This could be the next big thing if it gets popular enough. keep your end goal in mind while developing, I would hate to see this get cancelled. You very well might go on to make something special.

I just discovered it and it looks like it will be quite entertaining

the demo's pretty fun so far.
I'd also like to make an M&L styled rpg game sometime, what programs could you suggest, if you please?

Remember when the earlier Mario & Luigi games let you perform certain Bros. Moves infinitely? We do! Here's a look at one of the first Duo Attacks you get, which, once upgraded, lets you perform it forever, until you mistime the input!

[Sound on!]

In Mario and Luigi games, if a bro gets KO'd, you have to carry him while dodging attacks, which wasn't very fun - so we decided to scrap it. Instead, Tara or Vyn will just drag the other off-screen.

Also showing off the graphical overhaul for the sewers!

This one's a pretty big update for any Mario and Luigi enjoyers - a certain familiar attack is finally fully implemented, with all five ratings! From missing the command, to timing it perfectly, with different effects to accompany both!!

If you'd like to escape from battle, after choosing the "flee" command, you'll have to withstand one enemy turn before you can escape. If you're a higher level than your foes though, you'll flee without issue!

Introducing: the switch-up mechanic! During the enemy turn, you have two counters to choose from: jump, and hammer! The former is easier to time right, but the latter deals more damage, allowing for some risk and reward.

I've finally finished the Overworld theme! Very proud of this one, as it's my longest song yet. It's inspired by the amazing overworld themes of Xenoblade Chronicles. (could you tell? xD)

We spent some time polishing up attack animations, making the characters shake to give a better visual cue for when their buttons are meant to be pressed, and making the animations more dynamic overall. And now, it's time for enemy turns!
