Reviews for "Turn Based Battle!"

My main problem...

with fun games like this is that the upgrades and stuff cost way too much
I honestly tried my best to get through this gane, but you can get only so far with the 2 coins that come out when you hit an enemy.
They just dont add up.
And when/if you DO have enough coins for that cool new weapon, you notice you have to buy a potion or revive thing in order to keep your party alive.
Next time, either make things cheaper or make it easier to obtain money.

ooh, it's that time again.

well now, another turn based game, obviously a parody judging by the title and, subsequentally, the title screen.
i also guessed- accurately- that the game would only consist of... ONE battle. and that became more glaringly obvious as i saw that there is no map system, only a joke of a movement system.
now, predictability aside, i can say that the game was entertaining and had a few chuckles involved, but it really didnt have much strategy. start, follow the dotted lines, unlock a new feature, try it out, rely on it, build on it a little bit, game ends. like the shop. as soon as you have money, you buy potions. as soon as you have excess money, you buy a cure spell. you use that until the caster is out of mana, and by that point the boss is on his last two digits of HP. i also found that there was no need to buy weak things. ever. you could stock up and go on a major store binge when a new character joined. as such, i wound up purchasing the multi-hit spell and the cure spell, as well as one JRPG sword. and i really didn't need anything else. the JRPG sword did more damage than the rest of my party combined (except the earth spell) so i'm tempted to bypass spells entirely and equip my party with nothing but buster swords.
too late, game's over. not much point in replaying now.
you never got to know the characters. i LIKED that. because it fit with the parody. there was the obvious selection. balanced main character, caster, brawler, and that other guy that joins too late to be characterized. standard stuff.
as of yet, i havent found any of the secrets, and i don't particularly care, because someone is just going to tell me eventually. and i also like the fact that nothing is TOO LONG. except maybe the action scenes. wouldnt it be nice if you could actually command characters to attack and they did it without a two second delay. and it's worse with magic... but that doesnt need saying.
all in all, it's just a little distraction for a few minutes. some thought went into the engine, some work went into the graphics, but it really wasn't all that well made. i still enjoyed it, but i would probably appreciate the upcoming epic battle fantasy more. shame, most reviews on that go unread.
ah well. i look forward to more time-wasters from you. and... try to find out what your specialty is. i enjoyed the indestructotank games, and the shift series, but as you know, they are getting a little... overhyped. so you might try working a little less on fantastic concepts or old fantastic concepts and start working a little more on gameplay. because, after all, you have the concept part down.

Your powers of perception truly are VAST in number.

Excellently done.

Very well put together from start to end, literally; Only gripe is that you are allowed to select a dead member as the target of a cure spell, removing the availability to raise them with the bread of the gods from the shop.

Thinking that I'd heal people to full THEN raise them -- believing that they'd have full HP instead of 1 -- caused me to have a mildly difficult end-battle with only two characters alive, Ray was the healer while the latest character was the surviving and EPIC melee with a newspaper (Spent my money to give James a JRPG sword and he immediately got KO'd at the end of 1st turn, final phase so he was useless when I tried to heal/raise idea. x_x).

Great Parody!

Simply hilarious.... for people like me who really play JRPGs lol
like the fact that you can't die!

hey.. thats from..

Excuuuuuuse me Princess..

that was a dialog from Zelda:The Animation Series..
very nice indeed.. enjoy the game very much.. :3
