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.

Just a small menu update! There's a separate main menu now for Build Mode. I'll expand on this (probably). For now it's doing its job in letting you know what each georama element costs and a preview of the building. Don't worry! Materials are abundant!

This should be the last time I update Subzero Slugger, Idyll's signature move. Probably.

Didn't even know what bit 'em.

"CRT" filter option added. Here's a side-by-side comparison. It'll animate in the overworld and it won't in menus. By default, it is OFF.

You can find these posts about what I do or about Somewhen on Twitter if you'd prefer some this and some commentary. I'd also like to apply to be a creator once a certain pre-requisite is met! I'd appreciate a follow there!

Added borders to "BUILD MODE" as well for some extra flair.

On this episode, Sun changes the HUD for the millionth time. Both the clock and the compass now look like the rest of the UI.

3 GIFs. Everyone likes Mimics, right? Well, they've been behaving quite well in my tests for monster behavior and off-screen dismissal. Following proximity and battle trigger proximity were both adjusted to feel a bit more natural.

You can call for a "Time Out" in battle. This is escaping from battle, but you are also warped to the last safe point you encountered in your travels. Enemies slain in battle remain slain until next respawn, so you can chip away at battles if you need to.

Equipment menu updated and more streamlined. New "Special" stat introduced. Durability added to trinkets. Rare "Star Hourglass" item that permanently repairs trinkets. A special sticker represents that. Sub-weapon slot removed (RIP baseball strats).
