The game is called 'Rock, Paper, RPG', try it out and tell me what you think about it: @AldianSolkai
The controls are 'Z' and the arrow keys. Hold 'X' to speed up the text. 'M' to mute.
Basically it's a Rock, Paper, Scissors game with a simple HP and Leveling system. The rules are as follows: -Normal attacks hit before magic can be cast. -Blocking an attack allows you to counter back. -Magic can break through any defenses if not interrupted.
Changelog: -29/04: Fixed bug where pressing X during the title screen, made the game crash.
I love this. It's rather fun. The graphics are beautiful. The gameplay, simple to learn and hard to master. The audio, fitting. Essentially, this game is excellent.
I loved it!!!! The ONLY thing I could think to do is make the text scroll faster so it moves along a lil quicker, but it's really a lot of fun and a fantastic twist on Rock Paper Scissors!! Also absolutely love the graphics and game size, retro-glory!

Really minimal and pretty, fitting great to the theme. Loved it! :)
Definitely has that minimalistic feel to it. The graphics fit nicely! Would be nice to be able to speed up the text though. Overall I enjoyed playing this game.
Cute little game. Very random, of course, but I liked the monochrome palette and tiny window. I thought the sound effects were a little bit too loud compared to the music. Good job!
A wonderfully simple and fast-paced game of R,P,S. While maybe some things could be added, it has a good amount of charm and is executed nicely. A great take on the minimalism theme.
No but really, the pacing was a little too slow. I get that you're trying to emulate the old consoles, but I don't know. Audio was good, that's for sure.
I liked the spin on Rock, Paper, Scissors but in the end playing this sort of game against a computer just comes down to luck which I wasn't a big fan of. Still, I think this game is pretty charming and I liked the feel of it.

I love the retro-look (but the font is too thin to fit the rest of the pixel-art)! And imho the text doesn't scroll faster enough.
Nice twist on usual rock paper scissors! I liked the graphics and minimal looks. The game itself, being a rock paper scissors, is pretty luck based though. And how fun that is is debatable.
I like the presentation a lot. The tiny window is cool. It'd be great if you could skip the text animation by tapping any key. It'd be cool to have a two player option too. Beautiful music. The only part I did not like was waiting for the text (even sped up) to continue on to the next move.
It is a good way to do combat in an RPG and could definitely be used in a larger scale RPG.

Btw, the game crashes if you press 'X' during the title screen scrolling.
There's any logic or pattern on the enemy's choices? They always guessed mine :(

Well done.
This is the game with the smallest window that I rated so far :)
