About the Game
Inspired by JRPG greats such as Final Fantasy, Suikoden, Chrono Trigger, and Phantasy Star. The game will feature a management hub, called Harm’s Way, where you will choose three heroes, from the many you collect, while equipping items and equipment to prepare for your journey ahead.
There will also be an overworld similar to many classic JRPGs, where you will explore hidden dungeons, rare bosses, and randomly appearing friends and foes.
Battle Chaser’s classic combat screen
The combat will feature classic turn-based battles with a unique two-tier mana system. Battle Screens look very dynamic and should play out as a great experience. Airship Syndicate is hitting every classic JRPG trope while giving some western flair. They are also featuring randomly generated dungeons loaded with Traps, puzzles, and other exciting secrets. You’ll also be able to harness your unique heroes abilities. Making proper party management a must.

Battle Chasers looks like one great game, the Kickstarter goal is $500,000, that will hopefully breath new life into the classic JRPGs. All while also inspiring more western developers to make more classics like so. If you would like to learn more about the game visit the Kickstarter page here: http://kck.st/1VKMk84.
