I'm personally in awe of the way this game constructs its comedy -- like it's funny all over but also the entire structure of the game, every feature of it, is building up to making its ultimate punchline really, really hilarious, and it landed really well for me, and I sort of just want to gush about it to everyone I know? Which I will do responsibly, of course.
Anyway, this is really really fun and funny, and shows excellent mastery of comedy, and you should feel great about it!
Loved this game. Next to the cool battle sprite art, my favorite thing was the hilarious writing. It frequently makes jokes on common RPG tropes but it never feels like it disrespects the genre, while also keeping the story coherent. Also the music is really nice (especially the level up jingle)
Brilliant abstraction of the genre and extremely charming distillation of a lot of different sources. The Dogu guard and the Digimon missile flooded my shit with dopamine.
The MIDI bongos are banging anyway. Hell Knight Theme sounds like MIDI Bitch's Brew. Did you use public domain stuff? I am curious how to procure, whether it's original or not.
That was like a fever dream from getting sick after playing Final Fantasy and eating junk food all night long. And I mean that in the best way possible. Thanks for putting out this silly little thing!
This was a good way to finish off a lazy afternoon. I named the protagonist Guy because they're a little guy. Once again the splendidland charm and humor brightens my day!

I'm so glad to have finished this lovely game with my funny protagonist, Mumpkin! It's always been a pleasure to see stuff by you Samanthuel!
Even after 10 years you manage to make me laugh and have fun with all of your works!
An exercise in the extreme pleasure of meeting a cast of funny little characters!
I think the beacon boys are saying OVER / TSERE instead of THERE. I bring this up because the entire rest of the game is perfect and I love it
I think you’re right!
Really liked that, FF4 is one of my favorite games, appreciated the inspirations. Great humor.
I was grinning the whole time, its just a cute and fun little game

This game was too awesome. Genuinely felt like I just binged seven seasons of a very enjoyable show. Love your work!
