A short RPG story inspired in old-school RPGs like Earthbound, Golden Sun and Pokémon. This is my first pico-8 game, hope you like it!

Find patch log for v1.1 at the end of the description.

Controls:

Arrows: Move player - Move cursor
X: Interact - Select
Z: Open menu - Go back in menu - Close menu

Premise:

You are Rio, born with the monster eye, a special ability that allows you to learn the abilities of your opponents in battle. You must stop the never ending winter by defeating the evil idols that reside in the mountain. To do so, you will need to learn abilities, level up your stats, and re-spec your stats accordingly based on the enemies you encounter.

Battle reference:

There are three main stats:

ATK (Attack): Some abilities scale damage based on your ATK stat
AGI (Agility): The chance to dodge an attack, caps at 6
DEF (Defense): Each defense point will decrease damage by 1 in most cases, but damaging abilities that hit will always do a minimum of 1 damage

The menus will allow you to change abilities. In the menu, you will be able to read an ability's explanation, it will aid you to defeat the idols.

I hope you enjoy my little game, love the pico-8 community, be safe, and thanks for stopping by!
