Astral Fantasy - A Future World of Science and Magic

Galactic Year 24252. The place is the Andromeda Galaxy.

The Andromedan Wars ended with the collapse of the Kodai Federation, and the ruination of the once prosperous Astral League. It is a difficult time of rebuilding across the galaxy, many worlds were either destroyed or left in ruins, and the Astral League has fallen into corruption and decadence. The nefarious criminal organization Blood Diamond and their rivals, the Epoch Planets Corporation have begun a war of their own to claim what remains of the Astral League, influencing the League's government to their own ends with innocent lives caught in the crossfire.

As this happens, an even greater threat approaches the galaxy - an unknown invading force intent on conquering and destroying everything in their path. After the peaceful planet Melmon falls under their control, the young freelance fighter Maya tries to go to Valis, the capital of the Astral League, to warn of the approaching invasion.

This demo covers the first three hours of Astral Fantasy. In this demo you will get the opportunity to use three characters and master a number of magic spells and deadly skills to fight an army of space pirates, robots, alien monsters and the deadly cybernetic invaders of Melmon.






This is the official GW forum post for Astral Fantasy, a turn based sci-fi-fantasy themed RPG that I've been working on for some time now. Any updates to the project I will post here, as well as teaser material. If you're interested in playing this game, you can check out either of the two links below to the latest released demo.

My favorite scene I think is when the party first encounters the Duke.

I love that part too. I'm getting pretty close to cluing things up on Fierra, then we get to move on to the next planet, I can't wait. I think the next demo will be great. I'm projecting a releasing in February or March at the latest.

Thanks. I'm going to do another playthrough at some point after I finish up with Roost to fix bugs, touch up dialogue and balance the game a little. During that time I may get some new screenshots to upload.

I like the art style. I'll have to check out the demo when I'm less busy.

Some more screenshots.

The next portion of your game seems to be coming along nice! The tree leaves in 4 look a little bit off but other than that not much else I would suggest changing based on the screens alone.

Just played through the first chapter again recently, and it was just as fun playing through a second time. Looking forward to the second chapter.

Sorry about the long wait between updates everyone. I've been trying to get more work done on the game but I've been pretty busy lately and haven't had as much time as I wanted to work on it. Please be patient with me.

Before going onto the next part of the game I might go through it again, fix bugs and touch up some stuff.

Got some more progress done today. I'm going through the game again, bugtesting, improving graphics and scenes, touching up dialogue and balancing enemies before working on the final dungeon of the next demo and uploading it to itch.io. I've been working hard to make this game as good as possible, I consider it the biggest game related project I've made ever and I hope it reflects my hard work and dedication. I'm hoping to upload some more screenshots here soon.
