Legend of Moros is a retro-style RPG. While the combat is turn-based, there are a large number of differences that set this RPG apart from the rest. There are plenty of sidequests, a crafting system that uses parts from monsters, and an unusual twist on the standard combat formula.

Sidequest driven: Apart from the main story, other characters in the party may have requests for things that they would like to do. The player is free to choose whether or not to take these missions, but there are rewards for them, as well as helping to learn about the other character’s motivations.

Equipment: Equipment has been simplified. As opposed to many separate pieces of armor and multiple hand slots, characters each have a few different and unique weapons that do most of the modifications to statistics. In many games, weapons get progressively better as you make progress. In Legend of Moros, there are always benefits and drawbacks. A weapon may have a high critical hit rate, but poor defenses, for example. You can also equip one weapon mod (to change your basic attack's element, or to give a chance for a status effect), one seal (which lets your character use a skill they otherwise couldn't), and two accessories (status resistance, extra attack power, health regeneration, and so on).

Unique Combat: This game uses an unusual Stamina system. As opposed to games where spellcasters use MP and everyone else just attacking, Stamina is consumed by a character whenever they use a skill or spell.

But that’s just using another name, and this is still a turn-based game. How is that different?

Each character can set a certain Tactic; this allows them to gain Stamina whenever certain criteria are met. Which do you prefer: having your main healer regain Stamina whenever they heal someone, or whenever a party member takes damage? While each option covers multiple criteria (so you could have both of these), there are many different ways each character can be used. While RPGs have tended toward more of an action and reflexive skillset as time has gone on, I have tried to make this the epitomy of a strategy RPG.

There's a large and interesting cast of characters, and for the vast majority of the game, you can choose to have any four characters that you've found in the active party. If you don't like the main character, you can swap them out almost immediately.

There's a lot of other small changes, but I've made sure that the storyline and gameplay come first. I will have a demo out very soon, so do keep posted. I hope to sell the final product at $10 a copy for about 30 hours of gameplay. Thank you for reading, and I hope you like this idea!
