whoah, flash. don't see a lot of that around here.

the production value for this looks pretty intense, man. management sims aren't really my deal, but this definitely seems worth checking out. can you give us a little more detail, though? this is pretty sparse.

Well the whole point of the game is to meet the King's expectations (aka Fame) and complete the "Rune List" I'm not really sure what more details I can give since the game pretty much tells everything

Come to think of it, I didn't include the screenshot for battles =_=

Is the art original or is it borrowed from other resources? I was just curious.

I did all the character designs and drawings (and some of the quests and whatnot and some dialogue blabla, the game's logo) and Azrael did all the sprites and tilesets and etc.

The credits section says everything.

How are there very little posts in this, I tried the thing and played non-stop for two hours. Not a lot of flash games do that for me. This game's wonderful, I can totally imagine being hooked to this if it were on something portable like an NDS too.

Wow Im shocked by lack of comments. this is a gold mine! truly great art and idea. Hopefully will inspire others to broaden horizons.

Not bad. I tried it out and was impressed. Here's a couple cents' worth of critique.

-I found the 10gold name change rather pointless. Your students generally graduate pretty quickly, so it would take a lot of effort to change everyone's name. I just don't see this being used, especially as there's a price (albeit cheap) for it.

-Battles were definitely too repetitive. All it is is click, attack, click, move, click, attack. Now the coding wasn't bad (except for a glitch where characters kept getting stuck next to water), I would just add more player interactivity or give the option of skipping them if characters will obviously win.

-I would add a few more quests, as after awhile repeats continued to pop up. The current ones aren't bad; some are just unbalanced and give too little LP compared to others.

-I found (in my game, at least) the penalties weren't very negative. I always had enough gold to afford weaponry, students, etc. The only thing I was lacking was enough LP to raise more fame. I ended up buying and graduating off level 1 mages and warriors every 4th week just to get the extra 100 or so fame raises, though it soon became a chore. IMO the required fame is too steep later on, as I found myself making every other month.

Overall, good game. It had me hooked for a few hours. Just a few aforementioned points eventually made it too repetitive and monotonous, so I stopped around halfway through the 3rd year.
