The bond that makes us strong

The bond that makes us strong

In this turn based RPG prototype, you as a couple that needs to go through a tunnel filled with rats to get home.

How to play

You play as Soraya and you are acompanied by Kelian. In battle, you need to work together to defeats your ennemies!

Each turn, the fighters will act one after the other. Each time someone plays, the wheel of events on the top right corner of the screen makes a 90° turn. The visible part of the wheel tells you what the current event is.

The event wheel can reinforce attacks, magic or bond creation

When it is your turn to act, you can:

• Attack: Perform a simple QTE to maximize your damage
• Use magic: In this universe, you need to link two persons to use magic. This means that your mana is shared and you won't be able to use your abilities if your partner is down.
• Protect yourselves and build your bond: Create a strong magic barrier that protects the both of you from enemies attacks and makes you grow closer. You will need to be two to use that.
• Use your bond: By using your bond, you can either revive an ally that has fallen in the battle or perform a very powerfull attack. It will either use 1/3 or the whole affinity gauge to use it.
