    Game Synopsis:


    Okiku, Star Apprentice is something of a departure for me. This game focuses on gameplay mechanics, most notibly the Wand of Blasting, and attempts to build a story around it. How well did I do? Play it and find out!


    Also, for a change of pace, the game's resources aren't all over the place! Outside of the faceset used for the title character (credit goes to Pink Elephant for the base material file), and the inclusion of songs from commercial games, pretty much everything else is pure VX Ace RTP! If any of this offends you, you'd best stay away from this game.

    Okiku has SKILLS that EVOLVE! She has STATS too, but, meh.

    Ha!  I beat it in an hour!  

    The gameplay is for the most part very basic RPG Maker stuff but I did enjoy your game nonetheless and played it all the way through to the end.  Well done!  :D

    Okiku_thoughtful.pngI didn't want this to be complicated...


    Okiku_happy.png...I just wanted it to be a BLAST to play! Which seems to be your case!


    Okiku_surprised.pngWhich somehow reminds me, I want to put up the both the links for the "full" version and RTP-reliant one!

    Okiku_normal.pngI heard through the grapevine...


    Okiku_sly.png*cough*Red_Nova*cough*


    Okiku_happy.png...that there was a livestream of this game done by HuntingSwan! I even managed to catch a few moments of it...


    Okiku_worried.png...before I totally chickened out.


    Okiku_annoyed.pngI know, I know. I'm a freaking wuss.


    Okiku_normal.pngAnyway, I couldn't help but to notice that HuntingSwan was at the Garuda fight, which is about half-way through. Also, I couldn't help but to notice some commentary on the side-bar in the video about how updating the evolution counter was an "easy fix".


    Okiku_thoughtful.pngI'm kinda hoping this solution was discussed, since it's not something I am particularly aware of! I'm aware that would mean watching the thing.


    Okiku_worried.pngEven for a game like this, it's going to be rough to watch a video.


    *Edit:


    Okiku_surprised.pngSorry about this formatting weirdness! I kinda thought the word-wrap included images...


    Okiku_annoyed.png...for whatever reason.

    Hey Marrend!  I think I was in a slightly grumpy mood that day and maybe was a little harsh but I hope you do watch it in the end!

    I'm sure I liked some stuff too!
