Final Fantasy Tactics ripoff
Well... i liked, but as the scahkruhtees wrote... it's too slow. A more fast interface, together with a more pleasent camera would make it up to 9/10.
also...get some more inspiration over final fantasy tactics, about those issues, you could find a nice solution.
Has sooo much potential, but..
There's just so much room for improvement, first of all the game is jam-packed with bugs, things like characters disappearing and turning into chests, enemies disappearing, randomly not being able to attack at the start of a turn, a fair few display bugs. Also I found out that I could decide which direction the enemy went by clicking on their direction boxes just before they moved...
Putting bugs aside, the gameplay was rather slow and repetitive. At first I didn't mind the speed at which the battles progressed, but in the later battles it's just such a bore, and Kronus and the archer only ever had 1 attack each, which was even more boring. Kage had a fair few different spells which was nice, but I found him rather pointless, Kronus and the archer could do the same, if not more damage than Kage but they didn't have to use MP. I think for this reason Kage's magic should've been stronger.
Also, the look of the characters didn't change after equipping new armour/weapons, for today's standards that's not going to do your game any favours.
I would really like to see a sequel of this game, because I did enjoy it, but I just think there's so much more you could've done. With faster, more varied gameplay, better balanced characters, harder enemies and more of a challenge (I finished the game at something like level 11), and weapons/armour that actually changed the characters look this game would be a winner.
Oh another thing, I noticed alot of the time the tiles that made up the battle ground's didn't align very well, also I think it would've looked better if there were more tiles under the top layer, going off the bottom of the screen to give the battle grounds a more solid look.
I hope you can take some advice from this review, because i'd reeaaally like to see a sequel.
I've played this before
This is almost just like a game from the PS1 called Vandal Hearts. I really liked this game because it is so much like the other one. There are a few things that could be tweaked though and what is with the horrible glitching that happens when you play it for more than 30 minutes?
Good game.
This is obviously some of your best work yet. The tactical RPG angle worked very well. On the other hand, combat was a little too sluggish to really pull me in.
Final Fantasy Tactics.
Felt like FFT from the start. Loved that game, so this one seems pretty fun =D
