Hi folks!
I've lurked here for a while and discovered a lot of wonderful indie games thanks to TIGSource. Some folks here might remember me sharing dev updates from Chambara last year! I'm posting here to show off the next game I'm working on, melessthanthree's surreal action-RPG
L U C A H, which is now
live on Kickstarter at
http://kck.st/2s4Ylia!
<- Trailer
Set in a surreal dreamscape of oppressive rituals and torment,
L U C A H challenges players to survive the onslaught of nightmare manifestations by mastering a deep and flashy combat system. Players will utilize customizable Mantras and companions to string together devastating magical combos and lay waste to Nightmares with a kinetic flurry of beautiful action.
L U C A H’s combat system is truly unique and emerges from many years of studying and critiquing action
games.
L U C A H’s interconnected world is thick with atmosphere and tension. A unique hand-drawn art style suggests a hostile world where much is left to player-imagination. This ambiguity lends the game an emotional potency that digs deep into the player’s mind by inviting them to project themselves onto the game’s world. Think about how distance fog gave Silent Hill 2 its emotional potency and you have a good idea of what we're trying to accomplish with
L U C A H's art style.
Key Features: - Stylish & punishing combat powered by a hybrid of melee- and projectile-based styles.
- Customizable characters capable of sampling a rich variety of movesets and passive abilities.
- Unique Sin & Punishment difficulty system allows you to create the perfect experience for your skill level.
- A highly repayable 5-6 hour campaign
- Coming to PC, MacOS and Linux in 2018.
We're currently seeking funding on
Kickstarter with a goal of
$20,000. Backer rewards include early access, art books, and in-game NPC opportunities. Our campaign ends on July 9, 2017, and we promise a surreal world with thunderingly deep combat.
For further information, or to pledge to the campaign, visit our Kickstarter at
