The future of Rome is in your hands: what will your legacy be?

Everblood Arena

Everblood Arena

Everblood Arena is a turn-based roguelite tactics arena battler with a heavy focus on procedural generated items and character builds. Get your team of fantasy warriors and take part in 5v5 tactical turn based battles. Rise your way up the ranks and claim the greatest prize, the Everblood Cup!

item randomization

Item randomization is a huge part of Everblood’s design philosophy. A huge array of spells & modifiers exist and items through a myriad of algorithms will mix and match these so that each piece of gear comes with it’s own skill tree & modifiers. Make tactical choices between leveling up your character’s Strength, or leveling up his Fiery Sword of the Helmsplitter to unlock it’s epic quality rank 3 spell.

This doesn’t just stop at items though! Character’s will also be randomly generated, with a small variety of races, each containing their own smaller skill tree’s with lots of attribute randomization.

Our hope is that this focus on randomization and creating a rogue-lite atmosphere will add lots of replay-ability and create dynamically changing character builds.

a Roguelite?

We intend to add roguelite elements to Everblood, with characters sustaining meaningful injuries (and potential death!) from getting knocked out in combat, we expect players to have to recruit new hero’s as theirs die, slowly adapting their tactics and equipment to fit the strength’s of their randomly generated character team. Our hope is that each run of Everblood will be a multi-hour affair, with difficulty changing drastically based on your starting roster & the generated teams you come up against

Survive the Fall

Survive the Fall

A global cataclysm has brought an end to civilization as we know it.

Finally, after many years of darkness, sudden climate changes, numerous fires, extreme temperature fluctuations, an eternal has come over the planet and the conditions allowed you to try to explore the post-apocalyptic Earth.

As one of the survivors, you will have to survive in this hostile world, find other allies and with their help build a new settlement - for only as a close-knit community will you be able to survive these harsh, new times.

Not everyone will be friendly… the fight for the resources left over from the remnants of civilization can be brutal…

SURVIVE

Gather precious resources so you don’t die of hunger or cold.

Light fires, craft weapons and items, hunt and don’t get killed.

EXPLORE

Explore an open world full of dangers, secrets, and valuable artifacts. Admire the views and the wildlife that dominates the land. Be careful in the forests… it’s easy to get lost.

The asteroid left behind more than a big hole in the Earth… Beware!

BUILD AND MANAGE A SETTLEMENT

Create a new settlement that will grow and the resources it produces will help you in your missions.

Remember, only a good commander who wisely uses limited resources will be able to win the respect of others.

ASSEMBLE A TEAM

Assemble a team that will help you survive and support you in battle. Decide whether you want to go on missions with support, or if you prefer to leave your companions to guard and take care of the base. Take care of their health and condition.

AVOID DANGERS

Sneak around and, if necessary, face opponents in open combat. Remember, however, that ammunition is severely limited, medicine is scarce, and every companion is worth his or her weight in gold. Is it worth the risk?

Main Features:

  • a world full of secrets

  • a survivalist approach to gameplay

  • team and resource management

  • construction and development of the settlement

Tower Keepers

Tower Keepers

Is a game that has a lot of problems If the heart does not really love it, suggest that you never play.

  • There is a problem with just starting to log in. Sometimes it will not check the stream and can not enter the game. This one is still easy to fix by deleting Delete Program Files (x86) \ Steam \ userdata \ 259069783 \ 881490, then it will give you a new stream link and access it.

  • But if it crosses the link itself and the button will be a little smaller by slightly shrinking the left and right sides This condition is as severe as I try, but I can’t fix it. I only need to re-install Windows.

Misunderstood by new players. Yes, you can “speed up” the starring of your epic heroes with money. However, there are equalizing heroes at the common and uncommon range that level the playing field with strategy and knowledge of the game. New players just get pounded in because they can’t be bothered to figure it out. Knowing which common and uncommon heroes to invest in as a f2p player (buying stones up to 5k gold on the shop every day) in conjunction with knowing which SuperRare/Epic heroes you want to funnel stones into (tower/missions-never waste on a common/uncommon hero even if they are preferred) is what makes a player. Is it possible for somoene to spend thousands of dollars to star up a tough epic hero? Absolutely. We called those guys a “JimRen” when I was dinging up as a f2p having to vs him. He was the iconic p2w and he never did any pve content, leveling as slowly as possible by beating up on f2p players in pvp and nothing else. One of the best moments in the game for me was when I used 4-5* common heroes in the 46~ range to beat his 7* epic and SR heroes. Literal thousands of dollars spent, defeated by some game knowledge and strategy. Don’t whine about p2w when you don’t understand the game.

An Auto-Battling Lesson in Roguelikeing

I bought Astronarch hoping to have some fun with it for 5, 10 hours tops.

After an hour and a half, having beaten the game for the first time, on my first attempt, I thought, “Uh… that’s it?”

As you can see by my total play time, no, it wasn’t.

This is one of the first games in which I felt like deliberately going after all of its achievements, this is one of the the most well-balanced games I ever played, and it was made by a single guy.

Nice game, good idea and potential genre. It became a part of my screen now since you dont need to do anything during battles.

really great game and concept! I don’t play many games for nearly this long

I wish the progression was unlimited somehow though.. it seems lightning spam covers most top spots? I have one concept strategy that may work but I don’t think the math will add up properly to counter lightning in the end… unlimited progression would just mean that, it would take an exponential amount of time to counter meta strategies (i think?)… (maybe a constantly shifting meta?) just a thought though, it may be tough to implement
