What do you think?

what engine is this on

What engine did you use?

This is what I imagine when you make a text-based rpg in Game Dev Tycoon. Not bad, I'd do a thorough review but I don't see much of a reason.

Not bad, but the balancing is weird and there's quite a bit of grinding. And hey, I love Qbasic and made a lot of games with it back in the day, so keep it up homes.

It's as minimal as an RPG can get!

The Dominicus Dynasty has been trying to expand their kingdom for generations, but a fearsome Chimera and its followers keep getting in the way. King Dominicus III has had enough, and orders his top Paladin to slay the menace. Before they'll be able to defeat it, they'll have to build up strength by slaying everything else in their path.

This is a remake of MansterSoft's second game "Paladin's Quest". The original can still be downloaded on the MansterSoft website (you'll need DOSBox to run it).

The original "Paladin's Quest" was created 9 years ago when I was just learning to code. I personally hated RPG's, and was always more a fan of Arcade Games and a lot of the popular flash games of the time (though I did end up developing a severe Runescape addiction). Paladin's Quest was kind've a jab at how if you removed all of the story elements and adventure aspects of an RPG, it's just a number grower. In fact, the game was completely impossible to beat.

Despite this, Paladin's Quest received warm reviews from some close friends, so I added an overworld, balanced out the unfair stats, made it beatable, added some variation to fighting by adding the separate enemy body parts, and added a small amount of story. I like the look and feel of it, but at the end of the day, it's still a grind-fest.
