These were actually remakes of edits for an old game I made a long time ago on my old xp machine.  Basically one of those semi pointless items in the game that gives it more life.  You were able to pick the berries from the bush and they would go in your inventory.  The red ones restored 1 hp.  And the blue ones restored 1 mp.

The Diner

-”Enjoy your meal.” The middle aged waitress said as she came over to the table with the ordered breakfast.
Inspector Henry Lambright pulled his tray closer and gazed at the contents of his plate. Eggs and bacon, even some sausages and beans. The worst kind of breakfast really, but the best for a hard working man like him. Or well, some days at least. It made sense that his captain had let himself go a bit since leaving the field.
-”Are you sure you don’t want something?” Henry asked his colleague Izzie. He couldn’t quite remember her surname, for some reason it never stuck.
-”I’m super fine thanks.” Izzie started and leaned back with her coffee in both hands. “But go ahead and eat.”
Henry didn’t need to be told twice and dug in and savoring the greasy taste. Izzie was still young, she would appreciate a real breakfast more after some more years on the force.
-”Turn that up will ya?” One of the customers called from a different table, barely worth calling a commotion in a diner like this.
The waitress stretched to reach the radio behind the counter, a little too much to some guests’ amusement. But the volume of the radio quickly increased and if anyone snickered it was drowned by the newscast.
-”...vigilante interfered with the mugging before the victim was harmed and left the perpetrators tied up to a lamppost. This is not the first time listeners contact the studio about this maniac with a golden heart so let’s be glad she’s on our side and not the gangs.”

-”That chick is making it seem like we’re not doing our jobs.” Izzie complained as she listened to the chitchat from some of the other customers.
Henry really couldn’t care less, he knew about the so-called vigilante who went by the name The Dragon, which made him remember something.
-”Do you know what they called her before they came up with ‘The Dragon’?” He swallowed hard before continuing, seeing Izzie’s disgusted face as he spoke with food in his mouth.
-”They called her Loong Fu, convinced that she was Asian or something - and that she used some self-taught karate to beat up the thugs. Wasn’t until later when she was shot and started carrying herself that people went with the new one.”
-”Still, having a vigilante carrying a gun to enforce some sort of personal justice is crazy right?” Izzie said while casually grabbing one of his sausages to go with the bread she nicked earlier.
-”Well, less paperwork for us really.” He glared at her. Every damn time, they would go grab a bite but she would insist she was good and then steal his food like a damn vulture. “Besides, that is hardly crazy in this little town.” Henry finished and continued to devour his paid meal.
-”Still, maybe we should investigate who she is, bring her in or something?” Izzie continued, oblivious to the pain and suffering she caused her colleague.
-”Or maybe not.” He said and pointed out the window where a man was fastening flyers to the posts on the street. “Is that the same kid as before or do we have another one at our hands?”
Izzie got up and peered through the store window and then came back shaking her head.
-”Sorry Hal, that’s a new one.” She said upset.
-”Damn, that makes this eleven or something right?” He suddenly felt a bit queasy and pushed his plate away. “Where the hell are all those kids going? Serial killer or something?”
-”I don’t know, but it’s our job to find out.” Izzie said, prodding his plate for more food.
-”I just wish we could rule out the impossible to find the improbable truth.” Henry said and sighed, scratching the back of his head, he really wanted a smoke right now.
-”But that’s just not happening in Spring Valley.”

The end boss is way too easy and the game is probably unbeatable if you go with an intelligence based build.

It is not. Ok I didn't go FULL intelligence because you said it'd be unbeatable, but my intelligence was the highest and it was ok.
I should try a full intelligence one next.
Great game otherwise. It's pretty well balanced for a game made in such a short amount of time, I've seen much worse.
I should start doing game jams, maybe I'll actually finish a second game for good then

The Stock Blue Berry.png is a berry bush that I modified to be blue instead of red.

The Pale Berry.png is a berry bush that I added another berry to.  I also made it a little larger so it was more even and centered in the 16x16 square.  Then I doctored it up.

The BlueBerry.png is the same as the second bush, only the berries are blue.

The fourth one is a modified sign.  I took the cross section out and added another row of letters while reversing the shadowing to give it a more versatile pattern.

I love that Unicorn Cosplayer was so well loved. As I was replaying I just wished I had made them in more colors. But now I wonder if his desires to escape might not have manifested in omni presence and he was able to escape without leaving his cell.

Hmm, not sure it would classify as fan-fiction since you're one of the developers

True, but it gets kinda messy since it's a chaingame I guess?

Glad to hear, I'm pretty happy about it myself.

Especially since everything goes together so well this time. Previous games have had some more missmatch of resources and palettes and such.
I'm just glad we have so many talented people on board to make both sprites, animations and music.

I will have to try the others.  I seen a lot of references to your other titles in this game.

Out of curiosity, did someone manage to get the bonus level in Moose Trooper?

I got as far as the dude that you are suppose to kill.  And the game ended.  Was there more?
