    Rock Paper Shotgun recently discovered side-scrolling 2D indie RPG <b><a href="http://thespiritengine.com/tse2-info.html" target="blank">The Spirit Engine II</a></b> and gave it a <a href="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2008/11/26/spirit-levelling-up-the-spirit-engine-2/" target="blank">writeup</a>.

    <blockquote>But the thing which I think will attract non-trad jRPG fans is the basic choice in it. Yes, you’re following a linear story. But you’re able to select your three party members from a group of nine to begin with, and all the dialogue options are customised. There’s a few limitations - the nine are arranged into groups of three, and you have to select one from each, but that’s still a mass of interactions to consider and frankly, a scary amount of writing. And, from what I’ve seen, its crisp and appropriate and often funny, occasionally edging into slight-heavy-handedness but with a lot of gusto elsewhere to make up with it.</blockquote>
