What do you think?

Damn your game is pretty cool and funny , i really love it , hyped to see the full version of the game 😍

I'm not that much into jrpg style games, but it was fun to solve the small chest riddles and meeting the tiles. In the first troll combat I failed and didn't enjoy the combat system, so I gave up. Until there I liked the idea of this story and was curious how it would end. Especially because of the not-so-motivating game title. :D

This was a very interesting game! The amount of stuff that has been put into it is very impressive... I'm going to follow and wait for part two!

This is a great game - hope you finish it after the jam as I would like to finish it. It seems that I didn't reach the end of the demo, since other players mentioned combat, which I did not see. Perhaps the final version would benefit from the beta-testers. At least there seemed to be a few bugs or maybe it was just me who didn't understand the puzzle. Anyway, congrats with a good demo!

You've made a pretty good game, with plenty of content and some cool puzzles.

I can't say I like the combat much, though - I'm terrible at those things, which means I'm always at low hit points and since there doesn't seem to be a way to heal, I am getting insta-killed in pretty much every fight. My timing is awful so it is almost impossible to avoid the attacks, especially the ones dropped on from above and I had to retry 20-30 times each fight to get past it. The bad thing about that is that it forces me to keep replaying the very parts of the game that I don't like, rather than allowing me to focus on the parts that I do like, such as exploring, solving the puzzles, and learning more about the story. Fortunately, the good parts were good enough that I kept playing anyway and made it all the way to the end. It is something to keep in mind for designing this type of game, though.

There are a few bugs in that, when having solved a puzzle, the objects for that puzzle seem to reset so it still looks like the puzzle is unsolved. It's mostly cosmetic, as I can continue playing just fine, but I thought it might be useful for you to know.

Explore a tower full of puzzles and monster in this (kind of) classic RPG !

You play as Glenn, a soldier that fled the army because of his laziness !

Will you make it to the top?

Story:

Legend says that whoever reaches the top of the tower of the goddess will be granted a wish.

But the tower is guarded by fearsome beasts... and is full of dangerous challenges...

Will the king make his wish come true?

Or will a lazy soldier stop him before?

No one knows for sure what is hidden in this tower...

That's right, every one who entered it died...

For nothing...

Here's a look at the Boss encounter screen (this is just a picture but the one in game has cool effects B) !)

(Also I don't want to spoil the bosses so I used a regular enemy instead...)

So the winner of the battle scene poll is the classic "3D like" one !

I worked on it, and it was so fun that I ended up doing one for every room that has a fight in it !

(I also changed the look of the character battle info thing !)

I've been working a bit on the battle scenes, the original (Paper Mario stage like one) or the more classic 3d looking one ?
