"Combine 2 Incompatible Genres" huh? My main idea was that no one would expect to be interrupted during an Endless Runner game. SworduRush, an endless runner... JRPG?

I had much fun with this, just wish I had more time to add more enemies, better AI for the enemies and more field objects & backgrounds

The ideas in your game are great. The random due to the endless running game is a bit frustrating but that's pretty normal. It took me several runs to finally see MP in the air hahaha.

The enemies are really strong, except the slime one. Fights against the vampires take an eternity, the crane just kills me everytime and I don't even talk about the dragon. Magic is not incredibly powerful, it just costs MPs for nothing impressive. Since regaining MP is something pretty difficult (it's random and I would say it's not easy because I found just one blue star), I'd expect it to be more useful. Also I saw that there is a system of level when I died but there is no way to see how far I am from the level 2. There is no way to see if I'm going to unlock my superskill soon, which could be helpful since I need it to kill cranes.

You may have been a little too amibitous for everything you wanted to do because there are so many things that lack printing (EXP, Skill) and money doesn't seem to be really useful. Still I had a lot of fun playing for game. Thank you!
