About this gameFull description from Steam
From the Sanguis of the Mater, the Stillae are born. Elite warriors who bare the last of their divinity's hope, you will lead them in a battle to save a dying world. Fight in tactical combat against the forces of Stasis and restore the flow of life! Your perfect plan Plan your next moves with dynamic turn-based combat, strategically triggering epic chains of events across the battlefield: Use Timeline Effects to speed up, delay or swap time position to impact turn order and outsmart your enemies. Play with your surroundings that can explode, ignite enemies, or block sight... changing the outcome of the battles. Leverage spatial effects like knock-backs, forced facings, flanking bonuses, and damage-over-time to dominate every encounter. Unlock a vast arsenal of abilities, each offering powerful synergies and deep build customization. Take on risks and progress Choose your own path and difficulty as you progress through the map. Take on high-risk, high-reward missions, head straight for boss encounters, or slow down to gather resources to increase your chance of success. All missions contribute to gradual progress and reflect the type of experience you decide. A Roguelite loop adapted to turn-based combat With each return, each playthrough, you carve new strength from failure and victory alike, unlocking forgotten powers and braving ever darker depths, where your greatest enemies await. The further away you venture toward the outer rim of the map, the harder the standard Missions become. Regain memories and customize your Stillae for the next round by changing their loadouts and names. A Crimson Rebellion In a world drained by the Purge, blood is defiance. Each drop of it paints the world in reds and blacks, as a reminder that life fights back. This is not just violence, it's a vivid rebellion in a pale, colorless world against those who would see it in Stasis forever.
