Note from the developer (me! :3)

Furquest is a game I’ve been working on since April of 2017 and it’s been a long journey from then till now! At it’s heart, Furquest is a game about friendship and the bonds we form with those closest to us.

To give you a better idea of the game’s vibe, a couple inspirations include Undertale, WarioWare, Cooking Mama, and even certain aspects of shows like Avatar and Steven Universe!

moon: Remix RPG Adventure

moon: Remix RPG Adventure

In 1997, the now legendary anti-RPG “moon” launched in Japan. Now, under the watchful eye of its original creators, it’s finally in English!

Have you ever felt it odd that the heroes of RPGs go around opening villagers' closets and stealing from them? Or that they travel the world indiscriminately killing all monsters they meet? This game looks at the RPGs we all know and love from a new perspective.

Story

One moon-lit night, a young boy is sucked into the depths of his television set.

He falls into a place called ‘Moon World’, and thus begins a search for love in order to recover the lost moonlight.

Here, the mighty hero of Moon World murders innocent animals for experience,

but the boy’s growth comes from saving the souls of the animals and gathering the love in the world.

Yes, in this game, you level up by loving, not fighting.

The inhabitants of this world are all unique. Observe their daily lives and learn where they hide their secret love.

“Now, please, open the door!”

An RPG without battles - Save the monster’s souls -

All the monsters killed by the ‘hero’ are actually just innocent animals. As you explore the game, you will encounter the bodies of these pitiful creatures. But, if the boy can catch their souls, they can be saved.

A living, breathing world! - Peek into the secret lives of the NPCs -

Moon World’s residents go about their routine lives, depending on the time and day. The florist goes to work in the morning, and the castle guards arrive at their posts. Some folks have secret midnight hobbies, and others just spend their days fishing.

MD System - Choose your own soundtrack -

In moon, you can choose your own music. By using the special music playing Moon Disc(MD) function which appears in the game, you can walk around the map listening to the tracks you like in the order you set them.

Incredibly deep expression of a very sad event in the history of the world. Excellent game and time well spent!

A gentle and relaxing game that allows the player to immerse themselves within history. I never thought I would feel such nostalgia from a quaint little town, or receive goosebumps upon my finishing of the game. Though the movement was a bit awkward at times, the shading and colours of Curon were stunning, and the soundtrack was beautiful. The story is novel-like, the visuals are picturesque, and you will walk out of this piece of art with a fleeting, but haunting experience of a tale from the past.

Apopia: Prologue

Apopia: Prologue

Great game! Seen how it’s been the works for awhile, being fed bits of juicy new content on my instagram feed and now it’s finally out! SO you know when you’re reading a reaally good book and can’t put it down, or watch a great movie and walk out feeling like a new person? Well, THIS IS THE SAME, but game format.

Gameplay - Apopia’s gameplay is super fun - puzzles and mini games are a refreshing break from all the shoot-em-ups/build-your-adventure/brainless time wasters out there nowadays.

Art - the setting of Yogurt, and the Castle are gorgeous to look at with its soothing colour scheme and lighting.

Ok, so I have been advertised this game so many times on my Instagram and decided after the 5th time to actually play the game. Initially, the game seemed like it was going to follow in the footsteps of Undertale where you fall down and meet unusual characters when you fall below. However, playing further into it I can appreciate the amount of effort put into the character and level designs, and I love the point and click aspect with a simple and slightly rough art-syle. The music is absolutely banger, I would definitely listen to the soundtrack if it was put onto Spotify. Although the ending for the prologue was rushed in a way that I did not understand what was happening because too many concepts and events were happening at once, I like the route that the game took. I look very forward to playing it when it is finished. If you are interested in playing this game, I really suggest sitting back and just listening to the unique and fun songs and gander at the character designs because frankly, they’re so distinct and wonderful!

The game was actually pretty fun and in some case, emotinal. Despite being small, it does deserves respect

(i edited out the problem that this game had)

A nice, fun little game! There are three areas (clans) and each of them have their own plot and style of gameplay to complete the tasks (fighting, puzzle solving, etc.). It’s a little short (around an hour-ish) but you’ll be invested pretty much the entire time in that hour and the game definitely has its charm.

Growing Up

Growing Up

Interesting spin on the “visual novel” genre that is lovingly crafted, but has its issues and is not quite as expansive as the store page makes it out to be. Still, considering the price, it is worth it, and given the casual nature and the topic, also suitable for people just interested in trying out this kind of games, or for those who would be turned off by weeb stuff.

Rating: 7/10

As is obvious, the game revolves around growing up and going through all of the early stages of life, and it does a remarkably good job at it too, at times at least. The characters, although in some regards laden with cliches, are fairly well written and I am not ashamed to admit, objectively looking at how I behaved and what I thought as a teenager especially, and what I remember of my friends, this is pretty spot on, lol. Unfortunately, the earlier stages of the game are quite rushed, and they are more of a short tutorial than anything, which is a bit of a wasted oportunity - the game really starts when you reach teen years.

UPDATED REVIEW @ 22 Hrs:

Growing Up is a life simulation that fairly-accurately simulates the experience of growing up in a relatively affluent family in a reasonably well-to-do area of the United States in the mid-to-late 1990s.

I’m a fan of this game for a lot of reasons. The writing is pretty good, and the resource management gameplay is challenging enough to be fun while never feeling unfair or too difficult. The music ranges from unobtrusive to fantastic, and the interface is intuitive; simple without being too stupid (more on this below). If you’re a fan of resource management games, or if you like visual novels and don’t mind some casual gameplay mixed in, this is one to pick up even at full price.

I’ve never played anything like this before! It has so many different parts to the puzzle and leaves you on your own more than I expected which I think is actually really satisfying and engaging to work through. Being both stimulating and calming I feel I can play it any time of the day and similarly it would appeal to all ages. It’s handmade artwork and graphics makes the fantasy land of Pipshire come alive. Finally, it has all the thrill and immersion of a whodunnit combined with the calm that life can lack - I would definitely recommend this game.

A really enjoyable game. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Can be played at your own pace, alone or with friends. Could easily be made into a tabletop/dinner party game. You can see my more in depth review here:
