About This Game "Just a Cleric" is my new retro-styled action RPG. Become the titular wussy cleric himself and set out to avenge your fallen comrades by attempting to do what no cleric before you has ever done: CLERIC DE COMMANDO. 'BUT DEL_DUIO!', you say, 'I CAN PLAY A QUADRILLION GAMES JUST LIKE YOURS, SO WHY SHOULD I??!!' My answer is simple: Can you play a quadrillion retro action RPGs? Of course, this isn't some weird sorta' jail! But can you play a quadrillion games like MINE? Hells no!! And here's why: ===============================JUST A CLERIC is more than the sum of its parts. ===============================To your average Joe you'll see: *Retro pixel graphics. (Well, at least he drew his own and didn't use Realm of the Mad God's graphics!) *Hub / town level -> Missions -> Get gear & rewards -> upgrade and buy stuff at the town -> repeat game progression. (MEH, but hey at least games like that are pretty fun.) *4 standard stats that you can boost however you see fit. (Oh boy, and I'll bet 3 of them suck!) *Many (many) different types of gear to find and upgrade. Normal upgrades go to +4, and then you can bless those +4 pieces at the church in exchange for money to get the best of the best. (Well I DO like Diablo...) *NG+ where a better loot pool opens up, new status ailments, enemies & enemy placement, and tougher bosses that gain additional abilities. That's one of the reasons why I think you NEED to beat the whole game once first as the NG+ portion holds some real challenge and of course better gear! (New Game plus?? Adds to replay value if nothing else, hmm..) *A game that looks like its budget was $40. (If that!) But to the AWESOME and MOST-EXCELLENT observer (P.S. Skippy, this is you): *Well-written dialogue (some of the writing is smart comedy IMO, even if it isn't going to win any awards lol) I can't tell you how many times I've played some AAA title and the story is just BORING AS ALL HELL. Damn, all those millions to make a game and nobody thought to hire a real writer? With JAC, I try to take what's a simple premise and make it interesting where I can. *Different music. I love chip tunes. I love making computerized music for games and have done so lots in the past. This time though, I wanted to try something different and put my other hobby to use which is playing / writing music. So with JAC, you'll get an OST full of guitars, bass, drums, and quasi-terrible singing. (Also I don't think anybody has used a rubber ducky in their game's soundtrack before now). *A hero who's a cleric. Aside from maybe an MMORPG and the old Hexen 64 game I can't think of any game that stars a cleric exclusively. Also it was a cool thing to be able to have access to prayers that you don't normally see in any action RPG like Raise Dead. *A game that has 4 standard stats however none of them suck! I know for me I hate playing some games where your character has 8 stats and 3 or 4 of them are trash nobody ever levels up. Because I personally hate when games do this, I CHANGED THE WAY WE'RE GOING TO FRIGGIN' DO THIS. In JAC, I made a special point so that each stat is immediately useful to the player in more than one way. You're welcome! *ENCUMBRANCE MAKES A TRIUMPHANT RETURN! Haha! When I used to play the old SSI D&D Goldbox games I remember that your gear load used to make you heavier and heavier and in turn you couldn't move as many squares on the battle map. Since you can't really do this in a platformer, I've come up with an interesting idea where your gear load determines how much damage you'll take from a big fall. It's equal to half of your total gear load. HUZZAH!*A funny intro and ending scene. You'll see! YOU'LL ALL SEEEEeeeeeee!!!!! (falls off a cliff) So is this the best game ever? Is this the best music ever? No, probably not.. But it's the best game ever made by a bass playin' weirdo I'll bet! P.S: And it WAS made on a budget of $40! Beat that, sweatshops of the world!! 7aa9394dea Title: Just a ClericGenre: Action, Indie, RPGDeveloper:DXF GamesPublisher:DXF GamesRelease Date: 19 May, 2016 Just A Cleric Download Direct Really a gret game. I play for the third time and have great fun. Tipp: You have to build your FAI (Faith) at least to 5. Otherwise you can wait very very very long till you are healed.... Great game, great and funny songs.Text is a little hard to see at first but you get used to it.Great fighting machanics and weapon system.Spells make the game a fun way to strategize around the enimies or to kill them. What is this I don't even. This game is FANTASTIC! if you like pixel games then I really RECOMMEND this game, advantages:1- Nice pixel design.2- A lot of weapons along the game.3- It has a lot of levels.4- No bugs even while it's indie game.5- A lot of unexpected and funny things happen.The only negative thing about this game is that you can't turn it to full screen from in-game settings, but you can easily do it using software called "Borderless Gaming" so it's not a problem at all.. Just absolutly awful, dont waste the 4 bucks on this garbage. First off developers your band sucks. The music doesnt fit the game and is dreadful. Second why would you use such a crappy♥♥♥♥♥font in the game. Not fun to play, Clunky controls.....blah blah blah, this game blows.. There's a trend amongst indy devs to go beyond just trying to make a game look pixel and old because they couldn't afford an artist, and making games look even more pixellated and low effort than even old games used to be - deliberately! This is one example of this new crime against gamers. Once you get past the horribly low effort graphics, the gameplay is very weak, something like Zeliard but made more annoying because of the poor graphics and somewhat clunky controls. To make matters worse, there's no even a readily available fullscreen option, no mouse support, and unintuitive controls.Clearly not made for PC gamers.. Old school game.but enjoyful.. Although this game can be fun, there are a lot of issues with the game that make it really frustrating. For one thing there are a few game ending glitches, which can get annoying because there's no auto save feature and there's some RNG elements in the game. Secondly, there's fall damage. Now I understand this could've been added to make the game harder, but the player should not get penalized for not wanting to go down a short ladder that takes time away. Thirdly, the weapons aren't that effective, I feel that no matter how much you level your character, some enemies are still difficult to attack. Other than these issues, the mission system is really good and the dialouge is really witty and clever. Also the music is really funny. I wouldn't not reccomend this game to someone, but I also wouldn't reccomend it at the same time. Price is very cheap though :). Simple but fun. Very interesting garage-influenced soundtrack.. A challenging and rewarding dungeon crawlerAt a glance this looks like just another indie pixel hack and slash game. It is far more refined than the fairly simple presentation suggests. You get a variety of your standard fantasy game weapons, swords, axes, etc, but every one plays decidedly differently. Arrows and wands are great for range, knives are weak but really quick, axes are really strong but slow and leave the unwitting open to attack, and so on.The game is punishing, especially on your first play through, but not in a remotely unfair way. The best games encourage you to get better, and this one does it. Level full of wizards one shoting you? Learn their patterns and hit them at openings. Dungeon full of spiders giving you trouble? Get a weapon with a wide upward range. Boss keeps wrecking you? Try the bow and tag him from a safe distance. And so on. Between a variety of weapons and armor that are all upgradeable, a level up system that makes tangible differences with every boost, and ever useful healing and stat boosting spells, you'll never find yourself too stuck. It's a game that rewards diligence with victories being rewarding.If you're a fan of old school style action platformers, you can't go wrong here.
