Wyrdwarrior

For Yeva, an aspiring martial artist, the path to success seemed straightforward: Fight in the Durance, win the title of Battlemaster, and become the best warrior in Zahran history. But the Gods make their own plans... When things go disastrously wrong, she must travel the world to find the answers to her own problems,  uncovering a plot that could endanger the fabric of reality itself, and becoming a legend beyond her mortal dreams.

For those of you who like Baten Kaitos, Tales (of), Golden Sun, Final Fantasy, and many other fantasy JRPGs.

Want to help?

There's not much you can do to speed up development, as I work on this in my free time... but if you have javascript experience, here are some open issues:

• MOG Weather plugin glitch

Known bugs: 

• There's a problem with wing dash on certain terrain tiles. If you can replicate the glitch that lets you fly into the outer parameters, please let me know how you did it.
• If you owned an item before CH3, then the item description will show the old imprecise "[~]" for stats along with the new stats. Newly gained items should not have this problem.
• No backwards compatibility for save games currently in new releases.

Note

• The game is intended to be played using the 'ar cena' font. The game includes a font loader, but I would recommend installing the font to be safe (included in download). Chapter II uses a font called "DF". if it doesn't display correctly, the game isn't going to make much sense...
• The game is intended to be played with a keyboard. Some features  may be mouse compatible, but I haven't tested everything.
• This is my first game release, so go easy on me. Many features are rough and will be polished more in later releases. Please be kind--the game is free, so if you don't like it, don't play it.
• A rudimentary walkthrough text file is included in the download if you need help. Controls are included in a text file as well.
• SAVE OFTEN--things could go very wrong...

Updates (Chapter V - 12/4/2023)

Backwards compatibility for old saves is limited. I provided a file saved after the 4th chapter (file1.rpgsave) that you can load by choosing "continue" when the game loads if you want to start at the beginning of chapter 5.
