What Makes Tantibus Different


Since I like to flip tables, I wanted this game to be a non-traditional RPG in the traditional style. In Tantibus, you level up, but you don’t do it through experience from killing enemies. You find special items around the world that will level a character up.

What does leveling do? Well, leveling is only for learning new special attacks. Each character (with one exception) can level up four times (from two to five, starting at one).

So how do you get stronger in stats? Well, I want this game to be a fairly simple RPG. So you only need to worry about a few stats. Attack (AP), health (HP), andpower points (PP). Agility is also a factor, but it’s unchangable. You gain attack by upgrading your weapons. You gain health by upgrading your armor. You gain power points by upgrading your accesseries.

So why fight enemies? Enemies give you money. Money buys stuff.

Wow Mister, this game sounds awesome! Yeah, you’re right. And it’ll be done relatively soon! Like, September or something.

Thanks for reading.

Coming Soon! #Nojong

I'm currently making a Tetris + Mahjong hybrid game called #Nojong. Match colored blocks in the field to make clears. After a number of clears, the blocks left in your hand are scored, so you want to try and keep triples and quadruples in your hand.

Nojong, an arcade mashup of Tetris and Mahjong is out now!

Wonder if anyone can guess what kinda game I'm working on right now with this GameJolt session data as the only clue. I bet someone can sleuth it out!

I'm developing a new commercial game with a small team! A demo will be coming to steam soon, but you can wishlist it in the meantime if you're into deckbuilding / autobattlers / roguelikes!

For some reason, it's really hard to change the alpha value of a tile layer in GameMaker. You can do this easily for sprite or instance layers, but not tile layers. So here's a video on how to easily update the alpha value of tile layers in real time.
