I mean it's a theme, but dying earth is a genre that encompasses Jack Vance's work as well as other novels like Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun - but yeah, Jack Vance is an inspiration!

damn they've figured it out quick, hide all the Hard To Be A God reference material
Yeah, so we've tried to walk a middle line between traditional JRPGs, and tactical games like FF: Tactics, Battle Brothers, Banner Saga etc... So there are two rows; front defends the back, but only ranged can attack from the back. Grid based like you say. Reposition takes a turn... etc.
maybe one day, but for now we're all about ENTROPY, BABY
Unless we decide to say "actually Dread Delusion was all just a dream had by this one random Entropy side character," which... I wouldn't put it past us
It's not! New universe π

Vagrant Story Aesthetics Module, Lesson 02 - THE UNDERCITY π§Pay attention to the elegance of the models π¨The sublimity of those pixel art textures... make notes because THERE WILL BE AN EXAM #lowpoly #pixelart #gamedev
Hi, I'm James βοΈ I made Dread Delusion along with DreadXP and a team of super talented, lovely people :) store.steampowered.com/app/1574240/...
Well in that case welcome to the Vagrant Story Aesthetics module Missing lectures will be penalised There will be exams
Whenever I need inspiration I can't help but boot up Vagrant Story... UGH THOSE PIXELS π¨ (If peeps are interested I'll make more of these, 'cos any excuse to pop that disc)
I HAD THAT it was awesome
tbh I think the Vagrant Story devs used some sort of psychic relay to divert 100% of Japan's latent brain power into the development of that game
