May 2023 Update

Arcadian Atlas

Arcadian Atlas is a Tactical RPG about the choices people make for love and power, and how those decisions tear a kingdom apart.

(apologies for the slight delay, I lost track of time! - Becca) It's that time again! Welcome to another monthly Arcadian Update! This month we've got a new advanced class to show off in the Ronin, along with news on achievements and localization - so get your katanas at the ready and let's dive right in! [h1]Achievements & Localization[/h1] As we near completion on the gold build of Arcadian Atlas, we've turned our eye to all the bells and whistles that come along with game development. [h1]Localization[/h1] We've begun our localization search for the perfect translators to the Arcadian Atlas script - which is huge, running the gamut from cutscene dialogue, skill & item descriptions, tavern contracts, chatter, compendium entries, and tutorials. We'll keep you all posted as we secure additional language translators so we can see the full spectrum of languages available upon launch - so stay tuned! [h1]Achievements[/h1] Who doesn't love a little recognition for their hard work!? That's why we're chipping away at some of the creatively implemented achievements to make sure not just story progress but also mastery of the skill and battle systems are rewarded. Find a sneak peak of some of the achievements below: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30578666/97d9f060184ffb9d13aaed8f6a72c83fd1f3bbe8.png[/img] [h3]"No Think, Only Smash"[/h3] - Inflict Rage on a single unit in battle.

[h1]The Ronin[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30578666/a03a99e44cfa86340dc020daa47d92611486d5c1.gif[/img][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30578666/492025c9c1d04da6797e66b2680ee2bc2a66f898.gif[/img] The Ronin is wholly aligned with honorable warriors of the past, harnessing their spirits in the Wandering Soul tree to bestow healing on allies and cripple foes while channeling the unrelenting rage of their time on the battlefield in their Battle Trance tree, losing all control for huge bonuses to ATK, Criticals, and self-preservation. [h2]Possessing Spirit[/h2] [previewyoutube=11Mq86Wl0yE;full][/previewyoutube] Possessing Spirit is one of the few skills that inflicts Charm Status on a foe, turning them to your side for a brief period of time, while leaving the Ronin weakened as a trade-off. [h2]Blade Blossom [/h2] [previewyoutube=MeI6zhUGggo;full][/previewyoutube] A versatile class, the Ronin's Blade Blossom heals and bestows Regen Status on all allies in a radius emanating from the Ronin. [h2]Battle Trance[/h2] [previewyoutube=4zchTfiTuiI;full][/previewyoutube] The bread and butter of the Ronin's Battle Trance tree, this skill inflicts a rage on the Ronin, restricting all skills for 3 turns to Basic Attacks, while bestowing huge bonuses to Critical Chance, Critical Power, and Attack. [h2]Enraging Field[/h2] [previewyoutube=igvcpbGslZw;full][/previewyoutube] A powerful trap skill, Enraging Field lays down a 3 tile square that inflicts Rage Status (preventing all but Basic Attacks) to those ending their turn within it.
