This started as a simple test for a Brotherhood ARPG, but it became it's own thing as it was fleshed out. Also, the resolution is much different and makes for awkward laptop playthroughs, but resizing it to the same as the other games didn't do it justice. This is made to be a time killer, as well as testing mechanics I might implement into PHASE Two.

The scenario and game design of this game are good for an independant online game, but I can't understand why enemies don't die in this game. I tried to kill as many bats as I could but it does absolutely nothing when I use either my sword or magic. So I couldn't go further in the dungeon after two or three rooms, even if some bats seems to be asleep (the character was just next to them and didn't take any damage). I think they're just here to block Dusk. Could you explain to me what I'm supposed to do ? Thanks in advance. Otherwise, the game seems to be interesting and the score I gave him is just temporary, I won't hesitate to rank it 3.5 stars out of 5 if I'm able to get a good explanation. Have a good day/evening/night.

Thanks for your feedback! When you trigger a battle with an enemy you HAVE to defeat it before you move on to another enemy. It's a bit annoying at first, but it's the only way that the plugins work properly. There's a stone outside of the first dungeon that explains these mechanics in better detail, it's a pretty long read but should explain everything you need to know to complete this game. If you accidentally trigger a battle that you're not prepared for, using the Escape Rope (or Bells later in game) and leaving the dungeon will reset any enemy targets. It's a lot to learn, but it gets easier. I hope this helps, and I hope you have fun!

good
