Nightmares of Miracles

THIS GAME IS A WORK IN PROGRESS! MANY THINGS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY, SUCH AS COLLISION AND TILE LAYERING. YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE MANY MISTAKES.

Nightmares of Miracles, an RPG presented in charming pixel art and a top-down style, kicks off with a tranquil and cutesy atmosphere, featuring engaging dialogues that introduce the player to Mistwood, the protagonist's newfound town. Taking on the role of an office worker at G-Neric Corp, the main character befriends their co-workers, including the seemingly innocuous Veronica, who will later be unveiled as the unsuspected antagonist. Initially disguised as the protagonist's best friend, Veronica's true villainous nature emerges gradually as the days unfold, with subtle disturbances and distorted rooms, visible only to the player. Strange encounters with Veronica heighten the main character's suspicions, leading to a gripping narrative where the protagonist must gather evidence to expose Veronica's connection to the town's unsettling transformations. The climax unfolds as the player confronts Veronica, engaging in a thrilling boss battle to thwart her evil plans and save Mistwood from impending doom.

Credits:

Most of the pixel art is from https://limezu.itch.io/. Thank you so much for letting us use it, it has amazing assets! The only entirely original pixel art is the character sprites. We also edited a few things of Limezu's, but most of it is theirs!

The background music in the game is "elevator music" from Lesfm on pixabay.com.

Our logo was created by a friend, Noah Solomon. Thank you!

Lastly, we used Dialogic 2 to help us implement dialogue into the game! Their algorithms and plugin was particularly useful.

Special thanks to our professor, Cole Granof, for being so helpful during this process!
