Game News Operencia: The Stolen Sun is an upcoming turn-based dungeon crawler by a Hungarian pinball developer

Detected some vanilla assets from the unreal marketplace and also the change of styles ( cartoony <--> with cel shader) doesn't help in my opinion. Nevertheless if i have the time i will try it out, because it is made by Magyars.

Hi everyone, hope you don't mind me commenting here - I work for Zen Studios and saw this topic (thanks OP for posting it!)

Glad you guys seem to like the premise and the style of the game, we hope to deliver there.

As for the party, we have hero creation and a selection of companions to choose and use during the game.

If you have any questions, I would be happy to answer (those of which I'm allowed at this point).

Are there dwarves in Hungarian folklore?

 

[McLovinZen]

Nice, there are.

Although more like the woodland red-hat funny kind of dwarves who use magic and give riddles, not so much as the Tolkien-esque hardasses with the axes.

Can you elaborate on the character development/customization a bit? Stats, skills and other numbers stuff?
How open is the gameworld?

Would you also know if the game will come to GOG ?

Do the playable characters have access to magick and if so how much magick is there in the game?

 

[ManaJunkie]

YES! Non japanese blobber...there can not be enought of them! Looks promising. I hope the fights and riddles will be challenging.

 

[ghostdog]

I'll be watching this, it looks promising. I hope there is a wide selection of pre-made characters though.

Yes, you can play as a mage and have magical abilities. I'd say there is a fair amount but it is woven through Central European tales and is sort of a mix of traditional fantasy magics and the one from legends.

Thanks, that's the goal!

This I cannot say right now.

We'll have some more detailed info on these, I don't want to spoil too much right now. Although to answer your question somewhat, you'll have what you would expect from a game like this in term of skills, builds etc.

In regards of the gameworld, you will be able to follow the narrative through the game while exploring the different levels.

Sorry, that was not very clear. Is it closer to Lands of Lore (linear succession of areas) or to Wizardry 7 (go wherever you want)?

 

[entr0py]

Wow, what a surprise, a blobber developed by fellow Hungarians. Niiiceee! I have put 70 hours even into the mediocre Bard's Tale 4 so this will probably be a
Hope it turns out good, the trailer got me interested for sure!

Good luck boys!

Turn-based blobber - Yay!



Looks like Might & Magic X meets Grimrock.

 

[naossano]

I had hope for a turn-based pinball rpg set in medieval hungary.
Should read more slowly.

What? Sonic Spinball CRPG?

After god awful mm9 did the new company redeem MMX to be worth a damn?
