About

This is my first personal project \o/

I started this game to practice programming, I chose to make this game because it would be fun and also a challenge.

It's in the first version, I'll add and refine it over time, but for now you can download and play. (Soon I will share the executable on google drive.)

The Hero's Journey is a turn-based rpg, and its plot takes place on a continent in chaos between factions, kingdoms, races and even worlds.

The current scope:

• Choose from three ethnicities of Elves
• Choose from three classes according to your chosen ethnicity
• Create and Delete characters (up to 9 characters saved)
• Level progression system
• 55 areas to venture into and battle with region-specific opponents.
• Battle system (Attack, Defend and Evade)
• Battle Status System (Dodge, Block, Critical)
• Intuitive battle log

• You can watch it here - Youtube - Menu
• You can watch it here - Youtube - Game
