What a fun fusion! It would be nice to know what portion of the outfit was going to be dyed by the color potion, but aside from that this seems fully realized. Nice work!

Good job! I really liked the idea and the art. But it took a while to understand how things work. Congratulations for the game!

I love the concept. Simple but fun to play

Very cute and creative game. Took me a few minutes to catch on and stop tunnel-visioning the combat, but great when I did. Loved the art, too.

Lovely artwork!

This was very cute, it took me a couple tries but I liked the attempt to maintain the health and the dress at the same time. I do think there are a few off by one errors possibly in your health code, because every once in a while a character died that I wasn't expecting to. Still, very fun game!

The little guys were adorable. I was so impressed I looked at all of your portfolios! The game flow was kinda slow with the actions costing health, but I understand that it would have otherwise been too easy. Good job on the programming, I didn't encounter any bug (except calling the health mana when there's not enough of it?)

Have yet to see a dress-up game, and it's really well done with the battle system. It was quite fun, I really enjoyed this! :)

Interesting concept! Though I found the game way too easy and it ended very soon. I think this game would benefit from having levels. What you have right now is nice for level 1, but I think it should be more challenging over time and perphaps you could add more features every level. Think about it if you ever want to expand your game 😃 Overall, you guys did a pretty good job!

This was a fantastic original idea! I had a ton of fun playing this, and I'm not really a fan of either genre. The dialogue was concise and well-written, I could feel character personality oozing out of each sprite. Overall, fantastic job!

This was very delightful concept. Only note was that I was a bit confused on the mana system.

I tried to play the game but of some reason none of the gui would show up. I managed to get through title screen clicking randomly where i thought the start button would be. Then I managed to do about 2 rounds of fight/ dress up which was really nice, but again I had no idea what I was doing just clicking empty spaces of background to make characters do something. The idea is really interesting, even without gui I could tell that this idea has quite the potential. Although I'd like to experience the game with no bugs, I dunno why none of the texts wouldn't show up

Beautiful and unique game! I like the themes you used and combined

bobo-games 2018-04-25 18:05

Thanks everyone so much for all your comments so far!! And thanks for playing!! :)

@Redhatto That's so strange! What operating system and what browser were you playing on?

@Solange Yes!! That would be so fun to add!

lereveur 2018-04-25 22:06

This was really fun to play. And unexpectedly challenging. I manage to win, and it was not as simple as I expected. Thank you for that game, and well done! :smiley:

The artwork was amazing and the audio you chose fit the whole thing well. I thought it was rather funny that I could cut Cinderellas hair and put on makeup and gloves and have her ready to go to the ball in her underwear. :smile:

Maybe if instead of each action adding to the bar you would have doing the same action over and over again give diminishing returns. I just had two of the mice alternate eating cheese and distracting the cat while the other one just repeatedly changed her shoes or whatever.

@Redhatto has the same issue I do (I'll hold off on rating your game until I can play it how it's supposed to be played).

While it may be impossible to get your HTML5 game to run for every machine (for context: I have a windows 7 laptop that's a corporate computer with a firewall that can dramatically slow down content. Also, I played in Chrome because it refuses to load in IE or Firefox for me). If you're interested in what it looks like from that view, I took a screenshot

The art is super cute, and I can't wait to play it how it's meant to be!

bobo-games 2018-04-27 18:23

@Deprecat how bizarre! I have no idea what's causing that -- I'm also on Windows and use Chrome. Hmm.. Not sure if this will help, but I uploaded a Windows .exe that you could try out, since I have no idea where to begin with fixing the HTML5 problem. @Redhatto maybe this will help you too?

How can you not click this game? The concept is so enticing. Tbh, compared to a normal jrpg I found the Outfit Readiness meter more compelling than bringing down hp meters for whatever reason. Maybe it was the novelty, not sure. In the end the additional feedback you get from watching the outfit grow and complete itself really drew me into the game and made me want to see what the final product was. Great game elements to keep the player interested, awesome idea!

macdoom 2018-05-06 20:24

Cute Game! The theme was really well implemented! The only thing I could recommend you to enhance it is to exclude the parts of the dress that are already on Cinderella and in good shape. That way the player must form a strategy. Just putting several times the dress parts that added the most points led me to an easy (but uncompleted dress) win. Congratulations! There's much future in this poriginal combination. Haven't seen anything like this.

Come and try mine! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/tactical-hydra
