Sailing, cooking, fishing, stopping by a tavern to listen to a song or play the infamous tabletop game known as “Wheels”….every system has been designed to deliver an experience that pays respect to retro classics, while rethinking in some areas to offer a smooth and modernized experience. There are many ways to hang out in the world of Sea of Stars if you feel the need for a change of pace in your adventures. This incredible looking turn-based RPG is due out in 2023 and looks to be inspired by classic RPGs like Chrono Trigger. Sometimes epic, sometimes silly, and other times emotional, Sea of Stars does its RPG duty of exploring classic themes of adventure and friendship, while also being chock-full of the unexpected twists and events you’d expect from a Sabotage production. After having the pleasure of reviewing Chained Echoes, a Twitter user introduced me to a similar game that immediately took my attention, Sea of Stars. Dozens of original characters and story arcs will take you on a captivating journey. Swim, climb, vault, jump off or hoist up ledges as you traverse seamlessly through the world with a navigation system based on platformer expertise that breaks free from the classic bound-to-the-grid tileset movement. Along with timed hits, combat features multi-character combo attacks, boosting, and a strategic “locks” system offering options to play with different damage types in order to hinder enemies while they are channeling powerful attacks or spells, all in an immersive take on the genre no random encounters, no transitions to separate battlefields, and no grinding. All of our games taking place in a shared universe, we cannot wait to show you all the stories we can tell with the richness of the world and the sheer amount of characters that an RPG entails. To make a turn-based RPG that would pay homage to the greats of the 90’s, while bringing enough novelty to be its own thing. And sometimes, you will face an existential threat to all life in the sector, and get to save the world.Continuing on the Sabotage journey of developing games that blend retro aesthetics and modern game design, invigorated and motivated by The Messenger’s overwhelmingly positive response, it was time for the real, big challenge. Encounter bizarre and delightful alien races, trade with them or blow them up - the decision is yours. Find technology to upgrade your ship and gain allies to grow your flotilla. Choose your starship and blast off into the Infinite Space in search of fame and fortune! Travel from star to star, explore planets and discover strange lifeforms and artifacts left behind by ancient empires. The long-isolated Terran colony of Hope has discovered the secret of faster-than-light travel, and an age of interstellar adventure has begun. Sea of Stars begins in the Glory star system, in an area of space known as the Purple Void for its colorful nebular clouds. There is enough variety in items, aliens and special encounters that you will always discover something new - no two sessions play the same. It compresses a galaxy-spanning starship adventure into the space of a single sitting, but as the game world is randomly generated each time you play, you will keep coming back for more. Sea of Stars continues the Infinite Space series of games that defined the genre of short-form space roguelikes in Strange Adventures in Infinite Space (2001) and Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space (2005).
