Made for the RPG MAKER 2025 GAME JAM

FIXED BUILD DOWNLOAD (Not for Judges, for anyone else who wants to play with bugfixes / improvements)

Play as The Child, a young boy who gets kicked out of their home to go get a job.

This game is incredibly unfinished, untested, and raw. Please excuse any drop in quality; this game jam version does not meet my personal quality standards.

We will heavily update the game after the game jam is over.

Expected playtime is around an hour.

FEATURES

- Custom UI

- Hand-Drawn cutscenes, enemy sprites, and portraits

- Custom Soundtrack

- Turn-Based Combat

- Logic and Symbol Puzzles

NOTABLE BUGS

- Exiting a shop instantly opens the pause menu.

- The final boss is incredibly easy (you get maximum HP and attack); this was a holdover from playtesting that I forgot to remove. (Only in Release Build, this was fixed in the most recent build.)
