Online Turn Based RPG

SPECTRE

This is my latest little project. It should be finished fairly soon, and is a turn based RPG that can be played by one or two players (via internet).

It's extremely oldschool, with grid based movement small static sprites and cool music. You get to level up your character's health and power by gaining experience points from killing enemies. And when you're not killing slimy creatures, you're solving various puzzles in an adventurous and mysterious manner.

The story revolves around a space patrol officer who receives an old distress signal from a planet called "Spectre". When he arrives at the space colony on Spectre, the place seems completely deserted… Except for the local wildlife which seems unusually vicious. Your mission is to find out the origin of the distress signal, and what has happened to the people that used to live here.

Here's a few screens that you can look at while I keep working on the game:

The Title Screen

The Patrol Ship

A Battle in Action

About a release date… Well, as usual; don't hold your breath. It'll be done when it's done. I've got about 50% of the game done already, so it shouldn't take too long, though ;)

Not really my thing, but I guess I'll give it a go anyway.

The level design is pretty neat.
