Our new RPG, Cosmic Star Heroine, is out! You can find it on Steam here. Cosmic Star Heroine is quite a bit more ambitious than our past games. Gorgeous pixel art, an incredible soundtrack, a brand new turn-based combat system, fun characters, and more await! If you enjoyed Breath of Death VII, we're sure you'll love it!

Breath of Death VII is a nice short game with a funny story but tends to get boring fast due to the same mechanics being repeated over and over. It can be fun to give it a try over the weekend as it is fairly short, however I would have enjoyed it more if they would have fleshed out the rpg mechanics a bit more and added a bit more detail. The soundtrack and story are OK with small references and Easter eggs here...

Game speed is way too high and figuring out how to fix that is too much effort for what this game is.

Pretty fun little RPG, quite short with a few balancing issues but has lots of interesting takes on classic JRPG mechanics

Very quaint when you compare it to the abundance of incredibly high-quality throwback JRPGs we have now. Full of humor and references that have not aged particularly well, technically simplistic, repetitive in places... ...But damn if it doesn't have charm to spare. It's hard to convey how cool this was on Xbox 360 in 2010, when we had only just started to get "real" games from indie studios, games that could...

Fun to waste some time on steam deck on the roadtrip in the car. Very simple, a bit outdated 2010's meta humour. Decent progression system. Considering it often is on sale below €1 I'd pick it up.

A short and fun parody of older turn-based RPGs while still managing to have fun and interesting gameplay. Cheap by default and even cheaper when on sale, It's well worth picking up.

played about 8 minutes 8 years ago and figured I might play the rest of it BUT it doesn't really work with modern computers. To make it even run you have to enable some legacy media features and even then from what I read in the discussions, it seems like it doesn't work that well once it's running. No idea if it's good or not since I obviously didn't play it but probably not a great 2026 purchase. Either way, I'm...

It's enjoyable for what it is: an extremely linear, quick homage/parody to NES JRPGs. It lightens the grinding, gets straight to the point, and has a little humor along the way. I enjoyed the 4th wall breaks, but it's nowhere near as good as its followup, Cthulhu Saves the World. Good for the money (it's frequently on sale for under a dollar).
