I plan to make an RPG (like Final Fantasy VII, Metaphor Refantazio, ...) and was wondering:

What do YOU like/dislike about them?

When the FIRE enemy in the FIRE region is not weak to ice attacks

Also, OG FF7 is more condensed and easier to progress through the story if you have a limited amount of playtime each day, so I appreciate that :)

I played Remake, OG and Rebirth in this order

I agree that whispers feel off, but Rebirth (no spoilers) is quite different from OG. I feel they added whispers to tell "a story from FF7" rather than "the FF7 story". I think whispers serve this purpose

And action is smoother than FF15 or FF16 imo :)

Yup, same for me
I wanna try it out soon to see what the hype is about :)

Never finished Kingdom Hearts, but I love all the other games! Especially Ico :>

BlueSky is cropping the URL... It says "77c4214..." :(
Could you please share that item number, if it's not a bother?

If you use the Examine command a lot, you should map it to a button (like the L button in Earthbound)
That said, the game looks stunning!! Keep it up :)

That's true, funny to think about!
Do you know what the original document is?

Gotta look around and make sure you didn't start a random encounter

Last 10 hours to rate my game for #gmtkjam! It's simple and accessible for any skill level, so don't worry

Play it online, on mobile or PC :)

Not that I can think of, probably producers stop numbering games to avoid problems like "I didn't play Final Fantasy 16 because I didn't play the previous ones yet"

You can play blitz mode in my puzzle game "ZYRBL"! Be quick and place pieces before time runs out! :)

Press X+C when the game loads for this simple, tricky challenge!

Play it online, with the phone's touchscreen or a mouse!

A screenshot from the battle screen! Fighting a wolf and a snake, in true Final Fantasy fashion

A screenshot from the final battle! The king is just standing there menacingly! Intimidating :0

You can guess what this is by now. This is a duck fight, so the Earthbound mood is strong here!

The thumbnail for my game (link in the replies)

I published my entry for the #lovejam2025 game jam, "A Tooth for a Tooth"!
Whether you're a veteran or a casual gamer, this RPG is a fresh new experience from usual turn-based combat :)

Currently working on an RPG for #lovejam2025 !
Fans of traditional turn-based combat should try it this Sunday!

(Also, Final Fantasy sprites as placeholders are charming ♥️)

Thank you very much! :)
The goose is kind of a filler, not to make the screen look empty
I'm trying to complete the game before the end of the month :)

My game (Swan Pong) with a CRT filter applied

I put a CRT shader in my game!
I think it fits the vibe, what do you all think? :)

I'm so used to ALT-F4 my game that now I accidentally ALT-F4 out of every app, help :(

My gf drew this swan for my game! Isn't it sweet? :)

My Pico-8 game "Bot the Builder"

I modified and used your Pico-8 platformer tileset for the GMTK24 game jam!
It was lovely, thank you so much :)

For sure, prototype assets deserve more love x)
