Combat System

In-Game background story

A war between humans and monsters was taking place not long ago to see which one was the ruler race. The Order of Light, founded for this same purpose, sent out groups of warriors to deal with the monsters, as this non-human race is believed to hold danger for mankind. The war ended with the mightiest of dragons being defeated by a knight and its fellow companions.

Gameplay

Another crusade is a brand new RPG with the battle system of an old classic. Enjoy exploration as a platformer game, but experience battles with a timed battle system, where strategy and timing is everything!

Fight as an old-style RPG. Use attacks, items, defense, and specials, all interwoven with the timed button press system. Everything you love is here, and more!

Attack & defend with timing. Every character will be able to use multiple weapons along the way, and each one has different timing you’ll have to master. Carefully study the attack animations and press the button at the pivotal moment. If your timing is decent, you’ll deal x1.5 damage, but if your time is perfect, you’ll deal twice the damage! 

Similarly, you’ll be able to time your inputs during enemy attacks, regardless of them being physical or magical, so watch carefully when the enemy is about to strike, if you have the skill, you might be able to block entirely ALL incoming attacks without taking a single hit! If you achieve great timing, you will take half the damage. Perfect timing will nullify it!
