About My Mundane Life Is Threatened by the Tropes of an RPG!!!
ABOUT:
My Mundane Life is Threatened by the Tropes of an RPG!!! is a game that is about on the nose about what it is about as your standard Japanese Light Novel.
Yes I purposely use about more times than necessary it is the "about" section afterall, so I feel it's about proper to fill it with them.
You play as Natsuna, a girl who works at a nondescript office doing nondescript work.
Doesn't really matter, that's the boring part! But her daily mundane "life" of a monotonous cycle is interrupted by Slimes, Boss fights, Giant Crabs and more! (Not too much more because the game is short (Sorry ;A;))
FEATURES:
CONTROLS:
WASD to move.
Enter/Return to interact.
X/Esc to cancel.
Enter+Shift to toggle Fullscreen.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
RPG Paper Maker is an engine that is still being worked on so some "standard" features might not exist yet. I'll update this game as improvements are made to the engine so you're always getting the best I can reasonably offer.
KNOWN ENGINE QUIRKS:No native controller support. Using either Joy2Key or Steam Controller solves this issue. Fullscreen toggle bug. UI objects get drawn in locations based on resolution so when swapping they will not be in the correct position, when things get redrawn it will be fixed. Title screen doesn't loop properly. Music doesn't loop properly. Shadow system doesn't work at this scale. Game starts in windowed mode to retain proper aspect ratio. \

gameplay's bad. full of bugs and the story's boring. its the equivalent of a proof of concept game on itchio but for the price of an actual indie game. don't let my 4 hours fool you, its 20 minutes long as long as you don't run into any softlocks. after analyzing the plot repeatedly to see if I was just missing something and looking for any secrets or easter eggs, it's just very bland and surface level, nothing special in the slightest.5 found this helpful
Positive reviews trick you into thinking this game will last more than 15 minutes thank god i got it on sale2 found this helpful
Enjoyable for what it is, its a short game that can be "beaten" in 30 minutes, its more of a visual novel more than anything. What i really loved about this game is the world. It takes itself lightly yet seriously, the main character is relatable to me in how their day to day goes. What really is great is the world itself, its quaint and charming its no bigger than it should be for this story. It's all contained on a small street corner built with a life-like touch. I could envision myself living and spending time in the 7-11 or the appartment. It has a distinctly life-like appeal to me. Im not saying this game is La cream de la cream. Its just quaint and charming. It left me with a big smile after beating it.1 found this helpful
honestly i don't know where to start i loved it so much, it's a very short but sweet game! if you like little quirky visual point and clicks this is definitely the game for you. i like the art style i saw some reviews complaining about it but i actually like it. would be cool if we could click or hold the mouse over the art in the bedroom, or shelves in the 777 and it says something, could be an idea for the remake. looking forward to the remake to see what else the dev comes up with. loved the tanuki reference and the yen cat. loved the kitty we could pet. it is very slightly buggy ( music broke in a cinematic and the frame rate drops if you have it in full screen) and the menu music is a bit loud but nothing game breaking my end. (other then me being a dummy and being stuck in the bedroom for 20mins)1 found this helpful
laughed really hard at POO POO PEE PEE
cute game with a nice message that feels constrained by both the engine it was made in and the short length of the story. but i guess that's why it's getting a remake lmao
