However, I am to the point where I think I can open the game up without negatively impacting my ability to continue work on it, so that's what I'm doing. Some things to keep in mind:
1. Bugs. Oh God the bugs. For instance, due to the way I set up paying SP costs, earlier today if you didn't have the SP for a spell you would try to cast it infinitely many times. This didn't work too well. Also, the experience formula isn't producing the results my calculator believes it should be, so I don't know what's up with that. Also, other bugs we don't know of yet.
2. Because I didn't have time to finish this up, enchantments basically haven't been written yet, so if the enchantment in question is supposed to have some sort of effect (e.g. Deathmark, Scapegoat), it doesn't instead.
3. No quests. =( Also, Initiates and the other new guys don't have any items or anything... so don't pick those classes yet. And tags have yet to be applied to any spells.
I'm going to continue fixing things and adding content throughout the week. You can reference how things are going via the Library (which hilariously encountered some trouble itself and is consequently no longer fully functional - although you can still see lists of things), and I'll make release notes when I complete a major string of updates.
If you want to grind (read: this is all you can do), the only enemies are located all over the ocean/rivers, and you should be fairly familiar with them. Otherwise, development continues.
Happy hunting!

More importantly: is there anywhere I can go to fight enemies I can actually hurt as a level 1 character with no class? >_>

Other weirdness:
The Tiny Pike can be equipped by Horsemen, but not Pikemen. o_O
There's a Rider's Helm and a Riding Helm, but the Rider's Helm is better in every way.

Hm, this is easily solved. What weapons would you have in mind for your classes?

Now it can only be equipped by Pikemen.

Not sure what happened here, but I'll leave it for now.

Well, with the Tiny Pike moved the only one that can't equip anything is my Apprentice, which is... sorta the point, so eh.

Yes.
I notice you haven't.
EDIT: Should be fixed. Make sure it only levels you once though.

Giant Squid attacked Irvine, dealing 0 damage!
Bass attacked Irvine, dealing 0 damage!
Kain attacked Giant Squid, dealing 3 damage!
Irvine attacked Giant Squid, dealing 3 damage!
Damien attacked Giant Squid, dealing 4 damage!
One of my characters seems to always Defend no matter what. I've never seen him attack despite always being set on Attack... and I don't know why nothing can hurt me right now. But it's nice getting 36 EXP a fight without taking damage at level 1. >_>
EDIT: Yes, it never says who is defending. Just that they are.

Yeah, I was about to bring this up.
With 20 DEF/10 MDEF (easy to get to, just buy a Rider's Helm for everyone), you're invincible to every basic enemy except Sharks. <_<

That's bizarre. Could you log an entire battle for me?

Well, I can change that if necessary. Giant Octopus/Squid kind of sucks all around.
I've also come to realize that Father Trout is apparently God. I can't even deal any damage to him with a Toy Sword, but everything else gets destroyed except Sharks. >_>
Yeah, FT is the second-best monster in the game. The first-best is the Sorlit, located all over Verduria (darker area on the east coast, e.g. field 7288). He's using the boss formula if you'd like to give it a shot.

Alex would be the one never doing anything. I also just noticed this at the top:

You can rename it in the stats page.

That helps, I'll look into this.
I think he did just do something to Giant Octopus since it just started hitting me for 3 damage through fully geared level 1 characters. >_>
Yeah, I gave it some MATK. >_>

Oh, I don't know then. Douse should be doing more damage. It still has 13 ATK/DEF.
Also, could you right click a battle page -> view source -> copy/paste all that into an E-mail for me? seraphim7@gmail.com
