Tales of Orelia

Tales of Orelia is a game created by Lazy Tank Studios, a group of 22 students based at Southampton Solent University. There were strict pre-requisites for a file size of 50kb which meant a lot of optimizing of code and art assets was required.

The game takes inspiration from Zelda, Pokemon and other retro titles and features Pixel art, Quests,  Dungeons and a large explorable world set over 4 unique biomes.
