Pixel Tales - A 2D Action RPG

Hello! :slight_smile:

I worked on this game a few years now during my free time and I think it’s finally time to show it to the public.

About the Game:

PIXEL TALES is a two dimensional action RPG focusing on exploration, class diversity, challenging boss fights and epic loot.

  • A world waiting for you to explore. You decide where to go.
  • No grind required to progress in the game.

Today I released an early prototype of the game: http://www.playpixeltales.com/download/
It really is only a prototype - based on an old version of the game - so don’t expect much. It’s a proof of concept and features aren’t optimized. Especially the multiplayer probably works only locally since the prototype’s network layer is based on TCP (Don’t worry - I implemented a custom, reliable UDP Protocol in the current development build already. In fact that’s what I spent most of my time on the last months)

The current development build has way more features but some critical features are still missing or work in progress (Currently reworking skills). It’s not really “playable” until I add all the features, so people have to wait until I’ve done that to play the game in a state that’s up to date.

I’ll update this thread every time I make progress in development and I’d love to receive some feedback! :slight_smile:



Edit: The prototype is not working. Forgot to add an important file to the rar (Oops. Sorry :x). Reuploading a fixed version now. Edit 2: I updated the link on the website. Sorry for any inconveniences it caused - it should work now properly. Let me know if it doesn't.
