Longtime lurker here sadly not much time left for me to post nowadays as I am working hard on this project. Anyways I am developing a match-3 rpg in a post apocalyptic setting inspired by fallout and mount and blade. The game lets you choose faction at the beginning and after that you do all kinds of quests to help their war efforts. I can almost say that you are a character in a Civilization like map and you help out your civilization with all sort of things. There are also spells which can be equipped as items which you can get as items after every battle. These spellitems are diablo inspired.
This sounds like a blatant advertising I know but I care about creating great games that we can all enjoy so I would value your feedback.
Anyways here is a short info of the story although there is a lot more to it than this.
fullybroKEN#4 puts you in the shoes of a genetically engineered human in a country ravaged by a constant war between three factions. Combat in a match-3 fashion, help the war efforts of the one of the three factions, choose the destiny of Mir, choose your own destiny and learn unique spells in which each of them has unique properties.
If you want more frequent updates i post regularly on indiedb(just search for fullybroken#4 and instagram(not_the_best_games). You can also find screenshots there. And if anyone cares I could post the links to this sites for easier navigation.
Keep up your work and post more pictures if the game is in alpha-state.

You should check out /agdg/ on /vg/.
Owen Lee
looks nice but can I play as the beast race too?
Ryder Flores
I'll keep an eye on your instagram user, you piqued my curiosity
Elijah Nelson
Thank you for the nice comments!
I will check out /agdg/ thank you for that.
I do plan on releasing it in alpha in some months probably on steam early access but I will do giveaways here too.
Well the first plan was that you can play as the beast race too but sadly as I am the only guy working on it currently, there just isn't enough time to flesh them out.
Don't forget to check out my indiedb or instagram for more pictures.

Nobody cares unless there's furry/kemono in it, otherwise it's generic as fuck
Cooper Robinson
>The game lets you choose faction at the beginning make sure you give a little context before that, don't do the for honor thing where the game makes you pick a side after a 10 second cutsene without telling you each's intentions or beliefs
Anthony Butler
add porn and I'll play it
Gabriel Gomez
Yeah I do plan on doing that for my factions, ty for the feedback.
Hey I can't really draw that great and the only way to add porn would be If I do it... and I dont people would watch that
Jayden Martin
Do you need help creating 2D assets? Your game looks like it's right my alley, I've loved A druid's duel and Greed corp.

>match-3 rpg Aaaaaaand you lost me.
Isaiah Hughes
is this a bot wtf
Michael Morgan
Looks like shit OP, not proud of your wasted effort.
Jason Anderson
I read this entire post and looked at the image and I'm still not sure what the core gameplay is really like. I couldn't find a video of the game in action on your social media. This game is so rough, I wouldn't bother showing it to people until you get video of a functional prototype.
Camden Torres
Hey dad didn't know you lurk around here Glad you like it, well Idk help is always welcome but as I plan on selling it I don't know how everything will work out in that aspect i wish I was i wouldn't need to prove Yea Forums's recaptcha I am a robot all the time
Cooper Hill
why make two posts dumbass, you realize you're bumping the guy's post right. you managed to be a waste or space on a thread in addition to being a waste of oxygen good job retard
Xavier Stewart
well I understand your point it's not in that rough stage but it's a rpg so I was trying to make all the parts of the game work like they should(since making a prototype would mean I just test everything in breadth but not in depth) and I hope I can have a video up soon
Asher Morales
>well Idk help is always welcome but as I plan on selling it I don't know how everything will work out in that aspect That can be discussed.
Where do you wanna go with the art direction? For now you have a super dark story with a happy board, realistic humans and cartoony monsters. Are these all placeholders or did you already generate some?
What theme/aesthetic do you really wanna go for?
Blake Wilson
i did generate most of them. The ui and the portraits were mine but they took too much time to look good. I do plan on doing buildings for the map and trees since I my 3d skills are good. Generally It would be a darker art style think something like diablo 3 but in more modern setting..
Matthew Morgan
Portraits don't look bad for an indie game. An art style like Diablo 3... I think that's hard to pull off, especially in 3D. You risk a mismatch between the 2D and 3D. And something like Diablo 3 has basically the world-class artists, so it will look like a second-rate product in comparison. That's why most indie projects opt for a strong but simpler visual identity, that can actually be first-class with less time/skills.
Yeah no worries I understand was just pointing where I want to go with the style, ofc I don't plan on emulating diablo 3. I should've been more precise and said dark and stylized, i.e. I am making the buildings on the hex tiles to be more darker low poly style.The picture you sent is looking good, do you have more pictures of any other previous work? And also 2d assets would mostly be needed for the abilities icons and portraits so maybe a picture along those types?
Michael Watson
yeah that's probably a good idea
Andrew Martinez
Give me a prompt and 15 minutes and I do it now.
Gavin Hill
Well i would like to see something that took you more than 15-20 minutes, if you want to you can message me on indiedb/instagram(prefarably indiedb) and we can continue our discussion there)
