Project Salvation (Demo)
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
How To Play:
Player 1 (black pieces) starts first. Click "End Turn" after your turn is finished.
Each player can either move a piece or attack with a piece once per turn for 'free'. Player can use skills as desired. At the end of the turn, if one of your pieces moved forward, you will gain 1 AP. Players cannot have more than 2 AP.
During your turn you can consume 1 AP for an additional action. However, a piece that has moved cannot move again. A piece that has attacked cannot attack again. To perform an additional action, just select the action as normal and you will be prompted to consume 1 AP.
A piece starts with max SP, and all SP is used when that piece uses a skill. A player has to wait for their SP to recharge before using the skill again. At the end of the turn, every unit gains 1 SP if they are not at max.
Pieces do 1 damage by default, except for Jaune, who does 2. When a unit's HP reaches 0, it is destroyed.
Character Skills:
Renee - Can pull a unit from 2-3 spaces away towards her (horizontal/vertical).
Mika - Can push a unit next to her 2 spaces away (horizontal/vertical).
Jaune - No active skill, but passively does 2 damage instead of 1.
Feng - Can move through enemies for 1 turn.
Julio - Can stun an enemy for 1 turn.
Celina - Can attack either 1 space away or 3 spaces away (the latter is considered a ranged attack). Her skill is also a ranged attack, which additionally hits to the left and right of the targeted space. Celina cannot use a ranged attack if she has moved.
Kai - Can do an attack that does 2 damage.
Dia - Can sacrifice 1 HP in order to gain 1 AP at the end of the turn (in addition to regular AP gain). Can still be activated at 1 HP, thus destroying herself.
Notes:
Right now this is a static game with hard-coded pieces, but the original concept was to have team-building and all sorts of fun combinations. There might be other strategic elements added and more opportunities for combo attacks. The system right now admittedly feels a bit restrictive, so it may be reworked.
Just a tip, Mika and Renee have very powerful positional skills that can turn the battle in your favor! My friend used Mika to push Jaune towards my units in order to one-shot them. Eventually I plan to add more units for team customization and will rebalance everything accordingly.
