Benjamin, the main character in this RPG Maker game, knows he's trapped in a flawed adventure and desperately wants out. Infinite-loop Yes/No choices force him to play along anyway, pulling him into fetch quests across boring maps with stock graphics and recycled assets. He teams up with Anthony, obsessed with the in-game strategy guide, and Carol, the developer inserted into the story, as events spiral into chaos.
Players explore two story routes leading to unique endings, plus three hidden ones and easter eggs like entire other games tucked inside. Backseat Developer Crystals offer direct guidance, mimicking a friend hovering over your shoulder. Full voice acting comes from one performer, paired with a mostly original soundtrack. Casual RPG and adventure fans who enjoy meta twists and self-aware humor will find plenty to uncover.
The RPG that's so bad, the main character wants nothing to do with it!
The Two Moons is the epitome of "what not to do when making an RPG Maker game." It features an unoriginal storyline, poorly fleshed out characters, stock graphics, boring maps, assets recycled from other abandoned projects, next to no instructions for the player, and way too many fetch quests! But there's a twist: Benjamin, the main character, is aware that he's in a video game, and he's aware that the video game he's in sucks. But due to an unfortunate series of infinite-loop Yes/No choices where No is not really an option, Benjamin is forced into agreeing to be the main character of the game despite his objections. Along the way, he is joined by Anthony, his best friend who is obsessed with the strategy guide of the game that they are currently characters of, and Carol, the not-so-secret game developer self-inserted into the story, and things really start to go off the rails.
