Part 1: The Test

Update 1 - The Test



MUSIC: Falling Stars





Welcome to Wandersong! A game I discovered thanks to a friend's recommendation, and gift. I felt like I had a special enough of a time to want to share it with others. Which leads to this LP!



MUSIC: The Sword





So starting off, we're this Bard! He even looks like ye olde medieval bard a bit huh? We seem to be having a dream at this moment, as we went from the main menu straight to here!





Moving is pretty basic on PC. WASD to move, space to jump. I don't know for sure what the controls are like on the switch, but I assume "standard controls" would be a safe bet.







We continue moving upwards and over these ledges. We still aren't sure what we're looking for, but we hope to find it soon!





Oooh, that's probably it!







Alright! Our first weapon!





As the on screen prompt shows, you wield the sword with with the left mouse button. You want to use this to tear down any monster that gets in your way!





After pressing the left mouse button, we can choose the direction we want to wield the sword in. It's somewhat clumsy, but becomes good fun as you have to stab bats in the mid-air while still watching out for goblins on the ground.







Our... hero... is having trouble wielding the sword right now. That's ok! That's just because we haven't grinded enough resources to create a strength potion and increase our muscle density.







Regardless, our hero marches forward to fight the foul beasts of the land!







Wow! This is... uh a big one! Ok Bard, show em what you got! You can do this!













...Uh oh...





Without our sword we can't fight back!! The only thing we can do is sing at her! We are a bard after all...





It seems to be working?










MUSIC: Mysterious Rainbow Girl




You are SO CUTE!!! I'm sorry for scarin you. This was supposed to test if you were a hero... which you're not.


So yeah, we aren't actually the hero who's going to go off and fight some adventure across time, or worlds. We're just a bard who likes singing!


Just a bard! Who are you?

Messenger of the goddess Eya. Forever ago, her song of creation set your universe into motion. And she's gonna sing her song again pretty soon. Which, um... is gonna replace this universe with a new one.




Uh, end of the universe you say?


But don't freak out about it too much, your universe is pretty old. She likes to start over fresh after a while, y'know?




She's acting as if she's getting a new car, or a new appliance! This is the whole universe you're talking about!




This sucks actually. I really like you










And so ends the prologue... with us being told the whole universe is about to stop being a thing! Welp, I hope that hero comes along and solves this for us!
