Quartet is a pretty damn good RPG, turns out. Happiest mistaken discovery I've had in some time.

Low key goated game ngl

It has been 33 years today since Final Fantasy Mystic Quest was first released. This oft maligned spinoff featured simplified RPG mechanics, enjoyable characters, and basic exploration and platforming mechanics that made for a unique experience.

What a week it's been!

Here's my latest Little Victories podcast episode, released a couple of days ago.

Hearing about the 7-year dev cycle of JRPG Quartet and how the team at Something Classic created this gem is fascinating.
