🧬Welcome to the world of ēvolūTiō.🧬 A tactical strategy RPG that fuses striking 2D pixel art with immersive 3D environments. #IndieDev #TacticalRPG #PixelArt #UnrealEngine #furryart #IndieGameDev #fftactics

🎮 ShotDash is heading to GaMaYo! We’ll be showcasing ēvolūTiō and connecting with fellow devs, publishers, and players. Come say hi, check out our game! #GaMaYo #IndieDev #GameDev #ShotDash

🛠️ Devlog Drop | Tactical RPG 🎮 Start your journey in Waglin’s Dusty Tankard — where mercs drink, rumors swirl, and jobs await on the old board. 🍺⚔️ Not a hero yet. But the next contract might change that. #indiedev #tacticalrpg #gamedev #indiegame #fftactics

We've added distinct class icons above characters' heads, giving you instant recognition of their roles at a glance. You'll know exactly who’s who—no need to break focus. Plan your moves with confidence and dominate the battlefield! #TurnBasedThursday #TacticalRPG #IndieGamedev #GameDev #evolutio

From echo-locating ore veins to forging questionable weaponry in underground tunnels. Each species has its role. Each one hates each other just a little. Coalitions are fragile. Fights break out. #indiegames #NPCdesign #tacticalrpg #gamedev #furryart

First look at the Map Screen! Every pin marks a job, a story, or a fight waiting to happen. Navigate, plan, and choose your battles—your path through Waglin is yours to shape. Can’t wait to show how it evolves as you build your crew and make choices. #TacticalRPG #IndieDev #furryart #GameDev

Sorry I can't hear you over these sweet babies 💖 Tanguy is the so-called muscle of the operation, although handguns have limited value in the Astral Plane - he keeps it mostly for his own comfort (I might change the spelling to Tan Guy or Ton Gi to match the two-part names used by other dogfolk)

So awesome. Love to see Dynamic ui like this!
