Jrpg Download

I have created a few assistant image pack then came the idea, that how funny it would be if the box could show the conversation in jrpg style? So I digged around a bit in the original firmware, and added parts where necessary and it came out like this:
JRPG is a kanji learning game styled after the classic SNES RPG games (like Final Fantasy 6, or Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past). The game tries to help you learn how to readand understand kanji in context, and in doing that it also helps you improve your Japanese vocabulary. You can also use it to refresh your kana.
Depending on the location and how well were you dealing withthe past demons, the enemies will be easier or more difficult.If you slay hard demons left and right, the game tries to attack youwith even harder demons, so you shouldn't be bored for too long.On the other hand if you have problems with the current enemies,the game will be increasing difficulty level only slowly.
Demons containing more than one different kanji come in many versions.You will meet easy versions first, that is - with harder kanji given with furigana.Once you defeat the easy version a few times, and the harder version at least once,easy version won't attack you any more.
Difficulty of demons depends on location and on your results.If the game is too difficult stay on early locations longer.If it's too easy, quickly finish them and go to the depths of the dungeon - third level of the dungeon is the most difficult.Even if you stay in one location the demons will gradually become more difficult as you defeat the easy ones.
The game logs all mistakes you make to files mistakes-.txt.You can review them after you finish playing and you have some time to check a dictionary.If you're not interested in this information, you can safely delete these files.
If you want don't have Python and Pygame installed yet, you can download them from:
- Python website
- Pygame website
If you have any problems with jrpg, please mail me.Most of reported problems are fixed very quickly.Don't panic
- If you die, you will be teleported to the hospital
- There's only one save slot, but if you accidentally (detected by current XP beinglower than XP in the save file) press F2 instead of F4 when you start the game,you will be asked for confirmation, so the chance for accidentally overwriting the savefile is low.The game also tries to protect you agains accidental loads and exits.
