NOMIA is an isometric tactics game in development by one person. It's like Final Fantasy Tactics meets Slay the Spire.
Two heroes, two hands; no one should die the same way twice.
Your hand has two halves.
Your Actions persist between turns, but have charges and cooldowns.
Your Gambits are drawn from your deck each turn, and are discarded when played.
Both will change along your journey. Express your playstyle through both character building and deck building.
Your party has two heroes.
You'll always pick two at the start of each expedition -- a Mighty and a Magical.
The Mighty has more Actions.
The Magical has more Gambits.
Each has a unique deck of cards, as well as unique Memories that create powerful synergies.
Your foes have tells.
Enemy intents are shown on your turn, rewarding clever defense.
Intents are adjusted when you play cards, but not randomly; enemies have a goal in mind and will do their best to achieve it, allowing you to counterplay.
You can make enemies reconsider their intent by attacking them. A character can play tank for their partner if they're in a pinch.
Your path is winding.
Each of the five zones features unique enemies, loot, and terrain. Overcome tricky foes and powerful bosses as you grow in strength and complexity.
Discover the truth behind a mysterious disappearance as a stone-eating scourge devours your home.
Dive deep into the Dream, and play your cards well.
The second layer of Curses has been implemented!\nThis update also brings a number of assorted quality of life and battle improvements.
Every Memory that gives Block or defensive statuses now ticks before DoTs do.\nSeagull\'s Duality now truly inverts every status, even those whose opposites can\'t be gained in any other way.\nEnemy AOE indicators have been redrawn to be more readable.\nChronomancer enemies no longer act on the enemy turn.\nCertain bosses will now summon adds when they\'ve taken enough damage.
There\'s not really a theme to this update, because behind the scenes I\'ve been focused on writing.\nMore story content is coming soon!
