Gaia's Branch

In the local small town Erik is traveling through, he gets a dream of the nearby mountain exploding from the release of an ancient evil.  Will he stay and save the town or get out with his life?

This is my first (and likely only) RPG maker project.  I had 2 goals with this in mind:

1.  I wanted to see how many endings I could put into a game.  I was able to put in about 15 different endings, not including the standard, "You died in combat" end.

2.  I wanted to demonstrate how to make a perfectly playable full game in about 8-12 "days" of work so my kids could see it's possible.  So every Friday I put in a good 4-6 hours from March to April with a few extra days here and there.  I put less time into this than playing a lot of games, so it's possible. :)

Features:

* The game is as long or as short as you want it to be.  You can figure out the "best" ending (2 hours) or leave town as soon as you start (2 minutes.)

* There can be up to 3 different characters you get to manage in your party.  They react to each other and NPCs, and you get different reactions and endings based on who's present and their character "growth".  However, you can beat the game with Erik, the starting character alone.

* A light RPG system that's part of the puzzle of getting different endings and mandatory for the solo ending.  More power is easily obtainable without any combat, though.

Warning:  There is no new art, it's all from the "default" art set that comes with RPGMaker MV.

Enjoy!
