The Town
After a short intro, you are dropped into the town. It looks big, but there isnt actually much to do around here. And since dashing isnt in RPG Maker XP, you will have to walk from place to place.

Your goal is simply to do all the sidequests that the NPC's give you. (Or reject them and defeat them in a battle). Once you finish them all off, you will enter an ending cutscene and the game will end. Fairly simple.
Meet the Locals
Be careful when talking to NPC's! Every time you say 'OK' to their BS, you take 10 damage. Make sure to heal by talking to the white cats around town. One is near the middle of the north edge of town and the other is towards the southeast.

This is a list of all the NPC's and what they do.

The Clown - Southwest corner. He tells jokes so bad that you take HP damage from them.

The old lady - Slightly south from the middle of town. A cranky old woman who demands you first cook a walnut (the campfire is in the southeast corner), and then she wants you to fetch her son. In my case, completing her quest brought me to the ending, since the quests in this game are chained to one another and this is the final one in the chain.

The frog - East side, sitting on a pond. The frog wants a bunch of things. You can find the 6 walnuts in the southeast corner and as for the sausages, you must obtain them from the farmer by completing his quest(s). Once you complete the frog's quests, you can go to the old lady (see above).

The Farmer - In a cabin near the middle of the map. He has alot of chores for you. First he wants you to brush the pigs, but you need the brush. The brush can be found in the well that is west from his cabin. Next he wants you to chop wood for him but I aint doing all his chores for him so I beat him up. And got the sausages from winning.

The Scarecrow - Near the well. He tells you to check out the well.

The tiger - Inside the well. The friendliest tiger who isnt trying to sell you frosted flakes. He has the brush and he just hands it over to you. There's also 4 treasure chests around him, some of which are equipment that you can equip to get stronger in fights.

The annoying kid - In front of the pig pen at the northwest. This kid actively blocks the way into the pig pen which you need to enter once you have the brush. He wants you to get him a flower. This flower is all the way in the southwest, on a grave near the clown. It's a long walk...

The pigs - DO NOT SAY NO TO THE PIGS! This will initiate a battle that will crash the game. Other battles don't actually cause crashes but the pigs specifically will crash the game when engaged in combat. Just take the damage and brush them.

Not the annoying kid again - This kid decided to block the pig pen exit as I finished brushing the pigs. He wants ANOTHER flower. No chance I can find any flowers while stuck inside the pig pen, so you better say NO and start beating him up in battle. Once you finish dunking on the small child, he will run off and call you a bully for some reason.

Some random coworker - At this point you might start running into random encounters with this coworker who of course, wants you to do all her work for her. Stay firm and say NO until she buzzes off.

Your boyfriend who is more like a stalker - Another repeated random encounter, I dont even remember dating this dude so the first thing I did is run away as fast as I can. You can try fighting him if you want, I guess.



Final Part
Once you finish brushing the pigs, go back to the farmer and he will give you more chores because he wants you young people to do all the work. Time to say NO to his lazy ass and beat him up by saying NO to him multiple times until he gets defeated. Defeating him should give you the sausages that the frog wants. Give them to the frog, then finally give the frog to the old lady. Be prepared because this entitled old lady will be pretty tough. I hope you found enough food around town to keep yourself alive long enough to verbally destroy the old lady. Game should end once you win the fight.

Congratulations. Now everyone around town dislikes you and that is something you are okay to live with.
