I know it's only been a day or so, but I saw there was a decent number of downloads. Was wondering what people think of it/have any feedback?

[Rikifive 3,411]

It looks so original! I'm interested.

I gonna check this out tomorrow.

I used my game-breaking skills to break your game.

I think I was not supposed to go there:

And I don't know if I did something wrong, but the game got frozen at this point:

Anyway, that game was awesome, I enjoyed that unique graphics and gameplay!

I loved that kind of 8-bit style.

Glad you liked it!

 

I just fixed the "You shall not pass" bug, and how you got into the shortcut area, but how did you end up walking on the walls? Can't figure out how to fix that.

[Rikifive 3,411]

If you fixed the shortcut area, then walking on walls is probably fixed as well.

You can get on a wall when you broke the shortcut and go around to the other side (through the grass halls).

Simply go to the shortcut from the down entrance twice.

 

@ EDIT

Here are the instructions

I realized that the game in its current form doesn't really live up to the title as you don't really "choose" anything, so I decided to alter it to go back to what I originally had in mind of the game.

I added in choices every few floors that will vary from greatly hindering to greatly helping. At the end of each section, a more serious decision between 2

hindrances must be chosen, you must either sacrifice a character or sacrifice everyone's left eye. (See Picture)

 

 

 

I just upload version 1.10 with some tweaks to the game:

-Added story in multiple areas.

-Reworked enemy damage and exp on first floor.

-Fixed Softlock bug at the end of the 3rd floor.

-3 of the 6 additional characters must now be found on the first 3 floors in order to be played.

-2nd area is accessible but untested, bugs are likely.

The Cruel Yet Awesome Quote:

" (...) you must either sacrifice a character or sacrifice everyone's left eye. (...) "

 

That's kinda cruel. =P

...But, it's getting interesting. =]

Are you planning multiple endings too?

For choices like that there should be. =P

 

Oh, and I don't know if I have mentioned that earlier, but when I was playing that game, I had a little problem understanding what the second skill does. (I mean these character's special or something)

[limp3324 2]

There will be multiple endings, and even more weird/awesome choices like that one. That was just the warm up.

 

The 2nd skill for the Ashe was a heal that scaled higher as she got lower in health, it does next to nothing when at full hp, a small heal when around half health, and a 65% heal when near death. I'll put an explanation in somewhere in-game.
