Radical Fish Games, the studio behind the popular indie action-RPG CrossCode, is back with a new project – Alabaster Dawn. The studio has released a visually stunning trailer for the upcoming game, showcasing their expertise in creating immersive 2.5D pixel art worlds that rival even the most elaborate 3D AAA titles. With promises of deep combat mechanics, challenging puzzles, and a captivating storyline, Alabaster Dawn aims to build on the success of its predecessor.
While details about the storyline of Alabaster Dawn are still scarce, it is evident that the game will offer a fresh and unique experience for players. Unlike CrossCode, which was set in a fictional MMORPG world, Alabaster Dawn follows the journey of a character named Juno as she sets out to restore a once-thriving world to its former glory. With Radical Fish Games touting a “massive adventure” spanning 30-60 hours of gameplay across seven distinct areas, players can expect to be immersed in a world filled with secrets and wonder.
Drawing inspiration from iconic action-RPG titles like Kingdom Hearts and Devil May Cry, Alabaster Dawn features a robust combat system that emphasizes player choice and strategy. Players can expect a wide range of combat options, including combos, ranged and melee attacks, and unique abilities. The game also boasts eight different weapons that can be customized with four elemental attributes, allowing for diverse playstyles and tactics. Additionally, players can enhance their weapons with gems to unlock powerful enchantments that provide a variety of bonuses in battle.
In addition to its engaging combat mechanics, Alabaster Dawn offers a unique progression system tied to the game’s cooking mechanic. Players can prepare various dishes at rest points to replenish their health and gain temporary buffs. Each cooking session increases the player’s Palate Level, enhancing the effects of future dishes. Furthermore, the game features diverse skill trees for each weapon, allowing players to tailor their playstyle to suit their preferences.
With its visually striking graphics, deep combat system, and captivating storyline, Alabaster Dawn is shaping up to be a worthy successor to CrossCode. While the game may not share the same universe as its predecessor, it retains the same level of quality and attention to detail that made CrossCode a fan favorite. As fans eagerly await more information about this exciting new title, one thing is certain – Radical Fish Games has once again raised the bar for indie action-RPGs.
