Eternal Steppe

Imagine a mix of The Witcher and Shogun Showdown - that's what I had in mind when designing this game.

Description

You play as a famous hunter in a fantasy-medieval world inspired by Central Asian mythology. Your goal is to defeat a powerful enemy, but before that, you need to prepare - gather intelligence, seek help from locals, and more. You have the freedom to choose how to complete quests and how to fight—on horseback or on foot. The decisions you make throughout your journey will affect the future of the people living in this land. Can you defeat the ancient evil and bring peace to the steppe?

Thanks!

A very promising start! The tutorial was good, but did not mention how to pull up the map (the icon was pretty obvious one i found it, but you may want to start.) Combat was pretty basic, could benefit form more complexity. 

Charge did not move you forward, and perhaps change the color of tiles an attack can hit from white to red when hovering would be a nice addition.  Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the detailed feedback! I'll try to implement your suggestions in the future update!

I'm trying to download it for Android but the thing is I can't.

A tab pops up with web address of "storage cloud" something, after that nothing really happens. Tbh I hope I get to play Steppe, I actually am looking for fun stuffs kind of like this game :3

I can't do anything with how game is being hosted by Itch. For me, downloading is working as expected, so I can only suggest to play in browser, it should work on Android device. Let me now if helps or not.

Is it possible to upload the Android build of your game on the app store? or perhaps some external source like MEGA or Drive public access? Just really prefer the apk file over playing on browser.

Sorry for late reply, I uploaded latest Android build to Google Drive. Hope it helps.

Feel free to share any feedback on the game after you finally play it!

Uhh about that...I can't really give any comment for the gameplay and features. Seems like the android version's broken, it's only pitch black when trying to run it but the menu BGM is definitely there I can hear it.

I am very sorry about this.

Oh and if this also helps for some fixes, there's no response upon touching the device screen even when it's pitch-black. Tested pressing anywhere for around 4 minutes.

Thanks for trying anyway. I double-checked Android version, it works on both devices that I have, and I already received feedback on it from others, so it seems your problem is rare, maybe device specific. One thing I can suggest - Androud build requires minimum 7.0 to run properly.

Hope you will have a chance to play it from PC.

Its great this game has a tutorial as the combat took some getting used to, but it was rewarding once I figured it out. The music is good, and I really like the art style. The quest log worked great. The mouse over tooltips helped a lot. Overall, it was a ton of fun. I can't wait for more!

Thank you for playing and detailed feedback!
