What's Floppy Knights, you might ask? A deck-building, sword-swinging, tactical adventure, where tangible projections are summoned from floppy disks, helping our hero Phoebe, and her trusty bionic arm best friend, Carlton, earn cash and perhaps even save the world in the process.
We're very excited for you to try out our demo and are equally eager to hear how you feel about it. Since it's we're pretty much in the alpha stages, we've detailed here some of the bugs that you can find and how you can best provide us with feedback.
The demo totals 5 levels (one tutorial level included), which will last you for about 45 minutes or so, depending on how well you play your cards. Oh and if you like it, we'd really appreciate you wishlisting it to stay updated with what's new to come!

Need a short history lesson?
Hey, we're Rose City Games, an independent game studio based out of Portland, Oregon! You might ask yourself, how did Floppy Knights came to be? Here's the short explanation:
This game was originally concepted by Marlowe Dobbe (our talented creative lead, artist & animator, you might know her from Dicey Dungeons) in the same concept jam that Rose City also began the ideas for our two previous games: The World Next Door and Cat Lady!
At this concept jam, which was about two years ago, we know we really liked this idea, but ended up sitting on it for a while, while we worked on our other two titles first. The time spent sitting on this concept was valuable, though: as we continued progress with The World Next Door and Cat Lady, Marlowe was able to continue developing the world and it’s characters. While the original pitch for this was focused more on the IP, we realized we wanted to do something tactics-related (similar to Advance Wars).
We had the opportunity to work with Intel creating developer tools, and with the funding obtained from that, we were able to begin the initial prototypes for Floppy Knights. During Fall 2019, we also created a paper prototype of the game, taking it to feedback nights with our local indie game community to begin receiving feedback on the gameplay. At PAX West 2019, we began our search for a publisher, and are happy to share that we’re currently working with Those Awesome Guys to bring Floppy Knights fully to life!
Hope you enjoy playing in the world of Floppy Knights as much as we enjoy bringing it to life. Oh and, let us know what you think! We'd appreciate your feedback.
