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. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieRPG #JRPG #CRPG #TTRPG #TDOW #Gamemaker #PixelArt

🔥 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! @thedepartmentofwishes.com 🔗 www.thedepartmentofwishes.com

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. #indiedev #magicthegathering #gamedev #lgs #indiegames #indierpg

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.
