The Runemaster's Diary

Charming and full of things to discover. Short playtime, but worth the price in my opinion. The humor, mechanics and story gave me the same sensation of wonder as old-school flash games when I was younger: very fun and unique vibes that you'll have a hard time finding in contemporary games.

Great game, 100% would recommend. The combat system is satisfying, it has charming characters, funny dialogue and a nice, cute story. It has some secrets hidden along the way, so try to check every spot so you don't miss anything! I liked the soundtack too. The game is pretty short, but worth every minute played.

this was such a nice game! i had so much fun going around with mac and amber to save the pup, laughing with some dialogues, getting to know some secrets and being left with questions and more curiosity about mac and the world he lives in i really liked the mechanic behind the turn-based combat with the combos, plus is easy to learn and has variety thanks to some items you pick along the way i also enjoyed the soundtrack and the art is very cute, i liked the design of the naranjarinas, they are all so unique, and of course mac our main character is also really cute, with a variety of expressions that you will meet as you play! overall: a nicely done short game with lots of fun :D

Pretty fun game, short and sweet. Characters were charming and dialogues entertaining. I think the combat system could use some polish, like showing you which items are being used on each attack, but it was fun and challenging either way.

GOOD GAME :) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣦⣤⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⡿⠛⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⢿⣿⣷⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠈⢻⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣯⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⢿⣷⡄⠀ ⠀⠀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣶⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣷⠀ ⠀⢰⣿⡟⠋⠉⣹⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⠀ ⠀⢸⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀ ⠀⣸⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠛⢻⣿⡇⠀⠀ ⠀⠸⣿⣧⡀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⠶⠀⢠⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⣽⣿⡏⠁⠀⠀⢸⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⢹⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣦⣄⣀⣠⣴⣿⣿⠁⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

First I will say I know the developer so I am trying to give the most honest review I can. This is so I can see them grow and improve. First say I really like the game and I am really impressed one person did this. Summary: The good: The battle system, the dialogue, THE ENDING! The bad: some lack of polish, the duration. Normally JRPGs try to grab you with battle systems that are complicated, in a way to promise you will stay engaged with it for its duration. Normally this brings good boss battle, but ton of really repetitive random encounters, that mostly serve to grind up. Runemaster's diary does none of that, but rather have a well crafted simple system that makes every battle feel like a boss battle. You have only a limited set of actions (and combo's ... but those are basically actions) but in every battle I felt all serve some function to allow me to defeat enemies. Either by dealing damage efficiently, or by stalling enemies stronger actions. It is really hard to find any RPG that puts that kind of care in its design, and this is what I loved most about the game. The dialogue is incredibly funny, with almost every interaction giving you either some back up story of the…
