    TRAILER



    GAMEPLAY


    LEVEL EDITOR FEATURES


    SUMMARY
    Isles of Adalar is an open world single player/co-op fantasy RPG that can be played in first or third person. The game is one part RPG one part RPG maker as it ships with an integrated level editor and Steam Workshop support. Users can mod the existing content or create their own.

    MULTIPLAYER
    We've always wanted to experience this style of RPG with a few friends. With that in mind, Isles of Adalar will support up to four player co-op on release. However, we know multiplayer isn't for everyone so we will manually scale the difficulty of every encounter to keep the integrity of the single player game design.

    MOD SUPPORT
    Our vision is for Isles of Adalar to become known over time as a nearly endless RPG experience rich with narrative driven content. With this in mind we've designed our game to support mods and user generated content from the very beginning. Everything that exists in game is created using the same level editor that ships inside the game, so the modders have access to all the tools we use ourselves to create campaigns.

    Just shipping tools for modding is not enough to realize our vision. We are going to be actively working to build up a creative community around our game. This starts with making tools as user friendly and efficient to use as possible so that small teams of only a handful of people can make large scale campaigns. But in addition to the tools we will also be giving players extra content that is not used in the base game so that their campaigns can feel unique. This will range from environmental biomes, to different styles of architecture and even new enemies.

    ROLE PLAYING AND REPLAYABILITY
    Choice and consequence is at the core of our dialogue system. We use a hybrid (mostly) text based system that features non specific voice lines for NPCs. This allows us to have in depth dialogue with the characters in the world but also gives the player necessary feedback to reflect the NPC's general attitude and response to the player. For example, you may try to intimidate a bandit and if you fail the speech check you may get a voiced response saying something like "I won't stand for this!" but the text can be more in depth and context specific.

    Instead of using a speech skill to determine dialogue choices and persuasion success, the player can assign multiple personality traits to their character and these traits will give unique responses. The success or failure of a persuasion attempt is determined by both the player character's level and if a specific type of persuasion logically makes sense in the context of the situation.

    Thanks the response has been mostly positive so far, the like ratio for the trailer is 93.4% positive. I'm planning on doing a video this week showing off some of the level editor stuff more in depth.

    We just uploaded a more professional highly edited version of the combat video and a level editor features overview video, I added them to the original post.

    Awesome job so far. Not sure how I feel about the forward attacking, but I'm always willing to change my mind once I start playing something. ^_^

    What kind of networking are you planning with this game? Small lobbies, or larger scale cooperative? If you go small lobbies you should allow more than 4 players access. I feel it's standard these days but I play with more than a few friends. We generally have between 5-8, but find not many games support that many players. My current project allows up to 8 in a game, but then I'm partial.
