A In-Game shot (seems not available in Demo Version)


Just came cross EasyGameStation and I noticed they released a new title, this one is really nice(This title is in Japanese).Should be released in middle August.

And a second thought, Japanese indie game have pretty high programming skill and nice art/music team, which made the final product(the game) very playable...

The trial is on the above link, as you need at least a few Japanese skill to play it.

This looks pretty good. Is it an RPG action game?

Yeh, that screenshot looks quite nice.

Its pretty cool game...too bad its in japaneese....I had no idea what the hell i was doing but it was fun. I like the concept of using 2D sprites in 3D enviroment. Kinda reminded me of the Zelda games for the N64...

Yeah, I only wish that games in this country could compete. Maybe someone here may have some ideas? Hopefully someone'll translate this game for the Western world...

how do you know it's an indie game ?

You can get some basic info from this site:

Some circle(aka small team/personal) here is pretty cool, and you should be able to preview about Japanese Indie Scene.

Man this game is pretty rad. I wish I could read Japanese. I got the cave open by kind of thinking of typical gameplay stuff to do while the fairy was trying to train me. I think I didn't save my game though. Is save Yes on the left or right side on the inventory screen when you choose the bottome option. I'm guessing it's there anyway.
