The Hero will be Mine (temp name) - A prototype for the 9/2021 Gain Jam.

Whilst you may dislike the amount of spaghetti in this iteration, take pride in how delicious it is: you’ve cooked a good meal.

yeah this game atm is baaaaarreeeellllllyyyy playable way to many bugs and way to many soft locks will be interesting to see it develop though it’s an interesting idea

Definitely one of my favorite concepts coming out of gain jam this year; I love dungeon keeper style games and one designed to fatten up the heroes is great. It would be nice to see this develop further past the gain jam, maybe with more and tougher heroes to fatten up after the first is incapacitated, and more stuff to put in the dungeons.

Would love to see some balance adjustments, especially since just one level 2 imp essentially wins the game immediately.

Btw, I recently found out what this error that you got is because I saw it as well recently. Apparently, this occurs when the PC has run an applet that uses a newer version of NW.js than what MV uses. So this isn’t a problem with the game, and more a version mismatch with NW.js itself and some of it’s features.

The good news is that this has absolutely 0 effect on RPG maker games. It’s just a bit annoying. The bad news is I’m not sure that I can do anything about it. If I see it more frequently in future releases, I’ll look into if I can do something about it. Otherwise, it’s going to be a low-priority thing for me.

This game has future. The ideia is excellent. I think that, if it gets a good balancing and bugtesting, it can become a classic in this community.
