Oblivion Eve

A roguelike action-platformer where you use upgradeable weapons to combo powerful enemies to their doom!

Overcome tough fights, platforming challenges, puzzles, and more in your effort to free the titan who is incarcerated in the shifting prison's depths.

Gameplay Overview

Each time you venture into the shifting prison, the layout of the rooms will be randomized. And there's no map to guide your way, either - you'll need to do your best to navigate as the prison itself fights against you - by moving rooms, making you double back on yourself, and putting powerful enemies in your path.

At the heart of the prison lies an enchained titan, who will fight against your every attempt to free them. For each of the four gems you destroy, you'll break one of the chains binding them. Find the titan four times, shatter all four chains to fully liberate them, and claim victory!

And remember to use your ABC's: Always Be Comboing!

Little Eidolons

An open-world rpg where you can catch, train, and battle with over 100 varieties of monsters!

Gameplay Overview

Gameplay is performed by navigating the overworld until you encounter either a wild Eidolon or an opposing trainer, which transitions the game to battle mode. Battle mode uses turn-based mechanics across a grid to allow you to fight - until all foes are defeated!

If you (the little wizard guy) fall in battle, it's an immediate game over! So you'll want to use the rest of your team members to protect them. But there's benefits to getting the finishing hit - if they defeat a wild Eidolon, you'll catch it and add it to your team! And if they defeat a trainer or their Eidolons, said character will drop an Eido Gem, an item you can have a unit pick up during battle to permanently enhance them.

Little Eidolons - Beta Release

Thu, 05 Jan 2023 15:28:39 UTC

NOTE: The full game has since been released, and can be found here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?pid=124298#p

I'm finally ready to show off the beta version of my first game - a monster catching/training/fighting game called Little Eidolons!

It features a huge explorable overworld map, over 100 variations of Eidolon you can catch, and over 50 moves!

I'd love it if people would be willing to check it out and tell me what ya think, so I can make the final version as awesome as possible!

The save files are compatible with future versions as well, so you don't have to worry about losing your monsters when updating to the release version~
