Hi,

Finally, the pre-alpha combat demo is available on Steam. This combat system is not complete, unpolished, but good enough to give some insight to the arena combat of this game.

I will add many new features in the next couple of weeks and will update the demo late March.

I appreciate any feedback you have.

Hi Everyone!

Pre-Alpha Combat Demo is available on itch.io. This early demo consists of three battles in the arena. One is a classic melee fight between two battle teams of tree warriors, two monsters, two archers and a sorcerer. The second fight is nocturnal combat of your team of archers surrounded by monsters in the dark. The last battle is dominated by ranged weapons.

I appreciate any feedback on the forum, especially your opinion about the combat system, which is still under development.

Have fun!
