I just had to come by and say that i love this game. Something about it just charms the socks off of me. Even when i get frustrated (usually at myself for being too impatient and making a dumb mistake), i keep coming right back to it. The vibe, the gameplay, the environments... big fan all around. Really hoping for a physical edition!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts! Reading this really does make all the hard work worthwhile. You made my day! I am in fact trying to get a physical edition together, I'll post an update here on this page when it's close to release. Thanks again for playing and I'm so happy you enjoy the game so much! 😊 Have a wonderful weekend!
Awesome, stoked to hear it! Will definitely keep an eye out for updates!
(And not to be annoying, but was playing some more and just wanted to expand a bit: As cliched and cheesy as it probably sounds, this really takes me back to the joy of playing a new NES game when i was young. Having the feeling that i had this whole new little self-contained world to discover, full of mysteries to explore and secrets to uncover 9and booty to plunder]. I play a ton of "retro" games, but not many of them actually give me that feeling. Bustina absolutely does. Just a genuine sense of adventure and discovery and [of course] fun. Thanks again, this is exactly what i needed right now! Best of luck to you!)
Thank you so much for sharing all of this! These comments have touched me deeply. I make my games so people can enjoy them and hearing about this level of enjoyment is just so fulfilling!
It's incredible to hear that what I tried to accomplish with the game came through for players. I may even have to use some of these comments as quotes! Thank you again for playing and sharing your experiences! 😊
I'm in the process of getting assets designed now and then figure out where to go from there, I have a few different manufacturers I've been talking to :)
Hey thank you!! Excellent video, quite an entertaining review and playthrough to watch! Best of luck with your channel! Good content there; I'm subscribing :)
Not sure if it's a bug or what, but I found the sword and went through the dialog, I interacted with it again and the dialog box came up again, but the game locked up and wouldn't respond to any further inputs.
This is a known bug with NESMaker games unfortunately. Sometimes if you go through text a few times in a row it'll get stuck, but it does come unstuck, I promise. I'm hoping to find a way to fix that in a future update.
Awesome! Follow me on retrogaming.social/@holmfry; I'll be posting news of the physical release there first when it happens. :) Thanks for checking it out! :)
Hi, I bought the game a couple of hours ago and I can't download the ROM to play on an FCEUX, and when I wanna download it through itch.io client, only an early beta is available for download
Oh, no! Ok I'll look into what may be going on, in the meantime can you send me an email from the same email you used to purchase the game? I will verify the purchase and send you the ROM 😀

Any chance of a physical release?
Absolutely yes!

Thank you for this - I didn't get too far, but I enjoyed this and felt it was a well worth purchase. Here is my tribute...

Gotcha! Appreciate the quick response.
This will be a physical purchase from me for sure!

Physical version when?
I can't make any time commitments yet, but by late spring/summer I'm hoping to have some available :)
This is a fun exploration/timing game. All that clever innuendo might just cost you the Nintendo Seal of Approval tho!
Thank you for playing and for the review! I'm so glad you are enjoying it!! 😊🙏
It's ok, I've got enough old NES boxes I can cut out my own seal ✂️😆
Amazing game. Quirky at times, emotional at others. And that music was really the highlight of it all 🎶
Keep it up dude, hope you're the next Toby Fox 👍

Thank you for these sentiments, that means a lot to me. 😊🙏
I'm glad you picked up on and appreciated the different vibes I put into it, that's very cool. Thanks for playing!
