The RPG Grimshade will come out for Nintendo Switch and we reveal more details of the character combat development systemJune 8, 2018. The developer Talerock and publisher Asterion Games are happy to share the latest news about the recently announced RPG Grimshade. This year the game will be released on several platforms. Beyond the standard Mac and PC, the project will be available for Nintendo Switch as well. All the fans of this console will be able to set off on a journey through the world of Ree’Fah in the first quarter of 2019.
On the backdrop of this good news, we want to tell you a little more about our project.Today, we are going to talk about the character development system.
In the first season of Grimshade, the player controls up to seven characters. Each one is unique, and has their own story and role (or roles) on the battlefield. In the heroes’ equipment, there are slots for all the items you find. Every set belongs to just one of the characters. The slots are divided into five rows: two active slots, one passive, one cumulative, and one for consumables.
Each slot creates character abilities. By changing the item in the slot, you modify the skill, changing what it can do, and how it works—like with runes in Diablo 3. For example, a character changes out a rifle for a new one, the damage isn’t higher, but the new rifle fires an explosive round that, while slightly weaker, is perfect for attacking groups of weak monsters.
Along with modifications, skills have several stats:
- Speed, which determines how characters and enemies move using their CTB meter, creating a turn order like in Heroes of Might and Magic 5.
- Position on the player’s side of the battlefield from which the player can use the skill and which determines the enemy positions that can be attacked.
The player’s role is to assemble a combination of characters and skills that work in concert to oppose the enemies’ items and skills.
This system allows us to guarantee that the game will remain interesting over many hours of play, because players have to change tactics. The equipment you find and monsters you encounter will have you constantly rethinking your strategies.By the way, at the beginning of next week, we are going to have a livestream with our developers to demonstrate the battle system in action. Anyone who wants to is welcome to watch the gameplay and ask questions.
The last piece of good news for today is that our Kickstarter has already reached 49%, and we are making steady progress toward our goal.
