Now for something completely new! If you click onto the "Fight!!" entry in the navigation menu, you will switch over to our very first "game" (take that term with a truckload of salt): "Fight!!".
It is a very simple, very short and presumably easy turn based fight engine where you can do some battles with your character.
I had this idea for that game for quite some time now. If you're visiting rpg-o-mania, you're probably interested in old turn-based RPGs. And most modern engines in various games are so overly complex.
Not "Fight!!". Attack, use magic, that's it. No criticial attacks, no potions, no complex mechanics, just you, some enemies, and experience points. Go from battle to battle, and with every Level your stats will be restored.
If you have any questions, feel free to get in contact using the "Interact" contact form.
I will expand the number of enemies from time to time. The ones that are in the first batch are enemies I designed when I was 13. So that's kind of a throwback too :D
And disclaimer: For the cover art shown here, I used generative AI. I wanted to have an 80s style inspired cover art. But all the artwork of characters and monsters has been done by me!
I also opted for a hand-drawn look instead of pixels.

Some bad games can have good art too, right?
The game we're covering today isn't necessarily bad, but it has some uncanny predatory mechanics woven into it.
Anyway, it's about War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, and it has some nice artworks from various games.
So now it has its own gallery.
Compared to other gallerys on the web, I removed the shadow on the feet for every image.

Happy new year! Sort of... belated.
No new content yet, but I sat down with my trusty IDE to implement some new features.
First of all: Public comments! We're starting this out in the "Interact" page, but I plan to roll them out on every subsite here.
If you want to see the public comments we received so far, you can watch them here:
If you write a comment there, I can decide to release it. If you want to send me some thing in confidence, I won't publish the comments. I have to check every single one :)
Other than that, our galleries received a slight overhaul where they also display the date of the respective file now.
