That was pretty fun! The strongest part of the demo for me were the characters, their motivations and interactions with each other. They felt like a set up for something bigger down the line, which is something a demo should do! Combat is simple and works (though camellia getting a skill that makes you deal less damage to the boss right before the fight was kinda weird), i like the suggestion that future enemies will have different strenghts and weaknesses. Camellia definitely loves her what-the-hells and why-the-hells, but i definitely enjoyed the game as a whole. Have a nice day and good luck with the game!
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed the characters. To me it's the most fun part about creating a game. I'll take note of the balancing issues with the spells, which is also the hardest part about working in RPGMAKER lol. TYSM AGAIN.
this was so so darling!! ♡ i love the setup you have so far ー my favourite character by far is lionheart! lionheart definitely subverted my expectations of a gruesome and fearful dungeon boss, and i'm excited to see more! the eye mage is also fascinating ー i genuinely jumped when her face shifted!!! ♡
two suggestions we have are a basic guide for controls, when first starting the game ー if they were present, as a gamer going in blind we could not find them! we had to experiment with button pressing.
another suggestion is for this review page, in fact ー the text is a little difficult to read! although we love the aesthetic, since it is so small and pixelated, as someone who is considered borderline legally blind it is very hard to discern! 😭😭😭
other than that, this is already very charming as a demo!! i hope to hear more of your ventures!! ♡
Thank you so much for your suggestions, its always super valuable to hear from other perspectives! I'll for sure add a guide in the full game and see if I can add a way to have multiple fonts that you could switch between. Thank you again!!
i absolutely loved this, i'm super excited to see the full game! i love how camellia interacts with the other characters, even in such a short demo! the art style is super cute, seeing the subtle difference in walk/run animation made me smile so wide
The quotes in this game were too funny XD. I don't play a lot of RPG Maker games but I had a good time with this one! Except that witch man... last time I piss her off.
I heard you were looking for reviews on Toyhou.se? I enjoyed it - I entirely forgot I was playing a 15 minute demo in order to review it, just focused on the story, and got shocked when left with a cliffhanger haha, excited to see how this goes. Not sure if you wanted like negative feedback as well, but if you do, seconding @ShadowOath's critique of the cave. The characters were good and I'm intrigued about their histories from the glimpses we get ^^.
This was an interesting demo, at first I thought I had gotten stuck in the cave but I finally found the next room. I would suggest making it a bit more visible to the player where they are supposed to be going. But otherwise the characters were neat and really cutely drawn. TH name is ShadowOath
this was so good! I love all the characters and the changes that were made to the game. The cutscenes were really good and I adore the artstyle of your games.
The story was also very interesting and unique! I loved the characters and their interactions. My personal favorites are Camilla and Laurel, but the newly added character Lionheart is also really cute!
This demo was short, but it was a great first impression and I'm excited to play the completed game!
Earnest, full of soul, Beautifule. I died and The Tale of the Past - Retold (DEMO) gently nurtured me back to the world of the living. Short and sweet but in that time it establishes a loveable cast and central theme of friendship and acceptance im intrigued to learn more about... Our protagonist is so one track minded yet it seems she still yearns for connection outside of her proclaimed savior. Make more immediately or I will rate your game 1 star for edging me!

"5 pieces of leaf"
"Charms the enemy, how scandalous"
"Don't goblins evolve or something?"
