjoy watching your streams. Thanks to your video, I was finally able to reproduce this bug and fix it.
So the main three fetch quests are meant to be done in any order, however when done in a particular order, the player is teleported to the map for the 3rd cutscene. But the bug causes them to be teleported to the incorrect location (hence getting stuck in the tile as was pointed out).
New game builds are up if you feel like retrying. Otherwise, cheers brother, see ya around 🤙.
