When her father disappears, Lyza follows in his footsteps to find him. On her way, she'll encounter charging grandmas, snowmen fighting their concept of capitalism, an ogre that can't keep his allergies in check, and much, much more.

Features:

  • Over 500 achievements just waiting to be unlocked!
  • A game specifically designed with speedrunning in mind! Figure out the best routes and strategies to reach the end the fastest and share it with the community!
  • An active, for RPG Maker rather unconventional, battle system - spells affect the map itself and can speed up Lyza or even freeze time itself.
  • A myriad of ways to customize Lyza with various weapons and armor, creating your own playstyle.
  • Infinitely* Humorous
    • *Until the game ends**
    • **Well, okay, at least there *is* humor!
  • A rollercoaster of emotions - what starts out as a fun adventure is soon discarded for a serious twist towards the end.
  • A spoiler-free feature list.  (Dang it. We'll get 'em next time!)

The Greatest Survival is a sequel to the "The Great Survival" trilogy's more than humble beginnings, but with a lot of effort put in to make the best of something that was without a doubt terrible. Content-wise it has expanded a lot as well - this game alone is four times bigger than the entire trilogy as a whole!

Hint: It is NOT required to have played the previous three games (69105) to understand this one, as it would count as some sort of modern torture method and would land me in jail.

F5 switches to fullscreen, F6 changes the size of the window.

Install instructions

Hey! It means a lot that you plan to download this game. Thank you so much! Apart from that there isn't much to say - if you aren't using the itch.io app, simply extract the archive and launch the .exe within! 

A few pieces of advice, because very few people even glance at included README files nowadays:

  • F5 switches the game to fullscreen mode and back!
  • F6 changes the window size / scaling. If the initial window feels too small, try adjusting it!
  • F12 resets the game back to the title screen!
  • There are AUTOMATIC SAVES. However, those should NEVER replace your own manual ones. The game saves whenever you switch maps or pick up / lose an item, so if you do something risky, you might end up softlocked if you rely entirely on autosaves!

Everything else will be explained in the game - should it end up being a little bit too difficult for you, try to adjust the game difficulty from the "Options" menu or by simply exploring more!

Could've just as easily not said anything! Battle Mechanics aren't complicated, it's just a matter of learning patterns (: Constructive criticism is always welcome, this isn't that~!
