Maru Island
About
Welcome to Maru Island by Fanfare Games! This is an early look at the development of a new indie action RPG inspired by games like the Mana and Zelda series, with a dash of bullet hell. Dodge enemy attacks and projectiles while positioning yourself carefully to strike back. Explore a high fantasy world full of challenges to overcome as a team of three heroes. Currently seeking playtesters - just download the demo and tell me your thoughts in the comments or at [email protected]
I'm hoping to eventually assemble a small team for this project - if you are an artist, programmer, writer, etc who thinks you might be interested, contact me at [email protected]
THIS IS AN EARLY PROTOTYPE IN THE BEGINNING STAGES. There ain't a lot of game here yet, just a couple of basic rooms full of enemies to dispatch.
Currently Implemented:
- 1-3 player couch co-op (with full controller support)
- Sword Combat
- Spear Combat
- Basic enemies capable of melee and ranged attacks
- The beginnings of a complex follower AI system
- Several tracks of original music in a high fantasy orchestral style
Coming Soon:
- Bow and Arrow Combat

Longer Term Plans:
- Get gameplay working, tuned, and FUN before committing to art, story, world design, etc
- Magic System
- Player Inventory
- Radial Battle Menu for selecting items/spells
- Much, much, more!
