MOTH
A downloadable game for Windows
The moth king went mad and left his own kingdom to rot. Now, the once great land of the Moth is a ruin left for you to explore.
This rpg maker game takes some gimmick of the metroidvania genre - exploration of an interconnected world and the use of some capacities scattered in the world needed to progress - in a 2d-platformer style inspired by game like LISA, OFF or Orompaquenga.
My plans for this game are more "modest" than my other - mostly unfinished, lol - projects. I'll try to make it from the beginning to the end fast and then add more optional contents whenever I feel like it.
For now, the available demo let you explore four areas and fight four bosses.
The game is finished and contained multiple bosses, characters and two endings for you to choose.
I hope you will enjoy the game, I really like working on it right now, hope this will stay like this for a while !

I got the succession ending, but I couldn’t figure out how to use the white pearl
Yeah, you actually don't have to use the white pearl. Now that you have it, you can go back to where you fought the moth king, this is where it has an effect automatically. I'll probably change the item's description to make it more clear
i downloaded this first demo and i really really enjoyed it! i haven't finished it, pretty sure, but i really like the pixel art and the vibes this game has already
it's not particularly difficult, but certainly tense and challenging
i'd love to see you finish it eventually, it's looking great
Thanks for the comment, it means a lot !
Yeah, the game will probably be really hard, because I'm not that good myself at RPG lmao, but it will get harder in the other areas I think.
I've been working on it almost everyday for a week and a half now, I hope to keep it going at that speed to propose a new demo soon !
nice! :3c
