YULETIDE

YULETIDE is an RPG inspired by the holiday season!

Instead of fighting, give monsters gifts to pacify them and make them your friends!

Legends speak of a land far to the north, uncharted by any map. A realm of ice and snow untouched by the hands of man. Folklore depicts the land in many lights, some speak of it as a haven of evil, others a miraculous paradise. Few really know its true nature, as those who travel there are never heard from again.

Undaunted by such prospects and with nothing else to lose, a vagrant child takes one final journey to the ends of the world.

Features:

• An adventure spanning up to 2 hours.
• A simple battle system that requires players to suss out what a monster desires and giving them a gift fitting that desire.
• A game world themed after winter holidays.
• A heaping load of awful, corny jokes and random references.
• A couple of the easiest puzzles known to man.
• Inspired by games like Earthbound and Undertale. (does this count as a feature?)
• Evil ugly Christmas sweaters!
• Eggnog!

YULETIDE was created during a month-long gamejam in late 2018. Since then, it has received a couple of minor updates to adjust gameplay and squash bugs. The game is still in a demo state and not a completed project.
