If you’re looking for a new rouge-like you might want to keep an eye out for Pixel Princess Blitz. The rouge-like is currently on Kickstarter and at this time over a quarter of the way to its goal. The title has already been green lit by Steam. Here’s some details about the game from its Kickstarter page:
- Overworld Survival – Turn-based, exploration survival on a procedurally generated large hex grid map without hand-holding.
- Real-time Action – A huge motion palette including melee and ranged attacks, spells, dodging, blocking, deflecting and special moves.
- Huge Arsenal – A minimum of 4 weapons types, different armors, accessories and items that can be upgraded, repaired and enchanted.
- Dynamic story – Each move and interaction with factions and characters has a huge impact on your multi-ended journey. Gain respect and affection of NPCs that inhabit the dynamic world.
We believe that having a game with good combat mechanics isn’t the goal to strive for, but only a starting point. That’s why we’ve decided to go beyond the common action RPG. We’ve put a heavy emphasis on bringing you a dynamic and autonomous fantasy world.
You can deal with this world in many ways: You can take up quests, break sieges and stop raids, work for or against a faction, find and explore deep, devious dungeons, meet interesting NPCs and even engage in romantic relationships.
Let this world feel your presence, and watch as your actions lead to logical consequences and unexpected twists.
Here’s some information about the plot:
“The once great Kingdom of Verad lies in total chaos. Verad was invaded and conquered by Irsil 12 years ago, but scattered sections of the Resistance army is still bringing the fight to the Irsilian oppressors.
But according to some rumors, the insurgency isn’t the only thing to be concerned about. There is talk of undeads creeping across the lands, and monsters from old fairy tales returning to this realm, sending their Wildren minions ahead to spread panic, and even a dark ritual to bring doom upon the world is going on in the heart of Verad…
And as always, not many believe these stories.
In this grave age, you assume the role of Kuruna, a young strider who travels far distances on a regular basis to help people in need.
One day, you receive reports of suspicious Wildren activities in the province of Hummingwoods, and venture out to investigate the situation. What has started as a simple patrol mission for Kuruna, would soon turn into an epic journey that would decide on the fate of the realm.”
