Oaths of Light is an adventure game inspired by modern and classic JRPGs, with a battle system mixing real-time and turn-based, choice and consequences systems, in a story-rich fantasy world.
• Engaging turn-based battles with real-time elements
The battle system is inspired by JRPG classics: turn-based battles with ordered turns and a twist. You have a five-second window during your turn to move, attack, use items, or cast skills. You can defend against enemy attacks by timing your blocks correctly, as long as the attacks are not from behind making positioning important.
• A beautiful, handcrafted world to explore with a fixed camera system
The world of Oaths of Light is a colorful and vibrant fantasy one, but also full of magic and mysteries. Accompany Eden as she embarks on a journey to the capital to participate in the ceremonies of the Oaths of Light. Many events will occur prior and following this journey that will changer her forever.
• Make choices and face their consequences
Throughout your journey, there will be occasions where you must make choices that will directly influence the storyline.
Oaths of Light is set in Meadran. A world still recovering from a recent war that opposed the kingdom of Meadran and the Elmeians, people of the forest. At the heart of this conflict: Magic. In fact, a new usage for magic as a source of energy was discovered. And both sides fearing what a bad usage of such power could lead to started a race for power until an armed conflict happened.
Our story takes place eleven years after the war ended. Scars from it are still fresh, and the winners, the Kingdom of Meadran, have established rules and strict control for the use of magic.
Everything begins at Reimber Village, the peaceful home of our main character.
A troubling repetitive dream, people disappearing, a mysterious stranger, and an unexpected journey to the kingdom's capital. This is how Eden's adventure begins.
