What will Sea Of Stars video game look like?
Sea of Stars, a turn-based RPG, serves as a prequel to the 2008 action platformer, The Messenger, both developed by Sabotage Studio. Despite differences in gameplay, the two games share a similar universe, interweaving concepts, ideas, and locations.
Story and gameplay
Sea of Stars has drawn comparisons to Chrono Trigger, a highly successful and influential ’90s RPG, boasting engaging combat, unrestricted moves, a rich narrative, and dynamic lighting.
Its story follows heroes Valere and Zale, who wields the power of the sun and moon to battle an alchemist. The game is integrated puzzle-solving elements and allows players to control up to six characters in turn-based combat.
The game is also inspired by RPGs like Illusion of Gaia, Breath of Fire, and Chrono Trigger. So it features boating, side quests, and combat mechanics centered on exploiting enemy weaknesses.
Art and music
The development team of Sea of Stars has been bolstered by the addition of Yasunori Mitsuda, who will lend his expertise to the game’s soundtrack. Best known as the primary composer for Chrono Trigger, Mitsuda’s talent will bring a familiar auditory experience to the game.
The presence of this renowned composer, combined with Sea of Stars’ promising features, makes it a potential standout success story in the Kickstarter realm.
So, until the Sea of Stars release date, let’s wait for more news. In the meantime, check out other upcoming titles like ATLAS FALLEN and HONKAI STAR RAIL.
