Ha hah! RPG making!

Ha hah! RPG making!
Hello everyone! I am Unshorn Ram! I recently got into the IRC, and have decided to come here and join the forum. I also have something incredibly exciting to share with everyone!

I am making an RPG!

Eventually, I'll have custom sprites and music and all, and am HOPING to get it published on steam or GoG or something else, but for now it's a work in progress. As such, feedback would be super cool!

I'll note now, the game will always be playable. A thing or two might be missing, but there shouldn't be any game shattering bugs.

And the best part...the link will never change! I'm just that great.
Thanks in advance if you do give it a shot!

Unfortunately, it's an .exe file, so I don't think Macs can run it.

That would be pretty awesome, actually. The sooner I find people, the better. And if it sells, you get dollars.

We'll see! For right now, any feedback anyone can give me would be awesome.

RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
I've played for about an hour, which means I've finished the mines and am about to go to the beach. Here are some feeds back; I mostly stuck with stuff that I felt could use improvement or mistakes I noticed rather than positive feedback because it's more useful for development:

no no, it is a coat worm
#14
RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
Thanks! I've already fixed some of the smaller things, like Wild Splash, the warpstaff, etc. The random battles might be harder to change, but I'll see what I can do with those.
#15
RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
At least put a bit more distance between them. I approached a treasure chest 4 spaces away and there was a battle at each

Slorange there are actually many spelling errors everywhere. If Ram could just pm us all the dialogue up to our respective points in the storyline, they can be easily fixed
#18
RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
I don't think it's possible to just pm us the dialogue, since like, isn't every message string like, scattered throughout the file in their appropriate places? i don't think it's like, there's a big text file and then whenever you talk to an npc the npc will just read the appropriate section of the text file

RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
I'll work on the game this week, I just got my new job and it's 9 hours a day of getting ready for it, so it'll be limited. Thank you guys a bunch for the feedback, though!
#20
RE: Ha hah! RPG making!
ALRIGHT!

So, I did a big ass overhaul.

There are no more random encounters.

I got some code, did some fiddling, and for the first two dungeons, all the enemies are on screen, and will ONLY MOVE WHEN YOU MOVE. You can avoid them, fight them, whatever! I'll put everything in the main post, but I recommend making a new save for this. Note, ONLY the first two are done for now.
