Post Thoughts
Theme of Surprise was quite difficult to achieve. I think the entire game's story encapsulates a surprise, from the way the characters interact with each other, and the little details sprinkled into the world. For what was made within the timeframe, I've enjoyed the entire process.
Please enjoy the game, and have fun with what is there. There is no end credits, so run around to your hearts content. :)
Made in Pokémon Essentials v21.1 using RPG Maker XP
