What do you think?

woah this game has some awesome pixel art! I'm interested now haha-

I love all of the style from this game! I can't wait to see how it evolves even more over time! <3

So, this is an RPG. You've caught my attention.

The game's art style reminds me a lot of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and I love that! I'm interested to see what this game has in store.

Can't wait!

TL;DR: It's Chrono Trigger but it has town-building mechanics with a time-travel twist!

SOMEWHEN is a retro RPG inspired by Dark Cloud, Dark Chronicle, Chrono Trigger, and Rogue Galaxy. Enjoy dungeon diving, resource gathering, and town building mechanics. In Somewhen, you must help Idyll and company restore a fractured world with an uncertain future using a curious time-travelling train and a little something called the Conductor to rebuild entire towns. Your goal is to quite literally reshape the future by placing homes, trees, and other structures in the present. Rebuild towns using a system like Dark Cloud's while fighting for your future with a battle system reminiscent of Chrono Trigger.

Fight, fish, build, cook, and invent your way through several chapters guaranteed with hours of play through a unique dungeon stage system and challenges.
Collect hundreds of items. Migrate special NPCs to your new towns. Invent new weapons and trinkets.

Take world restoration in your own hands.

I've been meaning to have this effect for winning boss fights for ages now.

Removed all flashes from this attack and others, opting for a deep rumble instead. Also changed the charging animation and attack pose for while it's actually happening. Replayed the casting animation over and over throughout the attack for more juice.

The night sky...

Quick bug fix concerning sprite layer priority when attacking an enemy physically. Also, these particular enemies have a more distinct "ouch!" sprite.

Nothin' too crazy. Finally finished the look of the Save/Load screen. Thinking about putting decoration or vertical bar going up the blank spaces of the bookmarks to show progression.

Haiku can deal damage from afar or up close and personal, dealing slash damage to foes.

A tear in the fabric of time and space appears before you. What do you do?

Expanded on cooking quite a bit to act a bit more... familiar.

Double and triple techs now properly take from the Chrono Union bar.

Here's an old Double Tech called "Meteor Spike" that I created years ago. Still pretty effective!

Some of the Grudge you'll encounter are colorless and so their weaknesses are unknown--except to Oils applied to a weapon that they're susceptible to!

Also, sometimes other party members will react to something happening on the field! (Totally not a bug)
