Extremely charming retro JRPG!
I love this game. It has so much charm and you can literally feel the love the developer put into the game. The music is fantastic and was one of the reasons why I bought it after playing the demo. It really feels like a game from the 16 bit era, not just a homage. Like a forgotten classic from the 90s, similar to the first Final Fantasy games. The story is your classic "find the relics" but it has some nice plot twists (I haven't finished it until now.). The fighting system is simple, yet effective. It is turn based with special abilities, summon, status effects, a rage meter and a lot of cool items. The game even has some metroidvania elements where you need items like a hammer or a flying carpet to progress. The graphics are lovely with some nice effects like snow or footprints in the sand and capture that 90s Super Nintendo feeling perfectly. You can even fly in 3D with a dragon. There were some minor issues but the developer fixed them immediately. Thanks a lot for that. I wonder why there are no reviews. The game deserves much more attention. I hope it does well and we see a sequel. All in all if you like JRPGs, especially from the 90s, or the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters, you will love Starlight Legacy. Just buy it, it's fantastic.
