Legends of Pixelia is an action role-playing game that combines retro pixelart with modern gameplay mechanics. Tired of left-clicking through hordes of brainless one-hit-KO enemies? Random dungeons, precise controls via gamepad (or keyboard) and a strong fighting game AI provide challenging encounters. Be prepared!


Early Access started, you can buy the game on itch.io:

• http://sima.itch.io/legendsop

When you buy the full version on itch.io, you get a Steam key once Legends of Pixelia is greenlit and available on Steam.


Local Multiplayer:







You can download/ play the demo version here (Win/ Mac/ Linux):

Did you enjoy the demo? Do you have great ideas on how to improve it? Well, go ahead and tell me about it.










All dungeon maps and all dungeon rooms are procedurally generated to offer a fresh experience on every run. Unlike in most roguelikes, you keep your progress in Legends of Pixelia even after death. So if you managed to beat dungeon 1 at least once, you will always be able to continue or restart your journey at dungeon 2 and so on.

At the current state of development there are two dungeons in Legends of Pixelia:

(1) The Crypt

An unholy place full of undeads. The Crypt has three stages, each one ending in a boss fight.

(2) Winged Cave

A cave inhabited mostly by flying enemies. As well as The Crypt, the Winged Cave has three stages and three bosses.

More dungeons will be added over the process of development. I'd love to release the final version of Legends of Pixelia with six or more dungeons and the typical "normal, nightmare, hell" or "new game+, new game++" mechanics that you know from other action RPGs. :-)






Your cute little pixelated heroes! I like the feeling of constant progress, that's why I decided to let the heroes in Legends of Pixelia be real ones: Your characters can level up, choose stat points, change equipment and they are saved and can be played over multiple gaming sessions.

You won't even lose progress when dying (just some EXP). Too easy for you? You have the option to create hardcore heroes - those will stay dead once they die.

At the current state of development there are three hero classes in Legends of Pixelia:

Knight

Noble fighter, fast attacks, easy combos
(X): Sky Slash
(B): Sword Blast
(Y): Shield Dash

Barbarian

Powerful fighter, strong skills, slow attacks
(X): Shockwave
(B): Throw Axe
(Y): Whirlwind

Paladin

Blessed fighter, ranged magic, crowd control
(X): Force Nova
(B): Spirit
(Y): Holy Cross

More hero classes will be added to the game over the process of development. Since four is the maximum number of players in multiplayer, at least four different hero classes would be nice for the final version of Legends of Pixelia to add some variety.






There are multiple ways of how to increase your hero's power in Legends of Pixelia. One of them is leveling up your hero and choosing stat points. There is a choice of 5 different stat “packages”:

• Melee: Increases your (X) skill damage and 2x your hit points
  
• Ranged: +(B) skill damage, +all damage, +heal per room
  
• Special: +(Y) skill damage, +all damage, +defense
  
• Offensive: +3x all damage
  
• Defensive: +hit points, +defense, +heal per room

Every time you put 5 stat points into the same package, you gain access to a passive skill:


Another way to build the stats of your hero is by choosing the right equipment and by upgrading your items. Every dungeon stage has a treasure room with a giant treasure chest inside of it:


When opening a big treasure chest, your hero has the choice to either pick one of two randomly generated items or to pick gold:


The blacksmith can upgrade your already equipped items in exchange for gold and item durability:


Can't wait to see how you folks out there build your hero. It will be interesting to see if some crazy theorycrafters will start playing around with the stats, trying to break the game's balance. :-)






A PvP match consists of multiple rounds. A round starts with all players alive, each one in a corner of a randomly generated room. The last surviving player or team gains one point and wins the round. The first player or team that has 5 points wins the match. The duration of a match with equally skilled players should be around 10 to 20 minutes.

There are three different PvP modes in Legends of Pixelia at the current state of development:

2 vs 2:


1 vs 1:


Death Match, 4 players FFA:


All matches in Versus mode are played with a set of preset characters, called champions. Champions have fixed stats and are balanced in power to provide a fair PvP experience, suitable for e-sports tournaments.
