What is it?

Knights of Azalea is a top-down adventure game inspired by the game boy Legend of Zelda games.

My favorite experiences playing an adventure game were the handcrafted story and linear experiences of dungeons (whilst at the same time, being filled with secrets and tricks to sequence break!)


What does it look like?

I LOOOOOVE the gameboy style of pixel art.  

Who's making it?

ME! I am doing this "indie" from start to finish. From graphics, to story, to music, to programming! My name is Justin Tokarchuk, and I am a professional network engineer. I program and do art in my spare time. This is my first indie game!

This is just getting started but I am very excited about it!, so cheers!

PS: check out Songbringer , as this dude repinsired me to do indie dev. I had given up because I was letting myself get caught up on the little things (what reso, what engine, etc etc wanting things to be perfect. He just told me to go for it. I have much respect for this man.

The artistic direction looks like a solid mix of early Pokemon and Legend of Zelda!  I like it. For example, the outdoor design of the houses is reminiscent of Pokemon, and the inside of LoZ.
