▍Light Fairytale Episode 3
Light Fairytale is a turn-based Japanese-style RPG series set in a dying underground world ruled by an evil empire. The goal of this project is to bring back the immersion and emotion of 90’s era JRPGs on current platforms with the expected evolution in both design and technique.
Episode 3 carries over after Haru’s encounter with the mysterious girl, as he gathers a party of new and old friends on a journey full of twists and turns to the lost ‘Sky’. The game will feature modern real-time 3D graphics with classic turn-based battles that happen directly on the field. It has ultra-wide and stereoscopic 3D support.
