The Department of Wishes is an RPG about granting wishes!
Stylistically, it takes after JRPGs throughout history. Mechanically, it draws from TTRPGs and CRPGs!

If you find the ghost, Porter. You can take her around the town to scare people. She's not the best at scaring people. But she tries.

They're excited about the pancakes, but in a cool way. Not like that one video of that lady going wild for them. That wasn't cool like these lil guys.

Adventuring can be hard. Especially if you can't convince your buddies to get in the lake with you.

🔥 Feature Friday! 🔥
The Department of Wishes is an RPG about granting wishes. While it presents itself as a JRPG, it uses many table top and classic computer roleplaying game mechanics.
Your dice rolls and decisions matter!

The metagame is actually fine. You're just not playing the best deck correctly, bro.

The Department of Wishes features highly accurate post card game tournament banter outside of the LGS.

Visit the diner at night to see some folks enjoying pancakes. And an old fart trying to enjoy his evening.

The Department of Wishes lets you roll dice to:

* Deceive nasty men
* Open rusted trunks
* Search through the dumpster
* Lie to a hotel front desk
* Throw children
* Poison a bowl of chili

TDOW is about making choices, and rolling with them!

The Department of Wishes has a lot of useful options. Switch between windowed and fullscreen, resize the window, and even rebind all the controls.

It also let's you enable VSink, which is useful if you are tired of looking at circular/rectangular sinks.

#ScreenshotSaturday #IndieDev #GameDev #RPG
A low resolution pixel art RPG, the player character is standing in front of a normal looking circular sink in a bathroom. The options menu of said low resolution RPG. We see that the setting for VSink is off. The same RPG, except this time the sinks have been morphed to a "V" shape. The menu of the same RPG, we see that the option for VSink has been turned on.

What's the point of using Scribble if you don't rainbow wave at least once in your game?
