Infinite Mana
About
Infinite Mana is a 2.5D RPG with an emphasis on lore, exploration, and glitch mechanics set in the immense magickal world of Arukea. It has a unique design that pays tribute to classic RPGs from the 8/16-bit eras through its pixel art style and subtle nods in gameplay, but with an emphasis on modern game design and colorful visuals. There are many features including a large world to explore, a plethora of mini-games, a crafting and gathering system, and character customization through a unique class system called Guises.
Through your travels you may notice glitches. Or not. This is totally normal. As the Wanderer, you may even discover a way to use these glitches to your advantage.
Features
The world of Arukea is a diverse collection of the dreams of many different races, each fighting with magic and technology for their beliefs in an endless struggle for power. The Zircadian Empire owns the North, while the Free Cities fight to remain free in the South. An ocean known as Elazul is covered with a mist, barring any crossing to the Far West for over a millennium. A Colossus sits upon the Edge of the World, staring down into a dark void that none have returned from. A Blight appears from the High North, consuming all as it expands.
You take the role of the Wanderer, an amnesiac nobody on a journey to find answers and to recover your lost memories. You may in fact think of this as nothing more than a clean slate, and set out on your own adventures meeting new allies and traversing through treacherous dungeons in search of treasure or to aid or even hinder others in the world. Some choices you make in the game change how the game plays out. Be wary that fate lurks around every corner, however.
