General Information


In Fantasy Shmup game you play as Prince Rigon, a Defender of Ragoona Kingdom. With an aid of magic wings that let him float above the ground and crossbow in hands he has to fight back endless enemy armies that assault Ragoona.


Vile and evil King of the NorthLand sends upon Rigon’s lands deadly armies which pillage and burn villages. Orcs from Dusk Prairie also never give rest to kingdom troops. And not so long ago hordes of Undeads started assault from Eastern Wastelands destroying anything on their way.


Controlling a character in traditional Shoot’EmUp manner player stands against enemies on their own territory. He is trying not only to hold up their invasion but turn goes of war into way he need and at the end deal with that threat once and forever.


On winning battle Rigon become more experienced and stronger. In future it will give him access to new battlefields and let him cast a challenge to more powerful and dangerous enemies.


Besides of destroying live and not (hello, undeads!) enemy forces Rigon have to restore pillaged Ragoona by rebuilding structures destroyed by foes. For that purpose he will use different resources gathered on battlefield.


And he will need a lot of it. On one hand Capital need to be patched as soon as possible, and on the other Farms should be brought to an order. And you shouldn't forget about Armory because new, more powerful and strong equipment never will be useless!


So load up your guns and bring your wings! We’re taking off…

Your images look real nice. For the less educated can you explain what SHMUP is?
I'd like to see some game play video, that'd be cool.

 

Thank you for your attention))
SHMUP is short for Shoot Them Up.
Video will come a bit later when there will be enough to show up))
Yes, the game is playable now but I want to add some minor details in it to make it look great.

 

So like Contra or Ikari Warriors but fantasy? If so cool!

 

Nah, not Contra or Ikary but more like TwinBee or something like this. And with RPG elements 8)
But hmmmm....fantasy Contra...sounds great!..probably my next game will be contra-style platformer in fantasy settings! Thanks for tip))
