Part 2: In which goblins and ogres are pushed




Chapter 2: In which goblins and ogres are pushed


This is the overworld. Pretty spiffy, with some decent music.
Original, Arrange


These guys are ogres. Weakest enemy in the game. Now for battle mechanics!


Pushing these guys while off center, like this, will cause damage to them. Same if you attack them from the side.


This guy is a goblin. Stronger than an ogre, and if you hit them head on, whoever has more strength wins. However, you take double if you're standing still.


Jamming them up against a tree and running through them, however, is incredibly effective.


Standing still (while in the field outside, anyway) will slowly regenerate your HP. However.....


Getting hit in the back while standing still gives the monsters a quadruple damage bonus.


After gaining two levels and quite a bit of gold, it's time to head back.


Why hello there, armor shop!


Why yes I would like the most affordable shield! Now Sara has to bang me.


Included with every full set of armor is a nice sprite touchup.


Back to the bitch's house.


Uh. Kay. Wait, what if I had said no?


Say yes, and she gives you the crystal, which is needed for her aunt to give you a key later, and to get into a shrine. So you have to choose both options. Fucking. Retarded.


Anyway, off to Zepic!
