I took one look at the title screen and said,"This game has promise!"This is the only RPG title in a long while that shows even a spec of promise. The details in the houses are very good, the animation is good, and the RPG battles aren't just a bucnh of character two's walking around with backslashes for swords. The story line is mediocre though.

Overall: 3.5 Plot: 2/5 Graphics: 4.5/5 Sound: 3/5

This is the "cutest" title out there right now and it's just a demo. (I liked the chef portrait) Keep it up Mr. Smith. I smell a MTP coming on.

I like this. I really really do. A cute, very well-detailed little adventure based around a chap named Arc, who must make it to work on time. The story isn't very well developed as of yet, but I can't blame Mr. Smith for that, as this is quite a short little demo.

The graphics are very interesting. They're simplistic, yet also quite detailed at the same time, which works quite well. All the rooms are small, and centred in a blue box. I was making a game in this style, once. But now I can't. So poop. But in all seriousness, the technique is pulled off rather nicely, and since I'm never going to make a ZZT game again, cheers to Mr. Smith for pulling it off.

There's little aesthetics, but what there is, is quite well done. The RPG battle engine is simplistic, but it works, and that's pretty much what matters. Battle graphics are very pretty, as well.

The writing...however...is absolute shite. Mr. Smith's attempt to create a comedic RPG has been stifled by the fact that his sense of humour is nonexistant. And it really gets on my tits.

Anyway, the game shows promise, keep it up, I suppose!
