About

This is a DEMO of a game, not a full game, made in collaboration with Jyväskylä University of Applied Sciences.
The Valiant Attempt is a story-driven 3D action RPG set in a low-poly world on the brink of collapse.
You play as a displaced noble turned mercenary, wandering through the ruins of nations devoured by war. Alongside AI-driven companions, you’ll battle, explore, and make choices that may change what’s left of your world — or simply survive it.
Gameplay in The Valiant Attempt mixes real-time combat with reactive AI behavior.
Enemies coordinate with each other, allies respond to your actions, as enemies and you try to defeat each. Combat blends physical collisions, directional strikes, and projectile mechanics — every swing, block, or spell feels grounded in motion and timing.
Generations after a fallen empire’s monsters reshaped the realm, humanity’s own greed has reignited the cycle of conquest.
Your homeland lies divided, your family’s fate unknown, and rumors speak of an ancient artifact that could end — or escape — the endless war.
Whether it’s myth or salvation is yours to uncover.

Reviews
the game was free, and yet still overpriced.
That walking sound is atrocious. The settings menu doesn't even work, and the game is just one level.
Is this even a real game? I was done in less than 5 minutes... Went through it 3 times to make sure I wasn't missing something, clearly I wasn't and it was just a waste of time.

A valiant attempt to create a game was made, haha^^ The reason why the review count is so low is time. - the time it takes to notice that the game is not good is kinda 10 seconds - the time it takes to beat the game is 5 minutes - the time it takes to be able to review is 10 minutes So i had to keep the game open for a few more minutes to write this. And i did it for you, to make an informed decision to spend zero dollars or not. Very unpolished, very janky. And btw. mr creator, the reason why i gave it a chance is that at least it is not Ai slop.
One level, no respawning and a broken settings menu. What else can you ask for in a steam game. I feel like not even the developer play tested it. 1/10 would recommend!
Sonsuz bir savaşın pençesinde geçen bir dünyada, yapay zekâ destekli yoldaşlarınızla birlikte savaştığınız, konuştuğunuz ve hayatta kaldığınız düşük poligonlu bir 3D aksiyon RPG oyunu. Fizik tabanlı dövüşte ustalaşın, yoldaşlarınızla bağ kurun ve kurtarılmaya değer olanı keşfedin.
Prompted to use a controller when starting the game, immediately shown the letter E to interact. I actually like the top down low poly concept that's going on here, but this isn't even a demo. The settings button doesn't actually work, the controls are not the greatest, and its about 7 1/2min worth of "content" I think if this had a proper half-year of TLC it could be a decent game. I do not recommend picking this up, but I'm hoping that with a positive review that I instill inspiration and dedication to the dev(s).
