Scarlet Sword - New Zelda Inspired MMORPG

Cranktrain

Hey everyone, posting about a new MMORPG called Scarlet Sword. Remember those classic 2D Zelda games from the early 90's? Scarlet Sword is like those games, except online and multiplayer. Screenshoooots:

Full disclosure, I'm the guy that made the game! It's a little different from traditional MMORPG's, now, I love me a traditional MMORPG as much as the next chap, but I felt like I wanted to develop something that didn't have a level grind, and didn't have click-click-click type combat. So it's a bit of an experimental game, I started with the Zelda formula and built up from there.

So no, there's no levelling and trading, it's a game built on skill, if you're good enough to get to the chest and unlock the item, then you deserve to have it, if not, then you don't. I've no idea how this kind of approach will go down, people might absolutely hate that kind of thing, but it puts people on a level playing field. It's a fairly hard game too.

So there you go, I'm interested in any feedback, like I said, it's experimental and early days, but I've got big plans for the game. Biiiig plans. Go on, give it a go.
