The Storytale is a fairytale-platformer with strange magic weapons and useless random spells.



The Brave Prince hurries up to rescue the kidnapped princess.
All he has got are strange magic weapons and hmm.. immortality.
So will it be just an easy walk in the park or the extremely tough journey to the Dark Wizard lair?



Another story is about the Little Princess. She has to rescue the Prince before the dawn. She knows just a bunch of useless spells, which she mixes up usually. So her current, ready to cast, spell will change very often.
Moreover the Little Princess can die from any danger. Fortunately the fountains of Eternal Youth will be ready to resurrect her during that long night.



Targets platform is Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/629230/The_Storytale/

The art style is lovely! I don't really get what the Brave Prince is doing the second gif though, is a ground smash attack? Or just a heavy landing effect?

[redmassacre]

Thanks, Alce)
It's a heavy landing with autosmashing enemies when falling from very upper platforms.
Just for fun and to make falling for immortal Prince more comfortable )

[redmassacre]

Let's add some rain and new spell of Big Jump (:

[bryku]

Loving the artstyle and the cape "physics". Keep it up!

Saw this on reddit for the first time and I knew this would be awesome. Keep us posted!

[redmassacre]

Let's try and balance teleport spell (:

[redmassacre]

If player plays too long on the level then some goblins may become tired and get some sleep (:

[MegaTiny]

That goblin animation is super cute. They have a lot of personality!

[redmassacre]

If your hammer is too heavy and slow just find another one.
But your knockbacks from enemy hits will be also longer (:

[redmassacre]

Trying to define right voice for Little Princess.
What would you choose ?

[redmassacre]

Every mile is two in winter )

[redmassacre]

Implementing underwater - mechanics, camera, shaders, sound and so on (:

[NajibSG]

I like the style of your art 

[redmassacre]

Thanks) Maybe you could like gameplay also if you like tight control platformers)
1-hour demo is here https://redmassacre.itch.io/the-storytale

[redmassacre]

That streamer could play our game without hands. It's unbelievable)

[redmassacre]

So if you won't move camera upside or downside, we'll "think different" to help you detect enemies out of the view (:

[redmassacre]

Can goblins be tired and then have some rest?
Let's see)
