Rathguarde is planned to be a Sidescrolling RPG Action Sandbox Hack'n'Slash Adventure Fantasy game, with a cool industrial feel to it, and a rich storyline, with three races: Goblins, Dwarves, and Elves. We hope to make it fully functional in both Single-Player and Multi-Player modes, with Trading, Combat with Monsters and other enemies, magic/skills (both generic and race-specific), machinery and contraptions, a vast array of items, both mundane and magical, including a huge armoury of weapons and armour, a leveling/experience system, so your character almost completely customizable, tailored to suit your play-style, and a new and unqiue "You vs the World" type theme, where the world itself is out to get you... Rathguarde is currently in it's Alpha stages (We're working on Alpha 4 at the moment), so while we get the base engine up and running, it'll be free (although when we start charging, it won't be much) We're completely open to any help/suggestions/hate you may have :)
Sorry guys, I was a bit late putting thing up, we had some difficulties with the deployment package. Anyway, this should install right over the top, just like the last one. (Also, the ladders are a bit glitchy) This is currently for Windows only.
I've just downloaded the latest alpha. The artwork is really nice and I really like the design of the interface. The only thing that didn't convince me entirely is the jump physics, they're a bit awkward.
Anyway, nice game and please keep updating :)
Thanks :)
We're planning on setting up all the real physics in Alpha 6 :)
I just tested the alpha 4 and, not used to play crafting games, i don't get the goal of the game. Not that it's not good, far from that, it's just i don't get the fun.
Otherwise, the simple and chaotic mood of the game is nice. We get into it easily tahks to color tones. I want to see more and to discover the world. But, i think that the destruction of blocks requieres too much clicks (6) and should be down (to 3 or less) because this made my envy to quit the game bigger than stay to discover.
I hope you could make a tutorial in-game to explain what to do to craft (i don't play minecraft or terraria then i don't know).
I wait to see new features !
Remember, my critics are sincere to allows you to improve ^^.
