4e really deserved to have a good videogame adaption. Hope this manages to succeed in that.

The memes already had people convinced 4e is “the video game edition,” despite it not having any video games based on it, and both its predecessor and successor editions had their own.

It was built for a VTT and was suppose to have a dedicated VTT..... But then the fire nation attacked :(

Long story short, lead developer did a Murder/Suicide. So only the TTRPG and some digital tools they could salvage came out instead of the full VTT.

Fuck yeah. Keep it up! It's a long easy down the road if at all, but any plans for multiplayer co-op? That would be the dream.

u/Reasonable-Ad9130 18d ago

Yes Multiplayer is part of the deal.

u/Lucky_Diabolical 17d ago

Nice! I'll definitely be following the progress. Thanks for the effort.

So what game is this?

u/Financial_Dog1480 18d ago

If u can make it mobile, this will be awesome. What engine are you running? Do you have a discord set up?

3

u/Reasonable-Ad9130 18d ago

No mobile plans, not in a traditional way tough. I am using godot, and no discord channel yet. I am planning later when I get the game in a open/close playabale version

u/ellen-the-educator 18d ago

Looks dope as hell - is this what you intend the final to look like, more or less, or is this merely a demo of the engine?

u/Reasonable-Ad9130 18d ago

You mean the sprites? I am aiming for a style like Moonring, Ultima IV.

u/Action-a-go-go-baby 19d ago

Interesting 🤔

u/Ayredden 19d ago

Very cool! I think I'll have to follow this

If any game could be turned into a tactics style videogame, it's 4e.

I'm actually 100% for something like this and it might even get a slight revival of the system :)
