Most of my testers up til now have been casuals/weeaboos/close friends, so most of my feedback so far has just been, "HAHAHA, COOL."

One of the big flaws of RPG maker (and most JRPGs) is that by the time you make enemies, battles, balance numbers, skills, make skill effects, have a leveling pattern, boss battles, find outside scripts to make the battles non-Dragonquest, etc. you've spent 200+ hours for something that's just not that enjoyable. That's why I'm mainly relying on the humor and puzzles to carry the game.

A few people said that a quest journal would really help with the huge mess of quest chains in the wandering part, but I wanted to see how far I could get without delving back into RPG maker scripts (I wasted a TON of time playing around with those for nothing). I guess now I have to.

-Do you think that the wandering around town bit could even be salvaged? Would cutting down on the item chains help, or is the format itself inherently flawed?
-Did you find the game funny or at least charming? Were there any jokes that were just ugh?
