What is Legend of the Wargod?
Legend of the Wargod is a 3D singleplayer turn-based RPG. Set in a world at war, in a dark-fantasy universe rife with medieval warfare, ancient rituals and great heroes bound by fate.
Story
Zieg, a mute mercenary, moves between battle fronts for coin. Driving him is the hope of one day recovering his stolen voice... or kill the one who took it. His travels unexpectedly place him at the heart of a great shift in the war, where he meets Veor, an imposing Commander, and Helaina, a Whisperer of the Voice of Ra', whose true nature is shrouded in mystery.
This encounter begins anew an ancient legend etched in the very threads of Aeasyn's fate.
Combat
The combat is strategic by design. Battles start with 3 members of your party in the vanguard.
As the fight progresses, you can opt:
- For an offensive approach, where you meet your enemies with your strongest moves, or you opt to build HEAT so that you can unleash your heroes' BATTLE INSTINCT, their ultimate skills.
- To raze the battlefield! If your heroes know MAGIC, and have WILLPOWER, you'll be able to constantly barrage your enemies with fire, earth, lightning, ice, poison and much more!
- For a setup approach, where you can choose to boost the party's ATK & M.ATK, or enhance their DEF & M.DEF and using a DEFEND move to enter a defensive stance (where you can, for example, greatly reduce damage taken).
- For an adaptive approach, where you CHANGE the heroes in the vanguard to better withstand whichever type of threat you face. Outlast your opponents through a combination of healing magic and well timed exchanges.
- For a tactical approach, where you equip your heroes with great weapons, armor and special accessories before the battle begins and use ITEMS to restore your party or debilitate your foes.
- To come up with your own ingenious ways of reaching victory!
Strategic depth, tactical adaptability and predicting the state of the battlefield are the core tenets.
Why Early Access?
To finally show you what I've been proudly working on, to gather more feedback and improve the quality of the final release, and to fund development of the remaining chapters in the great epic story that is Legend of the Wargod.
The mechanics, attacks, items and characters are all done. The story's written. But I'm just one guy, so every chapter takes a long time to get everything wrapped up, up to standard and tested. Early access is the perfect opportunity to release the already completed and tested 1st and 2nd chapter (after the prologue) to the players, so that I can listen to your feedback and improve the quality of the systems and the game's feel, while working on the remaining chapters.
That's all! If you're excited about Legend of the Wargod, be sure to leave a comment here, to follow me here on Indiedb and to Wishlist 'Legend of the Wargod' on Steam!
Thank you for reading and for your support. Have a great day!

Yeah!
UPDATE: Hello gentlemen. In true Murphy's law fashion, I've run into some hurdles while putting the game available for purchase on Steam. The game is built, and once these hurdles have been cleared, the storefront will be up, the demo will be updated and I'll do a follow up announcement.
Hoping that today's the day! Stay tuned!
