In the itch link, you’ll find the full game for free listed as ‘demo’, but a paid ‘Supporter Edition’ exists as well (also on patreon for any paid tier member!) that contains a small side-quest that unlocks a cosmetic item for the protagonist Genma!
A new story of Magic and dungeons awaits! But, is there a familiar feeling in the air?
The game goes through Chapter 1, so it is very short (~2 hrs). Currently, there is no loss condition (other than losing to a story boss), the game will have no new events after fighting the 2nd Great Foe (after about 14 days).
The game style is a bit different to my other projects, with greater focus on simple RPG mechanics. I did try to sprinkle a secret or two, though the game may end a lot sooner if they aren’t found, haha. Let me know of what you think of this approach!
I’m glad I finally managed to complete a game this year. If you’re curious about the game’s development, where I’ve been or the current status of my other projects, I recommend reading this itch post!
Played it, was good for the snippet we got. Only thing I’d critique is if there’s a way to check what milestones you’re supposed to be hitting it isn’t immediately obvious. Can’t wait to see more.
In chapter 1, each unit has varying amount of stages (check picture gallery for hints as to how many!). For example, Genma has 1 WG stage and 1 BE stage (must be done in order).
For the most part, stages are unlocked through hidden conditions, but the 1st WG stage is required before the other conditions can be met.
For gallery completion, I recommend finding the recruit in the Beginner Dungeon as soon as possible!
I have no Idea how to unlock the weight gain stages, I just beat the second story boss (great foe) and unlocked the credits, I only need to unlock the last boss in the Exceed Dunegon where I need the 99 soul stones. Any help how to unlock weight gain for all the 5 characters?
Another interesting, weird game from Nemtropy. Feels oddly overwhelming compared to the other ones, this time, though. Learning the elemental system and trying to figure out what you are even supposed to do is so odd, especially with the somewhat funky English of the game. I figured it all out eventually and even had fun, but this one really does feel strange to figure out everything.
I believe it is just impossible to get all the images/weight stages in Chapter One, despite the Gallery. And impossible to fill in the Bestiary without Patreon support (annoyed me to no end for about an hour).
For the milestones/weight gain content:
Spoilers
Genma/Usurper Genma:
Create and then equip a Soul Stone. WG+1.
Level up Gaoledone to Level 3 by beating Montefreya on Floors 1-3. He can randomly shows up any time you hit the Floor button. BE+1.
I believe you need to do both to unlock Mowaco in the Beginner Dungeon.
Yriosa:
Unlock her by beating her once Day 7 begins.
Create and equip a Soul Stone on her.
Mowaco:
Unlock her by finding her as a random drop in the Beginner Dungeon once Genma gets both WG and BE up.
Create and equip a Soul Stone on her. WG+1. This should unlock Reco after a new day.
Once done, you can begin feeding her Soul Stones like you could with Genma.
Te-Mawoco & Reco (they share WG and Milestone Progress):
Unlock Te-Mawoco by sleeping for 2 days after Mawoco is unlocked.
With me being at 22/32 pics and subtracting the 5 Patreon one, I think what I am missing then is Razzle’s WG content. I think that is actually bugged, as she doesn’t increase in weight at all, despite me clearing all events.
razzle wg stages are a bit unintuitive as you first must recruit te-mawoco (feed mawoco 20 soul stones), this will cause an event to occur when talking to razzle which enables progression in her wg stages
if done after floor 1, it will be impossible to have her final wg stage
How do I get Te-Mawoco to gain weight? I’ve already fed her 99 crystals and I don’t understand what else needs to be done. It was also too difficult to knock her out of the mimics, I was already in despair when she fell out anyway.
I’m sorry but how on earth do i unlock more gallery pictures? I have every character unlocked and beaten the games content but i cant figure out how to get stuff like further mawoco pics or the BE pic.
Edit: Triggered ALL the stuff for mawoco and the cat girl accidentally. didnt realize i had never given the cat girl a soul stone, nor that all the new content is for Te. Still cant figure out how to do anything with Genma though and ive tried so much random stuff. Also, bit sad the maid doesnt gain when you give her a soulstone.
Genma’s BE stage requires her to be in her transformed form and exploring the Exceed Dungeon. Once you attempt to change floors on Floor 1, you’ll get a hidden battle, after that, do the same on Floor 3.
Her last set of images are from the cosmetic outfit found in the Supporter Edition, and require you defeat an enemy called ‘Strawberry Mimic’ in the Beginner Dungeon.
Maid character will definitely be more prominent in chapter 2!
Did i break something? ive been the transformed form for a while and have explored every floor yet i didnt get that. Glad to hear the maid will be in more of the game though!
