I’ve been testing your update since you released the demo, trying to purposely find glitches and bugs in the new battle system… and I couldn’t find any so far. I did find a few details that I wasn’t sure about though that I want to ask about.
Firstly, I noticed you can’t use a potion to heal a KO’d party member during battle, but outside of battle you can. I don’t know if that is intentional but it seemed a bit weird that you can use potions on KO’d party members at all since most rpgs require you to revive a fallen ally first before you can heal them.
And the second thing I noticed was that I don’t quite understand the ‘Berserk’ skill you’ve demonstrated. Specifically why it says ‘X-hp, X-mp’ even though it costs nothing? What does the HP,MP cost mean then?
Lastly, is it intentional that when you level up, your max hp raises but not your current? I just thought it was strange when my team all had 100% hp, levelled up, then they all had HP missing because it didn’t rise with the max.
The new moves system is interesting. The whole up-gradable abilities is something I never even considered. Well done for getting so much out so quickly, and all in working order too!

Hey Malibu Lizard,

1. You shouldn’t be able to heal KO’d members using potions, most likely a little bug slipped in. Will fix it.
2. I reckon I just missed to hook up ReduceHP and/or ReduceMP function when Moves are used. Will take a look at it and fix asap. (Berserk skill itself just changes a boolean variable in CharacterBattleStats, while it is true, characters basic attacks deal more damage)
3. I didn’t think about it, but it makes sense to “heal” character up for the amount the maximum HP/MP increased, especially when leveled up. Will add a little function to change it.

Thanks again for the feedback!
