Thanks so much for using my assets!! I finally got around to play the game :3 It's fairly short! I'm interested in the story and where it's going. I really like the character design and the atmosphere of the game. Also I don't usually like voice acting but I really liked it here, with the atmosphere I found it really worked!
I've gone and interacted with items around the world, and one piece of advice I want to give is when players interact with items, make sure it's the event is set on the interactable tile (shelf for example) and event activation is set to "when interacted with" (or something like that). Another thing is I went to the breakroom and then back to the store and the opening dialogue played again. I'm assuming you've used an autorun event that self disables at the end, or something like that. A way to disable it for good is to use a local switch (for example, at the end, turns on local switch B -> create a new empty page that only runs if local switch B is activated). It's been a while since I've opened RPG Maker VX Ace, I hope I explained that well :O
Another note on the gameplay in itself, I definitely didn't expect combat for some reason, especially not classical JRPG type, but I liked it! The combat was kind of hard at first because I wasn't sure what to do but I quickly got the hang of it and I "only" died to the boss once :O It was pretty fun! It got me wondering what the different elements of magic for and if they will play a bigger part in the next games!
Anyway I hope you continue making games!! Best of luck <3
I totally forgot to put my video in the comment section here! Silly me. Good job putting in the effort to learn and make a game! Obviously there are some tweaks that could be made here and there (I left constructive criticism towards the end), but the concept is strong. Passion is a beautiful thing! Everyone starts somewhere, and knowledge is power. Keep at it! Maybe even turn this into a full game if you so choose :)
