After looking back, I honestly do think I did really poorly in some areas of the game. I'm really hoping the sequel I'm working on now improves on it overall; compared to what I'm working on right now, I just get this... GIGANTIC feeling of genuine disappointment in myself for making something so flawed when I go back to play this game in short spurts. It's my obligation to make entertaining games for you all; and I'll be damned if this next entry doesn't do just that.

Hey, so I played your game. Just want to comment and send a few notes your way.
Fixes Needed: - Save-O-Tron 3000 computer repeats the same event even though I heard it inside Joe's house - Walk on platform in Weapon Shop - Conversation with Broski and Jabron happens when interacting with gold... Even though they aren't in my party - During the scene when Sorrow give Ralph the potion, Ralph's sprite is cut off from the tops of the boxes - In city, Save-O-Tron is offset with the event (
Flaws: - Sometime run-on conversations - Holy shit, lots of sexual innuendo (might be a turn off for others)
Suggestions: - When talking to the blue haired guy in Item Shop, use facial expression with Joe after the guy commented on him being Jack Frost (consistant in conversation faces) -
Positives: - Define tally 17+ right from the first scene - Characterization is realistic and maintained - Aside from the vulgar behavior found in almost every map, I laughed at a few random conversations found throughout the game. - Variety of characters - Great tutorials - Hidden items! I've never felt so good when I decided to randomly check that location. - Personally, I like the breaking of the 3rd wall. "Cool music" "Don't change the subject." - NPC are dynamic; they know what's going on around them.

- checked armour stand in beginning to gain first set of gear. - Checked graveyard to obtain better gear set. - Found secret in Storage Area - Leveled to 4 on slimes before saving. Trained in area that the slimes appeared since most slime spawns were found. - Died 3/4 way to level 5 - Ending power leveling. Results: Level 5, $375 profit, 22 death potions, 20 chaos tonics. - Ran straight down but mysteriously Joe died - Restarted - 1-shot grand slime with fireball spell++
I stopped at the point where you fight giant Ralph. I seriously didn't know what to do next.

- ...ah, forgot all about that. Thanks for reminding me - That too. - OH CRAP LOL; I totally missed that part. I'll fix it as soon as I can. - That was intentional, actually. - I'll fix that.

- To both; yeah, that style of dialogue isn't for everyone. If you're not a fan of it then that's fine.

Glad you liked several parts of the game!

Since you took your time leveling up and whatnot! With the correct amount of time spent, the game can become a cinch if you level up alot and get plenty of items.
And I'll copy-paste what I posted in the spam thread:
He jumps in a circle; it'll take a bit to memorize his route but it really shouldn't be terribly hard.
You have to hit all the switches in 6 seconds starting from the first switch you hit. The switches are supposed to weaken Ralph so you can do significant damage to him. It's best to switch to Jabron once you weaken him and smack the crap out of him with Nunchucks (assuming you bought a pair). If you learned Fire with Joe you can just mash the button it's binded to and use his current Club once he's weakened as well since that'll work too.
Hope you manage to make it to the end; you're just getting started with the game! Dunno when the next version of this game will be out, but I'll get it out eventually.
