So ButaVX: Justice Fighter is launched and can be downloaded on its site. If you have any comments or get stuck in the game please post your questions here ;)

It was really impressive. I am amazed by the intro, the amount of cute little cut scene. Everything is so polished and well presented. I really like the idea of fighting "objects", and almost everything in this game just oozes the word cute! The only downside is that it is ridiculously short. I was surprised when I won lol No wonder there isn't a save button (Or is there?)

P.S I also make games and most people said about my games being short despite the amount of effort and time I put into. So I can understand the difficulty in making a longer game. So don't consider my comment in negative light. It's more along the line of "it's too awesome, I want more!" :D

Thanks for the comments :) it's nice to hear you liked it - and sorry it's not a bit longer.

It doesn't have a "save" button - at one point we even considered implementing it but for a game this "long" there's probably no need for it. The whole experience was meant to resemble the reading of a comicbook on a train ride where you just flip through the pages and throw it in the bin afterwards...

btw which ending did you get?

There are different endings? :shock:
Cool! I will play the game again and check it out! :D

The ending I got is Buta got his soccer ball. How many endings are there?

And I am not throwing this to the bin. It's a crime to throw something this cute away! I am keeping it for good! XD

Endings:

There are two endings based on whether you beat the granny in the last fight. To get the "stockbroker" ending just let the granny beat ButaVX.

Ouch! That's what I figured! I have some questions on "how to lose"
What does Intimidate, Inspire and wordbomb do? I am quite confused to what they actually do.
I actually tried to not hitting Grandma, but I still ended up winning >_<'''

Btw, some stuff I wish there is in the game is an option to run away from battle. I anyhow play the game and yet I feel I am still to strong coz the granny died in a turn lol

This is a very cute game, and I had a lot of fun playing it. The battles were fun, the art was whimsical, and I especially love the journal. It's nice to see the world through the eyes of a young adventurer. I felt kinda guilty when I beat the granny. ^_^;; Next time, I'm aiming for the alternate ending. XD

To see a short reminder of what Wordbomb etc do, just press space during the battle - more indepth:

Intimidate - lowers enemy stat
Inspire - rises ButaVX's attack stat
Wordbomb - has a chance of killing everything onscreen depending on ButaVX's attack (and some other) stats. The policeman in the closed courtyard actually gives you a mystical hint about this at one point I think? Not sure but in any case that's how it works.

Maybe this should have been in the readme file after all :lol:

So if you don't want to hit the granny, just get inspired and inspired...

Think of ButaVX's feelings! I mean, not returning the ball... that's just wrong XD
