Above the Skies

I had meant to write a review for this one when I completed it back in February, but I forgot, so my memory isn't that fresh. It's a short and kind of meh RPGMaker RPG with not all that much going for it. The main characters have what I believe is cool original art, and one of them is a cool furry with anime hair, but there's not too much characterization to them, and not too much mechanical customization since your party is fixed and items are mostly strict upgrades over the previous ones. Very meh. I didn't end up disliking it while playing it, but I wouldn't recommend buying it, since there's a lot better out there.

Fun game! I really liked this game. As an old time gamer I have played many rpgs that you spent hours on and then got so frustrated that you gave up. Not so with this game. Build your levels up and you will have no problem finishing it. This game will take you around 7 hrs if you explore everywhere. Battle system was excellent and lots of treasure to find. If you like a short turn based rpg than this game is for you.

Game was decidedly too short, it had a lot of promise but few locations to visit, no real sense of purpose, the balancing was off and the difficulty spike to the end felt forced to make you go grind. limited encounters meaning that every single battle counted and if someone happened to be dead at the end of the fight it would severely hamper you at end-game... it needed work, but it was a fantastic concept for a game and I hope there's a second one with better direction.

Easy lovely game a bit short though

Don't worry about the play time, I played this game between calls at work. At most, you're looking at like a 5-6 hour game here. This is a fairly minimalist RPG Maker game overall, but I found it relatively enjoyable because of this rather than in spite of it. There seems to be heavy inspiration from games like Skies of Arcadia in this game, although the plot is relatively simple and the dialogue a bit odd with regular typos and incorrect word usage. You won't find a lot to challenge you in this game, and the battle system is easy to understand. The artwork seems to be fairly typical RPG Maker stock, and the stages themselves didn't really have a lot of innovation and mostly seemed to use the "random passages" ability you can find in native RPG Maker. Okay, I know so far I'm not exactly selling the game, but it's a fairly okay RPG Maker game that I recommend more than not, especially at a low price. Oh, and the music is surprisingly well done. I don't know if it was grabbed from somewhere else or if the developer was just really good at that one aspect of game creation, but I didn't really get tired of the battle/boss music. Overall, fun and quick and good for a basic JRPG fix.

good game
