I'm catching up a bit.
Zeliard looks like a pretty neato game, though the tough as nails platforming would make me rage quit or at least give me an ulcer. I could handle the grinding and mazey layouts (with maps from the interwebs anyhow), but that platforming is likely beyond my meager skills; I commend you for powering through. The voices are good fun too; they're rough as hell but I'd have thought them bad ass for the 80s, and I agree that the tunes are quite pleasant as well.
Also, I'm glad you mentioned Adol. Early on, I was thinking "Hey, look, it's everyone's favorite ginger adventurer!", and him leaving damp panties in his wake is totally on brand.
