[Grey Story]

I think I get it now.

You'll notice that the girl doesn't see you, even though you're right in front of her. On your way to get an item, you walk by this grave. So now you're thinking, "Okay, someone died... but who?" Then as you bring her more items, the world becomes colored and you become transparent and you get all shadowy. Now you realize that the dead person may or may not be you. When you bring her the final item, she is holding a dove. You float into the sky and vanish completely as she releases the bird into the air. You think, "I died. That's just depressing, but what's with the dove?" Well, the girl released the bird at the exact same time as the guy disappeared. That must have been a metaphor for finally getting over your dead boyfriend after feeling depressed and blank for a while. Those items his ghost brought her before he moved on must have reformed some connection between the couple, and the world returned to its colorful state. I think that means that when the guy died, his girlfriend was devastated, with no hope (the dove), and the world was all dark and had no meaning (color). Then, as you brought her items, she realized that even though he's dead, he never really left. She'll always have something to remember him by. The dove of hope finally appears and she held it in her arms, then let it free, just as if the dove was her metaphorical dead boyfriend. Basically, 'the ones who love us never really leave us.' I thought this was a great way to convey that message, and I think you've changed a few lives, and deaths, in the world now that you've made this game. Congratulations, you made me get emotional.

How to get out of the whale!

You see those discolored teeth? That's what they mean. Go up to the left one, press [SPACE]... can you figure the rest out??? :)

Loved his game as much as the first. Probably my favorite part of the game was when the multi-lingual walrus teleports Nicholas back to wherever he wanted to go, only to land on the mysterious, pointless Chihuahua and vanish into the ground. All that work for nothing, I guess! Just like the first one! XD
Yes, the Chihuahua is completely pointless. So is the haunted house and the old guy telling stories and the idea of collecting the last two DVDs and the battle with the cyborg fish and the rocket launcher AND the secret room. Apparently this game had a lot of deleted scenes! XD
I hope you make a threequel (lulz, I just made that word up)! How will he escape the dog's dimension!?!?!?!? O.o So many possibilities!!!
Keep it up Nicholas! :)

Love this

Hey, how did you make this game? All the RPG Tutorials on NG aren't successful when I try them (Of course, I'm not blaming anyone).

I loved this. The game has this 8-bit feel to it, and it's so easy and fun that you can't help but play it a second time. This proves you don't have to make an entire story-based game to call it an RPG, but it could just be about a regular, swordless guy with no psychic powers, nobody that follows him, no Exp. Points, no HP/MP/PP at all, no random battles, no gold to buy stuff he barely even needs, and no manga-style portrait that shows whenever he speaks. Wow, I just gave everyone the recipe for the most cliche RPG ever made... :P
This game made me smile. It's amazing how funny a person can be without blue material. What makes this game so awesome is it's completely G-rated, and yet so epically awesome. I can't wait to find out how to beat the second game!

Woooooow...

There's something about this game that I just can't resist. I love platformers and I love RPGs, and when you combine the two along with epic action and humor, you've got pretty much the best Flash game ever created. I particularly remembered to actually beat the game BEFORE leaving my review, which is a first for me.
I liked the 8-bit style, wish I could do that... and the effects were pretty cool, despite all the pixels just being pixels. I've completed about 99.7% of the game so far. What I don't understand is the backstory. I think you need to write that down somewhere, as I'm used to having the story explained a bit from the start.
I like how you have to fight your own nightmare in order to progress in the game. I actually kind of liked fighting the Shadow guy. I found out that he doesn't take damage until you collect the Dark Gems he drops whenever he gets hit with his own attacks. At one point though, there was this glitch that made me disappear completely from view. I was a ghost, somehow. I couldn't get hurt, I couldn't see myself, I couldn't do anything but run around and/or watch Shadow run around like a retard while I slowly recovered my eight Heart Containers (XD Zelda reference). I couldn't even collect gems, so I couldn't even leave my nightmare. I was trapped in a dream I couldn't wake from... so I refreshed my browser. :)
Speaking of glitches, something weird happened while I was playing. I magically got trapped under the ground for no particular reason. Only by hammering [X] could I drag myself out of the dirt! Well, I'm not blaming you for the glitches, in fact I can live with them, as the game constantly saves every time I stand by a mailbox. Hey, could I see a tutorial so I can make one of these games? The RPG-platformer combo I mean. And if you perchance make a sequel, could the girl be able to attack the enemies? I thought it kinda sucked that they could attack you, but you couldn't attack back. I guess she's a pacifist or something. XD
Keep it up, looking forward to more games like this!

fuuuuun

I tried to make myself, but I'm a girl and you can't make girls on this Flash... but great work, musta been hell putting this thing together! :)

The-Swain responds:

Some people have tried to make girl characters, but the model used in Minecraft looks like the figure of the dude on the Men's bathroom door. That's what we had to work with.

Very fun

I enjoyed this game! My favorite form was the skimpy lady, and I like how I turned purple (as the lady) when I said I wanted to be good looking! I'm gonna have to play this game about a hundred times JUST to get all the different looks! Make that sequel my rival was talking about!!!
This game reminds me of Earthbound, Zelda, Final Fantasy (though I've never even PLAYED it), and a bunch of other oldschool RPGs, I guess that was the idea, huh?
Nice game, make more, blah blah blah, you probably get it already, am I overdoing this?

[The Company of Myself]

Oh, that's sad.

The second I saw that Katheryn couldn't get out of the pit, I realised I had no choice but to kill her. If only the stupid platform was lower!!! amcpfaowmssladmweftuaoinoiermekamrpso emrvpmoemspfaosmfopsvampom!!! That was me trying not to kill my own character... (:(

AWESOME!

XD I got a life bonus of exactly 89.0000000000002! And then 74.0000000000002...

Dan is my best character, I beat Mindchamber with him, but then I got BANNED...
I can't figure out the damn button minigame though...
Wish I could...
Oh... yes I do...
