 ==User guide==
-It's turn based, the player moves or attacks, and the monsters each get a turn afterwards. You basically wander around the dungeon, fight monsters, pick up items and try to survive to the next floor and get as far as possible. Although it's turn based, a hardcore mystery dungeon player often has a style that makes it end up being pretty fast paced.

+The battle is turn-based, where you choose to either moves or attacks, and the monsters each get a turn afterwards. Although it's turn based, it is inspired by hardcore mystery dungeon which often has a style that makes it end up being pretty fast paced.

Blinking white dot is the player, yellow dots are friendly characters, red dots are monsters, blue dots items, blue square is the exit to the next floor, finally a black x marks a trap location.

+Tested on FlashCard M3 Real with Sakura firmware 1.34.
 It's playable on an emulator (NO$GBA seems to run it best), but saving the game state, etc. won't work, so you'll have to be ultra hardcore and play start to finish each time.
-==Known Issues==
+==Known issues==
 Still some odd monster AI behavior, not nearly enough item types and monster types. NPC conversations are very basic. Scoring is kind of screwy.
