Game developer Violoken, formerly an architect, unveiled their inaugural project titled “Little Mage”. This intriguing metroidvania incorporates aspects of action-RPGs, featuring elements like level progression, gear customization, skill points allocation, and character development. Akin to card games found in RPGs such as Final Fantasy IX, the game will also introduce a unique twist on card games – DARC (a term not specified here). Last week, a teaser trailer for the game was unveiled during the Future Games Show.
In the upcoming weeks, Violoken intends to start a Kickstarter campaign for their project. Although they guarantee the completion and release of the game regardless of the campaign’s success, they aspire to grow their team and accelerate production by recruiting additional staff. Given the developer’s current commitments – pursuing a PhD in Architecture and simultaneously working on the game – this expansion seems necessary. The game, titled Little Mage, is scheduled for release on Steam for PC and all major console platforms at an as-yet unspecified date in the future. Violoken has made it clear that they have put significant effort into ensuring that the game is entirely crafted by hand, with no AI-generated assets.
