TANKMAGE


Tankmage is a hardcore turn based battle gameboy color homebrew game inspired by my time in the duel pits in various oldschool mmos. Light on story, battle focused. You find yourself as a tankmage, armed with a sword, halberd, and a list of spells...

Your goal? To travel through multiple locations & battle unique enemies at each.
Sounds simple, what's the catch?
The battles require different tactics to overcome and if you lose, you're starting over, bud. You must defeat enemies consecutively to claim to be a legendary duelist.

You will lose. You will learn. You will get gud. You will WIN.

what a fun game. Love the atmosphere and graphics in between battles. Thank you!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!
Enemies can be strategically poisoned to prevent their healing!
This is a beautifully crafted masterpiece. Well done, killer sounds too, did you do them yourself? Kudos!
I did make the sounds in fx hammer, most of them are in my sfx1 pack for anyone to use in their games. Music was a bit tricky I can't lie.. 🤠
Pretty Killer! 10/10
