Ser Daine, Franz, Lesfa and Fucker, you'll forever be iconic

gosto muito desse dev já vi ele coringar no twitter

Um jrpg bem simples, com uma história que me deu esperanças num mundo melhor, além dos desings de personagens serem diferentes do que estamos acostumados. Além disso, me ensinou que os socialistas são os únicos que vão querer te ajudar

delightful little RPG, worth every second of your time. i loved the soundtrack and world-building, the designs and art for everything were so charming. battles were also fun and provided some decent challenge. lovely characters as well. play it, it's free!

I found this by chance scrolling through twitter seeing it liked by Happy Paintings the dev of Fear and Hunger and it being a free RPGMaker game on steam I jumped at the oppurtunity to play it.

And my thoughts
It's really fucking good
It's a fun, atmospheric rpgmaker game with a gripping story and cast of characters I was attached to. The main duo, playing as an already together couple in games is very rare, especially ones with such a realistic romantic chilled out dynamic, you can tell they truly love each other.

The combat is mainly your standard rpgmaker affair, has some strategy involved especially in the later areas when you get access to the world map
I've currently been playing through the early FF titles and
this reminded me of the airship traversal and feeling of freedom you get.

Instant death attacks are common but due to the skills you obtain and easy access to recovery items it just feels like another part of the battle you need to work around.

The only real issue I had with it is that a lot of the missions are just kinda go here, kill a thing, especially when you get to the crossroads it just feels generic in the direction and orders given.

Overall a really quick fun and interesting game hope it get's much more attention
