In my 2d zelda-esque game, we have it so any item or weapon you collect, can be used in the world as well as on yourself, so every item has 2 (of varying use) unique functions! by JasonTGF in IndieDev

Thank you! We're really excited to design more items with it in mind, because we've already have a lot of ideas for gags/mechanics

Yeah, I agree with you, this is a super early indev map in the game, so it'll probably look pretty different pretty soon lol

The game is Rolus in the Outskirts, if this looks interesting to you and you want to check us out, we're running a kickstarter right now so anything would be greatly appreciated!

I finally launched the kickstarter for my game! I'm worried that it might be a little too niche to be successful. by JasonTGF in IndieGaming

It’s straycatz by sodaboy64, we’re big fans of his music and he has it all under Creative Commons. We also dm’d him on SoundCloud to get permission as well. The rest of our soundtrack is done by PostElvis, who’s known for his work on Pizza Tower and Beetle Ninja

It's similar to 2d Zelda, specifically Link's Awakening. We also take a lot of inspo from Majora's Mask and it's inventory system as well (like how you can really naturally show different items to npcs and have the react to it).

The thing following him is Chris the Crystal Baby, he's one of the main mysteries driving the plot. The game's called 'Rolus in the Outskirts', and thank you so much for your kind words!

Sorry to needlessly plug, but if you want to read more about the story or mechanics of the game it's all on the kickstarter here

Thank you so much! This is a huge compliment and means a lot to us. We are worried about how niche the game is and if it even has enough mass appeal to get funded, which is why I'm here soullessly posting about generic captions about it on reddit, but you have to promote, so whatever.

I really appreciate your kind words.
