Hello, welcome to the playtest of my KBMS fan game.
This is mostly an experiment to see if the game is processed correctly and also to share the fun things going on with it as it's being created!
Would you like to know about the game before you play it?
In this game, you will be playing as Mithrun's little helper to assist in making good choices. One thing I want to stress: You do Not Control Mithrun's character. You provide input, but he has the ability to either listen to you, ignore you, etc for your choices. When creating this game, I wanted to give Mithrun autonomy and not just have him be a reader-insert, nor did I want to take away the abilities he has to choose.
However, depending on your choices, he can gain either Inspiration Points or Distrust Points. Inspiration Points mean he is more likely to listen to your advice in the future; on the other hand, if he distrusts your judgement, he will become depressed or stop listening to you as much, even at his own detriment.
Not only do these points lead to separate endings, but your decisions impact your gameplay as you play it. Throughout the game, Mithrun's view of the world is, for the most part, basic doodles, almost childlike (inspired from the doppelganger incident). The more inspiration Mithrun gets, the more hope he has, and the more he takes in the world around him. If you do well by him, the art of the game steadily gets better in quality XD
If you have any questions, feedback, or whatever else, don't feel shy: I would like to keep improving this game. I might have small installments able to be played in the future, but here is a sneak peak at the beginning and play-style. Thank you.
