About the game
SoulStream Saga: Chapter 1 is an old-school 2D pixel art JRPG with a Shared ATB (Active Time Battle) turn-based combat system built around timing and elemental mastery. A narrative-driven experience inspired by the classic JRPGs of the SNES and early PlayStation era.
Story
A brutal war has ravaged the capital city of Alestria. Rival factions, Mages and Alchemists, claim to fight for a better future, but many are simply using the conflict as an excuse for anarchy, while ordinary civilians pay the price.
Astarius Valcrest, a former Mage, believes unity is the only answer. He casts aside his title and leaves to study alchemy, returning years later with Alchaeon, a blade forged by his own hand and infused with both magic and alchemy. With it, he is determined to prove that unity, not division, will shape his city's future.
A century later, the world he fought for stands. But Princess Victoria Lockewell's father, the king, is descending into madness and threatening everything Astarius built. Desperate, she casts a forbidden incantation to revive him.
Combat System
Shared ATB (Active Time Battle) System: Designed to focus on timing, pressure, and smart decision making.
Casting and interrupts: Most actions take time to execute. Disrupt an enemy cast at the right moment and turn the tide of battle.
Elemental strategy: Both Astarius and his enemies have elemental weaknesses and resistances that can be exploited in battle. Astarius's elemental affinity is determined by his current stance, which shifts depending on the skills you choose.
Adaptive enemy behavior: Enemies evaluate the current situation every turn, reacting to heal, buff, disrupt, focus, assist teammates, and more, with a touch of unpredictability
Equipment and items: Utilize a variety of items in battle and equip various types of gear to better prepare yourself for what lies ahead.
