October 30, 2023 - Ervya Studios is excited to announce its upcoming title Rain Tactics, coming soon on Steam. Players can now check out its announcement trailer here, and its steam page here.

Rain Tactics is a cyberpunk RPG tactics with roguelike elements where you play Winter, an invincible god who desperately wants to die. To fulfill his wish, Winter needs to reach the Gate of Oblivion before it is too late. Alas, the Gate is guarded at the top of the tower-city of Shavanath by minions of the Lady of the Dark. And she is decided to deny Winter’s request. Explore the tower city of Shavanath, lead your avowed into battle and take control over your godly powers to change the course of Fate.

Game features:

• Turn-based combat inspired by classic SRPG systems where every attack can be fatal to your avowed
• Multi-class job system where every character can adopt a different class depending on the mission ahead
• Rogue-like run generation that makes every ascension of the city of Shavanath unique
• Deep lore and characters backstories which are unraveled with every run
• Unique fighting system where you may choose between unleashing Winter's godly powers and suffer the consequences, or risk your avowed life into battle

Looks like HBS’s shadowrun, including all the cringe, with simpler procgen maps, and more complex (?) combat mechanics

Indeed, it does look like a mobile game.

See very little that I like

with simpler procgen maps

Worst of all, these kinds of games with turn based gameplay and tiles and 8-directional combat actually have the potential to go a looooooooooooooong way with good maps and AI

Just look at ToEE and KotC

A pro tip: Just die in the first battle and you beat the game, presumably.

Pros:
- Turn-based combat
- Okay graphics
- Awesome music

Cons:
- JRPG-style "conversations"
- Kind of a meh story about wanting to die

Premise in the title of a god wanting to die reminds me of Callisto in Xena Warrior Princess who was always wanting to die but was cursed with immortality... until Xena found The Magic Knife (there's always a magical knife in these things).

Pros:
I'm a GOD

Cons:
How can you kill a GOD?

 

[Grauken]

Cons:
How can you kill a GOD?

Kill all of his followers

Cons:
How can you kill a GOD?

Kill all of his followers

Oh what a grand and intoxicating innocence...

How can he be so naive?

- JRPG-style "conversations"

How would you prefer to present these dialogues?

Ultra lame story. God wanting to die is lame enough, but then the solution is just reaching some gate that's guarded by a villain called "lady of the dark". Jesus christ, that's the kind of shit gradeschoolers come up with. Didn't even want to watch the trailer after reading that.

Finally a good cyberpunk game. Am I right to assume it's free?

Also, it seems to use that Unity Asset Store pack:

I must have misunderstood something. I hope so!
You play Winter, an invincible god. With godly powers. You'd think someone like that wouldn't need teammates to accomplish his objectives, but no, let's put the character background inside this box, and game features like cast of recruitable characters in this other box, and forget they'll be packed together in the same product. "I know you want to feel like a powerful god, dude, but let's forget that for a sec, LOOK!one!! Characters you must drag along the journey, the reason being... just because!".
