But, before embarking on this amazing adventure, let's have a quick look back, to where it all started!
The game came to life in 2017 at Global Game Jam, and its unique semi-cooperative concept proved to be something worth fighting for.
Confirmation received when the game won 2 out of 3 prizes at Dev Play 2017, the games dev conference for Eastern Europe: "Best game of the show" and "Best design".
We continued the work and presented the game at many expos and conferences like London Casual Connect 2018 (Indie Prize finalist), East European Comic Con 2019, and last year Cologne Gamescom 2019 when we entered the Early Access on Steam.
Today, after one year of early access, the game is fully released on Steam, and we're ready to present you all the new features, islands, the whole experience as we initially designed it. Here are a few of the flag features we've included:
- 20 islands in total and 4 adventure sizes to embark on if you're serious about it
- 4 local players with full controller support as well as sharing keyboard
- fighting moves: push, takedowns, counter-takedowns, and lots of shooting
- integrated support for Steam Remote Play, to invite your friends and play online
- lots of new treasures: beside the coins and diamonds, there are gems to dig for and other buried surprises
- expensive and special new relics to collect on your adventures, and score ahead of your friends at the end
- lucky tickets and a whole wheel of fortune. Don't feel lucky enough? Find the daruma relic and your life will change.
- get the birds eggs, they contain treasures and if you're lucky, you may get a rare surprise out of them
- secret relics hidden and hard to find, but definitely worth having
- leaderboards to brag about your score online, especially when you're alone and do your best
- better tutorial and guide book with tips and all the advice a beginner raider needs
- emotes to express what you can't say
- cool and relaxing music, and exciting drums when things get tough at the final wave
- volcanoes, falling rifts, scary pumpkins, bridges, elevators, rolling boulders, and many more features for you to enjoy during your raids!
This being said, our work is not over yet, as we plan for more surprises, updates, support for consoles and other exciting events.
So, if you're ready to get aboard, BUY the game, and tell us your story! Be warned tough, things may get very competitive after a while, as no one wants to do the hard work and just help someone else win!
Remember WIN ALONE, OR DIE TOGETHER!
Ready to raid? Welcome aboard!
Sincerely, the Last Tales team
