I hitch-hiked to the moon. I fought squirrels, loan sharks, cosplayers and sports drink mascots with a garden rake, a traffic cone and extreme acrobatics. I overcame road blockades, racial discrimination and student debt. I met a duck. This game is a relatively simple but delightful JRPG in the style of Earthbound or Omori, featuring turn-based combat with some bells and whistles. It's surreal and whimsical, and sports some top tier writing that most indie games can only dream of. The characters are charismatic, distinctive and funny, with great lines of dialogue all the way through, both when it comes to jokes and important lessons about friendship, growing up and overcoming adversity and past traumas - you will literally laugh and cry.

About This Game
Cricket: Jae's Really Peculiar Game is a funny and heartwarming hand animated JRPG from Studio Kumiho.
After a devastating loss, Jae would do anything to fix the past. Blast off on that quest with your newfound friends on a journey to the gates of Yimmelia, a fabled land on the moon that’s rumored to grant any wish.
This JRPG draws on ideas from genre classics, but with varied new gameplay twists. You’ll explore forests, cities, rock concerts and more, with traversal that is always fun and dynamic; there are no random encounters, while you can dash and charge into objects (and people!) for unique results. How you interact with people will influence game events and combat.
Combat incorporates timed hits, with special combinations as you team up with amazing party members. Build the meter, attack and defend, while unleashing awesome combos for better rewards!
Game Features
Traverse forests, explore cities, ruin a rock concert, and crash a fandom convention, all while throwing your JRPG expectations out the window. Experience a modernized take on the genre: no random encounters, a sprint feature, headbutting, and no grinding!
Recruit and travel with five new friends, customize your battle experience with six playable characters, and time your attacks to build your meter, ultimately unleashing powerful duo and trio attacks! The better you do in combat, the better the rewards you receive at the end: more XP, more items, more money!
Freely interact with NPCs during conversations: stand there and listen to them gab, throw items at them, or just walk away. But remember your actions have consequences—how you treat people in this world affects combat.
Consult with your party members about your surroundings, how to beat enemies, or just to check in on your pals. Experience wacky and irreverent conversations and scenarios. You never know what'll happen next!
Full, all-new OST composed by Shane Mesa and Tomoya Tomita.
