[QUOTE="Abstruse, post: 7783613, member: 6669048"] The article linked at the bottom doesn't have a whole lot more information about the video game itself, [URL="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1096530/Solasta_Crown_of_the_Magister/"]but there's already a Steam page up[/URL]. It's the same animated trailer and dev blog plus some concept/promotional art, but the description does show what looks like a rough alpha build. I can't tell what engine they're using exactly, but if I had to guess from the one animated gif it's either Unreal or Unity (and definitely not something custom). It's framed like a tactical game similar to...I don't know if there's a term for them, but it's the throwback-style games inspired by the isometric RPGs but in full 3D environments and models and with a free-moving camera so they're not technically isometric RPGs. You know, Divinity: Original Sin and Pillars of Eternity and all those. This is also the first game by the company as far as I can tell (the company name of "Tactical Adventures" makes it very hard to search for them", but the CEO is Mathieu Girard, formerly of Amplitude Studios who did the Endless Space games (one of the many turn-based 4X sci-fi games that came out in the early/mid-10s).
