Or you build a game like Racettear that simply has no click-to-move, even though it's played from an overhead perspective. You need to use arrow keys to move around. It's downright awkward on a PC. The "fix" is to plug in a gamepad.
What? I had to read this two or three times, it boggled my mind so. It sounds like you have a serious case of mistaken expectations.
It's a doujin game in the style of a 16-bit console JRPG. There is no reason whatsoever to even expect to click to move. Would you really want to play the action portion with click to move? Really? Now that would be awkward.
Anyway, pretty much all doujin games that I've played used the keyboard as the sole control mechanism. Just because a game has an overhead perspective doesn't mean it's Diablo. You have to adjust your expectations to the genre or style of game you're playing.
Do you expect to be able to play Street Fighter 4 on PC with a mouse? Left-click to move, right-click to attack? No, you play it with the keyboard or use a controller or arcade stick which is obviously what it was designed for.
