If you measure your success by any metric other than "am I happy that I made this?" then you would indeed be better off spending your effort elsewhere. Ideally in some sort of a mineshaft.

Turn-based, Party-based, Tactical, Open World, Isometric

What a pity. The game seemed quite interesting and the developer already had another game on Steam.

They were very active on social media and showed many videos about the progress of the development of the game, but... suddenly they disappeared.

One? Five!

Apparently these games are pure tactical combat. No story or anything. Although the dev has added some cutscenes and things to spice it up to Shieldwall Chronicles: Swords of the North. Thanks for these, may have a gem of a find on our hands. And several games, to boot.

:1.5/5:

it gets the 1.5 for the c64 aesthetic and sorta-gloomy atmosphere. combat sucked, based turn-based, really minimal and the enemy seems to get an extra move when it's a move/attack system. no character customization options, not even to name a guy, and seemingly zero rpg elements. only stats are health and spirit (mana). leans too heavily on the 80s though, very minimal information given outside a set of help screens, but no manual. i am sure there are autists here that it'll tickle their feelers though. i like jank, and i can play shit, but i just didn't enjoy the beginning loop enough to get through the first half hour. monster taming? maybe? again, the start was just not enjoyable enough to find that out.
