Description ok, made this in under 48 hours for the RPGDX 48 hour RPG making jam

the theme was 'LOFI' which I interpreted in the gameplay, I tried to include the bare minimum for an RPG and this is what came out of it.

I originally wanted to make a more traditional rpg but once I got this in my head it was too fun not to do, though I dont really think its too fun to play, but maybe some people will like it, I dont know

oh, and before anyone asks the 3D in this flash is powered by papervision.

Awesome game & Story! I tried to find out whats the max level after I finished game. I ran back&forward for a while and reached 51 and it still gains lvls..

Still namedropping this one all the time when I want to sound fancy while talking about games. Usually accompanied by words like "meta", "post-modern parody", and "mustard".

Also what's up with custard and mustard being so similar? One of your Englishers clearly planned that as a sort of practical joke on us foreigns.

similar? phonetically only, try putting mustard on your dessert and you'll find the difference soon enough

Which is precisely why this is so devilish! Also, why weren't you at gamecamp? You would have totally enjoyed that.

It's basically a lot of very smart people coming together and being smart about videogames. They also let me in, for some reason. [link]

I tried to talk about "Games as Sport", but two of the people who came to my talk were very confused about the concept. It was still good fun!

Isn't it a bit ironic that FFXIII looks like it seems to like this? Except of course with better production values.

This game is just too awesome (insert exclamation marks)
I thought Tseret nievol = Love interest was pretty interesting. The creative use of one dimensional side scrolling rpg game is too great. The entire method of the telling of the story is phenomenal. (explodes)

I especially loved the part where Kliche moved from the 10th inn to the 11th...
It was so dramatic, I fell out of my chair confused and alone!

not exactly the most engaging gameplay, but you did really well to meter the scrolling speed vs xp leveling. i don't think there was ever a point where i ran out of story to read.

This was very clever!

If you did ever make a sequel though, it would be interesting if it had a few branches that you could take for alternate endings. And even if it had a few choices, it would still be pretty much linear.
