Incremental Town RPG

Nice little incremental game made from a solo dev which is very responsive and active. Got quick help via discord from him about an achievement. 100% completion is quite easy. Recommended!

[h1]미완성[/h1] 그래픽이 괜찮아 보여서 구매했는데 게임 내적으로 문제가 좀 많습니다. 우선, 이 게임에서 물건을 판매해 얻는 코인은 사용할 곳이 마땅치 않습니다. 코인을 사용할 수 있는 곳은 오로지 노동자를 구매하는 것뿐입니다. 하지만 각 건물마다 노동자는 최대 4명까지만 배치할 수 있으며, 용병으로 만들어 전투력을 올리거나 다시 팔아 추가 코인을 얻을 수도 있지만, 중반부부터 코인이 넘쳐나기 시작하면서 사실상 의미가 없어집니다. 또한, 물건을 얻는 건물을 업그레이드하려면 해당 물건이 필요합니다. 그렇다면 물건을 팔아 코인을 얻는 이유가 무엇일까요? 일반적으로는 재료를 팔아 코인을 확보하고, 그 코인을 바탕으로 업그레이드를 진행하는 방식이 익숙한데, 이 게임에서는 재료 자체가 업그레이드 비용이기 때문에 코인의 가치가 떨어집니다. 재료 생산 시스템도 문제점이 많습니다. 어떤 재료는 클릭으로 획득할 수 있고, 어떤 재료는 노동자를 배치하면 자동으로 획득할 수 있습니다. 그런데 일부 재료는 노동자를 배치하는 방식이 기존과 달라, 건물을 누른 상태에서 배치하는 것이 아니라 직접 건물 내부로 들어가 + 버튼을 눌러야 합니다. 반면, 또 어떤 재료는 노동자를 통한 자동화 단축이 불가능하고, 클릭을 통한 수동 생산도 지원되지 않으며, 아주 단순한 자동화만 적용됩니다. 같은 ‘재료 생산’ 시스템인데도 방식이 제각각이라 가독성이 떨어지고, 불필요한 번거로움을 유발합니다. 비행선을 만들기 위해서는 철주괴 500개와 금주괴 200개가 필요합니다. 그런데 주괴를 생산하는 대장간은 노동자를 배치해 생산 속도를 단축할 수도 없고, 재료를 통해 업그레이드하는 것도 불가능합니다. 어떤 주괴든 간에 무조건 5초에 1개씩 생산된다는 점을 고려하면, 철주괴 500개와 금주괴 200개의 차이를 두는 것도 이해하기 어렵습니다. 원재료인 철광석과 금광석의 차이를 반영한 것일 수도 있지만, 어차피 주괴 생산 속도가 동일하기 때문에 의미가 없습니다. 갑자기 엔드급 건물에 이런 제한을 둔 것은 단순히 플레이타임을 늘리려는 의도로밖에 보이지 않습니다. 게임 초반부터 시간 단축이 기본 시스템처럼 적용되다가, 마지막에서야 갑자기 속도를 제한하는 것은 일관성이 부족해 보입니다. 최적화 문제도 있습니다. 튕기는 것은 아니지만, 이동할 때 가끔 끊기고, 업그레이드를 할 때도 자주 먹통이 됩니다. 후반부쯤 되면 게임이 거의 3초마다 한 번씩 멈추는 현상이 발생합니다. 그래픽이 특별히 뛰어난 것도 아니고, 화면에 표시되는 수치가 어마어마하게 높은 것도 아닌데, 렉이 자주 걸리는 것은 분명한 문제입니다. 게임을 꺼도 진행이 되지 않는것은 요즘 방치형 게임에서도 흔한 문제라 넘어갈 수 있지만, 게임을 껐다 켜면 트레이더 설정이 초기화되는 것은 불편한 요소입니다. 특히, 렉 때문에 게임을 자주 껐다 켜야 하는 상황인데, 그때마다 설정이 초기화되니 플레이하기가 더욱 불편합니다. 퀘스트 보드는 끄는 기능이 없으며, 모든 퀘스트를 클리어해도 사라지지 않습니다. 마을 중앙의 까마귀가 팁을 제공하는 시스템은 나쁘지 않지만, 이미 팁 게시판이 따로 존재하는데도 불구하고 계속 화면에 나타나니 정신이 사납고, 정작 내용을 제대로 읽게 되지도 않습니다. 결론적으로 그래픽만 좋은 허울뿐인 게임이지만, 그나마 다행인 점은 디스코드나 인게임 내에서 피드백을 보낼 수 있을 정도로 개발자가 소통에 진심이라는 것입니다. 하지만 아직은 추천하기 어렵습니다.

yeah idk i wanna like it but its legit like different devs took over design randomly and none of them finished anything.. the upgrade system starts with some nice symbols above the work place to click, nice and simple. but after you literally unlock 2 other stages they kind get bored of that mechanic and decide the rest of the buildings from now on dont need that easy icon to click/know you are ready to upgrade, now you gotta go find the item in a list through another menu to upgrade them just the same.. next they got really bored and made the end game buildings "just do multiple things" and this works very poorly with the "add more workers to speed things up" model as they dont effect anything other than the first option in a building producing say 5 things (mill or cooking place) well as far as i can tell anyway.. the items have no useable tool tips that i can see other than telling you their name (ok i got "bottle" wtf do i need to do with that lol), theres a "battle system" that consists of you fighting guys for literally 1 type of resource regardless who you fight and a seemingly random battle map where 3 fights are fight-able even tho theres like 20 spots on the map (very confusing) and finally is the trade in this game, for some reason theres two different spots to sell the same things both of which reset every single time you reload the game so yo uhave to set the trades every time and it bugs out, very often i have trained 10 guys to sell at 130 each for example and some how i end up with a. the same amount of money back b. less money or c. a random number between that deff isnt the correct amount. so yeah over all its a cool concept but it needs alot of cleaning up and work to make it more uniform and less makeshift and like random ppl worked on it at different times and i highly doubt thats gunna happen sadly

This game is a bit clunky and rough around the edges. The UI is a damn mess and there are a lot of weird choices. I play a lot of trashy idle games so I don't really mind and I was willing to forgive this until I reached the late game. There, it all turned to sh*t. You're gated by gold and silver bars to produce the last tiers of units and there is no way to make their progression faster (everything else in the game can be boosted). Worse, you need to produce two type of items with these gold bars so you can't automate both at once because one requires less gold bars than the other, so you'll end up only producing the former. This is a major design flaw that absolutely ruins the pace of the game at this point. This could have been a nice and quick, chilling idle game but this massive issue just around doubles the waiting time for absolutely no valid reason and makes finishing it a chore instead of an enjoyable experience. I can't recommend this game unless you're really craving for an idle game revolving around town management.

First impressions doesn't deliver for me. Countless noticeable issues and the gameplay didn't hook me in. The game needs quite a lot of QoL. [list] [*] Majority of the grammar is off and lacks punctuation. [*] Cannot turn off tips from the crow. [*] Shift does not increase the camera speed. [*] Cannot lower FPS. I don't need 120FPS for any idler. This is a big issue because I'd want the game to use less resources, not more. [*] All Scroll Bars scroll sensitivity is set very low. The Content of all scroll bars do not have a content size fitter; what that means is, there's a lot of empty space and you can scroll down the entire value of the scroll bar. [/list]

Edit: Okay the previously mentioned bugs are fixed. But the broken gameplay is only solved by what seems a new bug: Send in 2 for 200g workers to the barrack, and up with only 1 recruit resulting in 130g... Gameplay: Bad and unbalanced resulting in this broken gameplayloop: As soon as you unlock the barracks and the tradehouse, you can simply buy some citizens, train them to recruits and then sell them again. rinse and repeat Untill you have >50 of them, kill kraken to get bones. sell bones to get prestige currency. repeat untill you are bored and unlock all prestige without ever bothering with any of the other buildings and bosses. Also, the prestige bonuses are meh and don't accelerate your next playtrough much (except when you get duplicate privates, highly improving the above mentioned strategy). 2x wood may seem cool but considering you can only put a limited amount of workers on making planks out of them, it really does not help at all. I mean, the good thing that had me going for a few hours

Incremental Town RPG is a fun and relaxing incremental idle game, perfect for casual background gaming. It was created by an indie developer, and it's always great to support small developers making creative and enjoyable games. This one shines with its charming pixel graphics, simplicity, and satisfying progression system. The grind feels well-balanced for this type of game, and I managed to achieve 100% of all achievements in about 25.5 hours of active gaming and idling. If you’re a fan of incremental games with a laid-back vibe, I highly recommend trying this one!

There's some jankiness to the game in the controls, the ux/ui and just how it feels in general, but I am enjoying it as an idle game that you can come back to anytime you want with no repercussions. I haven't prestiged yet but I assume that's going to make the game WAY longer than I would've thought. Finished? No Steam Achievements? A lot of grinding, will take a LONG while. Steam Deck? N/A for idle game. Rating? 6/10 My curator page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45865425-CozyAriGames/ Full videos on Youtube.

chill lil game. Despite being a incremental game there is a bunch of bottle necking issues u have to deal with thanks to how some of the resources scales or should I i say the lack of scaling for some of the resources. Manage to finish the achievements in about 7 ish hours. So the time investment is not too bad.

Very rough, unbalanced, ugly, awkwardly designed game. Should be free on itch not paid on Steam. Dev should absolutely be still working on this game to improve it if they want to charge money for it.
