Shattered God - Quest for the Divine Relic

this game has promise but has some REALLY bad design choices. i was having fun (on the first level mind you) when a spell locked my sword in place, not being able to defend myself or attack i was hit repeatedly as i waited for the timer just to be locked again before the timer was up leading to my swiftly demise. i then give it another try and after beating the level you're put into some town and made to do some dumb wheel spin game to be able to ask about the 30 items in a guys chat to get info (there are 3 guys you can do this with). after asking a few questions your bar will ran out so its back to the spiny game. with next to no explanation wtf this is all about i can't get past this part. like does the bar need to be full to get good answers? because when its low i got nothing, and when does he stop giving good info, wtf?!? its like the dev went "whats the most tedious part of rpg's? i know talking to npc! i'll make that worse." if the game was cleaned up it would be a blase but not in its currant state and not just do to the items i talked about. p.s. you'll also notice there are no pictures in this games screenshots and that's because print screen does noting and f12 crash…

Classic that started it all.

seems like a cool game. too bad that on my 2k monitor everything is too small, cant really play like that. enjoyed the stuff i could make out tho

This is a retro pixel JRPG style game with a gimmicky "action" combat component that feels a bit like a mobile game with golf swing style mechanics. While it's okay to try new mechanics, the operational word is "try", that is, you implement in a beta or alpha, test it internally, and only release the mechanic with your game if it's any good. You don't "try" it and when you find it doesn't work, publish the game anyway. That's the kind of thing that gets you negative reviews on Steam. Also, awful retro pixel graphics, and why the heck is the game 4:3 aspect ratio when it was released in 2017? Garbage.

Garbage
