Tails of Fate (2025)

Fulfill this tale, as darkness swarms the fantasy lands of Fauna. Venture epic kingdoms and treacherous dungeons in a 2D action platformer, with Metroidvania elements in a hand-crafted pixel art world filled with souls-like boss fights, dungeon platforming, and dynamic enemy combat design.

Tails of Fate, the latest offering from game developers, invites players to embark on an adventurous journey through the beautiful, handcrafted world of Fauna. This expansive universe is inhabited by furry creatures and punctuated by mysterious ruins, majestic castles, ancient woodlands and even dark dungeons. The game’s central plot focuses on a trio of characters - Reynard, Varken, and Koal - as they traverse the universe in a heroic quest to rescue their realm from an impending doom.

A standout feature of Tails of Fate is the opportunity it presents to its players - engage in a gameplay that offers the freedom to switch between characters, each boasting its own distinct play styles and movesets. You could be charging into battle one minute, swinging your sword at foes, or be concealed in the shadows the next, silently taking down enemies. The combat system is exciting and adaptive, serving up a range of possibilities. From freezing foes with an ice storm to setting them ablaze, the game satisfactorily feeds the appetite of action-lovers.

The game further spices things up with over a hundred unique items that players can discover and fit into their armor. Aside from the vast selection of skills that players can acquire to modify their build and playstyle, they also have the chance to fight diverse enemies with dynamic AI. In addition, players are offered a chance to document every creature they encounter on their quest within an in-game compendium.

Tails of Fate ensures that players are never stuck in their journey by introducing a hub - the Tavern of Ursidae - that serves as a spot for seeking new quests, trading gossip, or celebrating victories. Other features include potion-mixing with an alchemist, equipment and trinkets forging, and epic boss battles rendered in traditional hand-drawn animations.

To underscore the gameplay, developers have incorporated harmonic music tracks that add flavor to the overall experience of Tails Of Fate. The hand-drawn pixel art environment merges perfectly with the interconnected metroidvania world and ensures zero loading times between interactions.

Complete with its thrilling playstyles, range of skills, dynamic combat system, and immersive gameplay, Tails of Fate presents an engaging journey for any who dare to take on the perishing fate of the Fauna universe.
