Hi! I get a black screen when I leave the first room at the very beginning of the game. And if I press the attack button, I hear the sound of a sword swing, but the music no longer plays and I can't see anything. Is it just me or do you guys also have this problem? :)
oh no. That's not supposed to happen👀 I will take a look when I get home later. Sorry about that! I test played but it's possible I was doing something and made a new built after that. Will fix tonight!
No big deal! It's just a bug, and demo versions of games are primarily needed to identify bugs, and only then to get an impression of the game itself. Moreover, there are probably no games without bugs during the prototype testing process😊
I just streamed the Palins Fate demo and had a blast exploring its charming world, battling monsters, and solving puzzles. If you love classic action RPGs like Zelda or Secret of Evermore, you’ll definitely feel at home here!
That said, like any early project, there are still some rough edges — and I go into a lot of detail about both the good and the areas for improvement in my video. I really think with a little polish, Palins Fate could become something truly special.
Major respect to the solo dev for creating such an ambitious and heartfelt game — excited to see how it grows from here! 🙌
Thank you so much for playing and making a video about it! It makes my day when someone plays it and is having fun🥹💜 I will be uploading an updated demo soon with lots of fixes and some more content.
I will definitely check out your video! Thank you so much again:)
Hey there! Really nice little demo! As a composer who also publishes game music packs here on itch — and someone working on a game myself — I really appreciate the atmosphere you’ve created. It’s got that nostalgic NES-era JRPG charm that hits just right. Despite the short length, the experience is genuinely enjoyable. Can’t wait to see how it grows — great work!
Thank you so much for playing my game demo! I'm so happy to hear you liked it! Yes it's still a bit short but I'm working on publishing one more updated demo before the final product. It will have a lot more content and bug fixes:)
Thank you again for playing!
Oh you are a composer? I will check out what you make:)
Thank you so much for the reply — I’m really looking forward to that updated demo! I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for it. It’s clear you’re putting a lot of heart into the project, and it really shows.
And yes, I’m a composer! I’ve released two music packs here on itch, and I’m always excited to connect with fellow developers. If you ever need custom music or just want to bounce ideas around, feel free to reach out anytime!
Best of luck with development — I’ll be cheering for your game’s success!

Thank you so much I really appreciate it!
I'm always on the lookout for new retro/16bit music since I don't know how to make gaming music myself. Something I hope to learn one day!
Right now I'm okay I think on music. I have enough for placeholders but might change out some tracks later on:)
Well, then I wish you productive work on your game. I will follow the game updates. Let's keep in touch.
