Sigilfarer: Play the New Demo & Support on Kickstarter!
Some of you might remember our previous demo, but as our game has evolved, we wanted to ensure that the demo reflects the latest mechanics and the fun of the current version. Dive in and experience the changes firsthand! But that's not all!
[previewyoutube=DWxSxq2CtPM;full][previewyoutube=neZSwNz5VGs;full][/previewyoutube][/previewyoutube] In the first 48 hours, there are special deals that only last a certain amount of time, like Early Bird pledges or an exclusive set of in-game clothing for your character that won't be available after this period! In addition to the game, our Kickstarter campaign offers a variety of digital and physical goods, available only during the campaign. These include a digital soundtrack, an in-game caravan skin, and even dice trays and dice sets!
We'd love to hear your thoughts on the demo, so please let us know what you think. Join our Discord community, and follow us on X and TikTok to stay updated. If you enjoy the demo, it would mean the world to us if you could spread the word about Sigilfarer. Thank you!

A new DLC is now OUT! The Wild Walker Class
The DLC is available here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3240690/Zoria_Age_of_Shattering__Wild_Walker_Class/?beta=0
The Wild Walker is a master of the natural world, channelling the raw forces of nature to protect, destroy, and empower. Wild Walkers can summon ferocious spirit animals to fight alongside them, turning the tide of battle with their relentless ferocity. Beyond their bond with natures creatures, the Wild Walker commands the elements themselves. With a flick, they can summon devastating storms, calling lightning bolts to strike down their enemies or stirring up tempestuous winds to hinder their foes. Trait Ability Nature's Blessing When the Wild Walker is in the party, the health regenerated after a combat is finished is increased by 10%. Resting Bonus Incantations and whispers spoken around the campfire will increase the resistance to Fire, Water and Nature by 25 for 15 minutes. This is a DPS/Support class that can deal physical and magical damage, and can also buff and light-heal its allies.
Anshar Publishing 2024 Publisher Sale starts later today on Steam! It's a fantastic opportunity to check out other games from our Publisher, and get some really good deals. Zoria will be available at an all-time low price, so if you'd like to recommend it to your friend, now's a great moment to do that! The offer ends on November 27. We prepared some pretty amazing Bundles for this occasion too, with timeless classics such as Baldur's Gate I & II and Planescape: Torment; with Anshar Publishing's pride Gamedec; and some hand-picked games we thought you might like as well, including Frozenheim, First Dwarf, and Sovereign Syndicate.
We're a part of the Turn-Based Carnival on Steam! The event starts this evening, and will last until November 20th. It's a perfect opportunity to grab the best bargains on turn-based games ahead of the Winter Sale, so check it out! Until next time, /Zoria Team

Patch 1.1.2 is Live Now!
How's your journey through Zoria going? We hope you're having a blast! We've been hard at work to bring you some exciting improvements and fixes. Ready to dive into the details?
Gear Durability: Gear durability is now adjusted based on the chosen game difficulty. On Easy and Normal difficulties, your gear will break less often. Save Synchronization: We've fixed potential save-synchronization issues related to follower stats when changing squad members. Quest Interface/Dialogue: Added shortcuts for selecting quest entries and provided full keyboard control for the dialogue interface. Combat Review Screen: Fixed XP gain and level-up information to ensure it syncs correctly with actual follower data. Compendium: Fixed missing compendium images for Lizardman. Voiceover: Prevented the low-high-low transition of background sounds during dialogues that have voice-over. New Consumable Types: [IMPORTANT] Introduced new consumable types that replace blocking follower traits such as Demolition, Engineering, Dispel, Conjuration, and Disarm.

Patch 1.1.2 Highlights
Gear Durability: Gear durability is now adjusted based on the chosen game difficulty. On Easy and Normal difficulties, your gear will break less often. Save Synchronization: We've fixed potential save-synchronization issues related to follower stats when changing squad members. Quest Interface/Dialogue: Added shortcuts for selecting quest entries and provided full keyboard control for the dialogue interface. Combat Review Screen: Fixed XP gain and level-up information to ensure it syncs correctly with actual follower data. Compendium: Fixed missing compendium images for Lizardman. Voiceover: Prevented the low-high-low transition of background sounds during dialogues that have voice-over. New Consumable Types: [IMPORTANT] Introduced new consumable types that replace blocking follower traits such as Demolition, Engineering, Dispel, Conjuration, and Disarm. These kits are now available for purchase from merchants around the Zoria world
We'd be over the moon if you left a review after playing Zoria

Patch 1.1 is out now! The most requested improvements are here
How have you been? On our side it's pretty much as always - hard at work, adding new stuff, improving old and fixing things that weren't intended to happen in the first place. We've been continuously working on Zoria not only up to its launch, but also after it came out. Guided by your thoughts, comments, reviews and suggestions, we pushed update after update to reach Zoria's full potential. Honestly? What we come with today feels like a new era for our game. It's not the same title as it's been on March 7th. But, before we move on, make sure to reach the end of the article - there's a message from our publisher who has some really great news for you So, without further ado, let's jump into the update. Here are the most significant changes that we implemented since Zoria's launch back in March: New Commander classes Added Bard and Necromancer
Inventory System added auto-sort functionality for the main inventory Greatly improved Inventory Management and storage space - Added individual resources-based inventories for Consumables, Materials, Ingredients, and Crafting Items to no longer consume inventory space - Only Weapons, Armors, Trinkets and Blueprints will require inventory slots - All items can still be sold/traded as well as used everywhere in crafting/combat - Potions are now sorted by effect and effect magnitude instead of level Added 3 new Skill Point rewards at levels 17, 20 and 25 We introduced "Hoofs For Hire" service in select locations throughout Rithvale Area. The service will allow the player to move quickly between these destinations. The "Hoofs For Hire" service is also being introduced in a couple of locations in Bilnaram Hills, making travelling easier. Added Priestess of Amaldir world shrines in multiple areas that clear Curses and Diseases. Attack of Opportunity increase change of triggering to 30% as well as range of trigger to 5 meters Greatly improved flow of combat system through the added 7 meters of free movement at the start of the characters turn. This change offers greater flexibility in avoiding Line-of-Sight issues and generally improves combat experience flow by allowing the use of AP abilities while also moving in the same turn. Free movement range can be partially expended during the players turn over multiple movement actions so long the character still has Action Points left. Each Action Point consumed for movement will increase the free movement range by an additional 7 meters, governed by the same consumption mechanic. Localization - fixed multiple issues with Chinese localization - added gear/weapon name localization for Chinese Added support for Steam Cloud Saves And here's the fuller list of a current patch:
(besides adding two new commander classes) Added Helmet visibility toggle for followers Added Burrow auto-rest return and screen notification event. Followers that finish resting will automatically return to idle state Improved Arena System - repeatable challenge with chest rewards including guaranteed fragments of different rarities based on challenge difficulty Improved gear repair at Merchants: - follower group gear repair - support for repairing inventory items Fixed resting effect for quest tasks ("Welcome to the Outpost" [Keep] and "The Forgotten Camp" [The Shrieking Pass]) Fixed check mark for some quest tasks after completing the corresponding quest Fixed many other small issues in various scenes Multiple typos fixes We posted Patch Notes regularly, so if there is something in particular you wanted to check, we highly recommend looking into those. BUT, if there is still something you can see in Zoria that needs a bit of tinkering, then please let us know about it by using this form [link]. By filling out the form, we will learn firsthand about any potential issues, and it will be much easier for us to track and solve them. Thank you! And if there isn't, then... buy the game! And if you have it alreadym then
It's the best way for us to evaluate what works and what could be improved. We're continuously working on making Zoria as great as it can be. It also helps with algorithm gods.

Patch 1.0.4 is out now! Huge combat system improvements, class changes and more
We've been reading your suggestions, comments and reviews. Huge thanks to everyone who shared their thoughts with us. This update is huge, really. With that, we hope it covers the most frequent issues and significantly improve your experience with Zoria. Please enjoy!
Rithvale Area fixed a few environmental issues with floating objects; Ruvan Village Elder NPC renamed to reflect her name; fixed Commoner pathing; disabled warning in the Effigy creatures area when leaving for Thonargond; graverobbers are now appearing as intended during the quest and not before; Removed the Elder of Ruvan from the day-night timetable, to make her accessible at all times; Update Dragon to level 10 and updated some of its stats to make the fight more relevant. Rithvale Outpost fixed double Old-Bean Truff NPC. Rithvale Keep fixed Level 2 upgrade wall that was missing collision; added missing outline to NPC. Daeg Marastir fixed an issue that was preventing the Combat Tutorial to trigger; streamlined the flow, removed some fights, adjusted damage and hit points for enemies to make the area easier to navigate for new players. Yarnigan Mine fixed an edge case where, if you did not deliver Lost Miners quest but delivered Ther Mine quest you would be locked out of delivering Lost Miners as the NPC will disappear. Forest of Nurdundas added a new merchant. The Shrieking Pass Gerwin is now properly recruited. Bilnaram Hills Added info on the map regarding Wizard being necessary for Bilnaram Cellar Thonargond fixed an issue with the dome being accessible in a certain area. Grimwood Crypt Improved rooftop hide event near certain buildings. Thonargond Citadel, Thonargond Seat of Ancestors Fixed level of pickup gear recipes from auto Level to Level 14
Increase Physical/Magical Damage Weapon stats for 2 handed items (from 1.5x to 2.5x versus one handed items) Merchant System Fixed option to Buy/Sell recipes (gear, cooking, alchemy) Quest Marks fixed issue with color of quest mark (yellow instead of blue) when a merchant had also a rumor entry. Changed default level of audio settings to match the reset values. World Shrines that buff Stamina will now give the corresponding HP as well. Added missing Voice Over for Amaldir. Added Priestess of Amaldir world shrines in multiple areas that clear Curses and Diseases. Multiple typos are fixed in quest entries, UI and game story/lore.
Sentinel Class - increase damage for Backbreaker, Vigilant Strike, Igniting Blade. Banner of Might will give a buff on 20% Intellect as well beside Agility and Strength Kingsman Class - increased damage for some abilities and increased range for King's Fire ability Necromancer Class - increased damage and reduced cost for certain abilities. Infernal Edict damage and hit points adjusted Priest - Healing Well is now placed next in the Combat Queue thus providing the healing effect right after the end of turn of the current Priest character.
During exploration Combat Focus will only deplete to a certain level based on the game difficulty (Easy 35, Normal - 20, Hard 15, Unfair - 10) Enemy abilities max range was lowered to values that match the max range of follower abilities Removed the 4th Action Point bonus for Boss characters when below 30% health (Easy Difficulty). For all other difficulty options elite and boss character will receive the 3rd Action Point respectively the 4th Action Point for at slightly lower health levels. Attack of Opportunity increase change of triggering to 30% as well as range of trigger to 5 meters Greatly improved flow of combat system through the added 7 meters of free movement at the start of the characters turn. This change offers greater flexibility in avoiding Line-of-Sight issues and generally improves combat experience flow by allowing the use of AP abilities while also moving in the same turn. Free movement range can be partially expended during the players turn over multiple movement actions so long the character still has Action Points left. Each Action Point consumed for movement will increase the free movement range by an additional 7 meters, governed by the same consumption mechanic. The changes in this patch make for a comprehensive update to the combat system. This update is intended not only to improve on certain aspects that have been reported but also make the combat flow richer and offer a better experience overall.

Patch 1.0.1 is out now!
We're deeply grateful for the support you've shown us since the release of our game. It brings us immense joy to see so many of you diving into the world of Zoria and embarking on this adventure we put so much work in. Your feedback has been invaluable to us. Each comment, suggestion, and critique is a stepping stone that helps us improve and grow. We truly appreciate your active participation in making Zoria the best it can be.
As a small development team, these reviews are more than just ratings for us. They provide us with insights into what works, what doesn't, and what could be improved. They help us understand your perspective better and enable us to make necessary adjustments to enhance your overall experience. With that said, let's get to the Patch Notes and things we fixed!
We are aware that some players encounter a soft-lock combat bug at the end of the combat. We have tested intensively the fix in patch 1.0.1 and believe that the issue is resolved. We will keep testing for any potential issues, please let us know if you encounter this issue again. Using Wizard Ice Wall ability during combat no longer causes a soft-lock in case of a character dying near it; Ability buffs are properly removed from the UI after the end of a combat; Enemies in Chamber of the Forgotten now match players level; You no longer have to be left forgotten in Chamber of the Forgotten. You will be able to exit location after completing the quest; Lancer class resting bonus (gear repair) no longer requires items to be broken; Fixed problems with various quest not completing or disappearing from the quest log as expected; You can now complete the Lost recipe quest; Fixed some localization issues; Slightly increased distance between followers in formation; Fixed issue with binding of E/Q keyboard keys. We work on improving support for more key customization feature for future patches.
We're already working on a bigger patch which will address the quality of life improvements based on the community feedback and reviews. If you happen to come across any bugs, please let us know about it by using this form [link]. By filling out the form, we will learn firsthand about any potential issues and it will be much easier for us to track and solve them. Thank you!

A glimpse into the Enemies in Zoria
Creating the world can be hard and complicated, but fortunately, to us it was also fun Today we wanted to offer you a glimpse into the creatures you'll surely encounter while playing Zoria: Age of Shattering. While there is plenty to choose from, with fantasy classics such as skeletons, dragons or ghosts, we picked a bunch that we personally like the most, so it's kind of random [table noborder=1] [tr] [td]
[/td] [td]Let's start with the terrifying Cave Claw Crawlers. As their name suggests, these grotesque creatures dwell in caves and other dark places. Their exoskeleton is a fortress of resilience, blending seamlessly into the darkness, making them masters of stealth and surprise. Armed with large, sharp blades, they are a force to be reckoned with, combining brute force with speed and agility.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]
[/td] [td]Next, we have the Water Elementals. These entities, despite their aquatic namesake, are often found roaming the land. Their origin is a mystery, but it's believed they are born from concentrated magic energy, animating the prevailing element in their vicinity. They are solitary creatures, aggressively engaging in combat when approached. The older they are, the more powerful they become, making every encounter a thrilling challenge.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]
[/td] [td]Then there are the Gargoyles, magical constructs crafted by the wizards of old. At first glance, they may seem like ordinary statues, but get too close, and their true nature is revealed. These ancient guardians are carved from enchanted stone, and their cold, crystalline eyes gleam with an unnatural glow. They are fiercely loyal to their creators, and in battle, they channel their magical essence into devastating attacks.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]
[/td] [td]Last but not least, we have the Ancestor Guardians. These ancient creatures belong to the civilization of the Ancestors. Equipped with powerful weapons and armor, they are highly resilient and capable of dealing extensive damage with their magic attacks. They are sentient beings, capable of communicating in the common tongue, and are best avoided if possible.[/td] [/tr] [/table] Whether you're battling a Water Elemental or sneaking past a Cave Claw Crawler, make sure to stay alert and apply tactics! Now, gear up and prepare - Zoria: Age of Shattering launches on March 7, 2024! Stay tuned for more updates and get ready for an epic adventure this March!

In Zoria: Age of Shattering, a classic tactical RPG with fluid turn-based combat, you can protect your characters by investing points in Stamina or giving them appropriate equipment, which will boost their Armor and Magic Armor stats.
Stamina will also influence the characters' Initiative. The higher the Initiative (displayed on-screen), the faster your character will act during an encounter. Pay attention to the queue, as it may help you decide to attack which foe will be the most beneficial for you.
The higher this stat is, the bigger the chance you'll deal extra damage during the fight. Agility or Intelligence influences Crit Chance depending on which is your character's dominant (it will be marked in stats, don't worry ).
In Zoria, Hit Chance is influenced by the level difference between the character and the enemy. The higher the level of an enemy compared to the character, the lower the chance to hit it.

Major Improvements! Monthly Changelog
We're excited to share with you what's changed within this month in Zoria: Age of Shattering. We've implemented some elements you haven't seen before, as well as further improved features already in the game. Let's jump into it!
Say goodbye to long, drawn-out battles. With our new speed button, you can now control the pace of your encounters. This feature adds a new level of strategy and enjoyment to our turn-based combat system. Plus, we've added a handy marker on the turn queue, so you'll always know when the turn ends.
Knowledge is power, and our new combat review feature gives you plenty of it. After each battle, you'll receive a summary, complete with EXP gained and any additional bonuses. And if you take on a new enemy, your journal will get updated with a new entry, which will be shown on-screen.
We implemented a partial voice over that really breathes life into our characters. Now, characters will say the beginning of their dialogue lines, which adds a new layer of depth and personality. Hearing the voices of characters complements the storytelling aspect of Zoria, and makes them more real and dynamic. Soon, we'll show you what the voice overs actually sound like, so stay tuned!
Navigation just got a whole lot easier. We added checkpoints to the map and made it more user-friendly, so you can focus on the adventure at hand.
Finding and managing your equipment now should be a breeze. We touched up the equipment tab for better usability - new items will now be clearly marked, so you'll never miss a new addition to your inventory.
We worked on the overall quality of graphics in Zoria. From on-screen fonts and effects to the look of characters in and outside of cutscenes - the edges are visibly sharper. We also improved the journal with quests, making it more readable and easier to use.
We hope you enjoy these updates as much as we enjoyed creating them.Follow us on Twitter and join our Discord if you haven't already. Let's stay in touch! Until next time, Tiny Trinket Games

We hope you enjoy these updates as much as we enjoyed creating them.Follow us on Twitter and join our Discord if you haven't already. Let's stay in touch! Until next time, Tiny Trinket Games

Stats - how to build your hero?
In Zoria: Age of Shattering, a classic tactical RPG, you can develop the character as you like. However, maintaining a balance and distributing stat points when leveling up according to the character's class will make the game more enjoyable.
If you'd like to play a warrior-type character in Zoria, it'd be best to invest your points in Strength (if you're planning to be in the first line or carry a shield) or Agility. Agility better suits more nimble heroes or those attacking from a distance). Casters, on the other hand, will benefit the most from Agility and, of course, Intellect, which will influence their Mana pool and Crit Chance. High Intellect means your character can cast more spells, and they will hit your enemies harder!
Stamina will increase your character's health. It'll be extremely important, no matter what type of hero you'll be playing as, especially at the beginning of the game! Zoria can be challenging, so there's no point in making it harder, right? Follow us on Twitter and join our Discord if you haven't already. Let's stay in touch! Until next time, Tiny Trinket Games

Release Date and Price Announcement
First off, a huge thank you for your patience and ongoing support. We're super excited to let you know that our much-anticipated game, Zoria: Age of Shattering, is set to officially launch on March 7th, 2024. [previewyoutube=6-_NIf8ELl4;full][/previewyoutube] Okay, so here's the situation. We're a team of three developers. We showed the demo to different gaming events, organized closed on-site playtests, listened to an external QA team and after gathering all this feedback we came to the conclusion that what we have isn't what we can hand over to you in the next month. Zoria: Age of Shattering is an ambitious project, considering the scale of our team. We would say it's very ambitious, as we are reaching nearly 300k words in the game. An extensive story is great, but we also have a ready to-do list of things that require our work. We can certainly confirm that the game is playable and we have achieved content-lock. However, the content itself is only half the success. UX, your comfort of playing, and a great focus on eliminating as many bugs and blockers as possible is our priority at the moment. In short, we want to give you a game that we're proud of. We believe that you understand the situation and that the additional weeks of waiting will be worth it. We have prepared 30+ hours of content for you, and the best is still waiting for the reveal! Also, you have time to finish Baldur's Gate 3, there are no excuses in March! Since we gathered you here, we'll put all the cards out on the table and reveal the price as well. Zoria: Age of Shattering will be available for purchase at $24.99.

How to train a dragon? Asking for a friend.
We understand that you are eagerly anticipating the Full Release date. Before we discuss the updates, we want to address this topic. We promise to announce the release date soon, but we're taking our time to ensure that we deliver a polished product that takes into account all factors that could impact the launch. We appreciate your patience during this process, and we are working hard to make sure that the final product is worth the wait. Here are the latest updates to excite you for Zoria's upcoming release. Check out what we've got for you in this Monthly Changelog #9!
We are in the final stretch of development before the release of Zoria: Age of Shattering. At this point, we are heavily focused on quality assurance testing throughout the entire game. This process is essential to optimize the game and eliminate bugs or glitches. In addition, we have spent the past month testing and refining some exciting new features that we have yet to reveal, such as follower management and outpost upgrades. We can't wait for you to try them out!
A metaphor of us fighting bugs.
We have finally achieved a significant milestone in game development - the content lock. This is an important step where we decide that we won't add any more content to the game. This decision allows us to focus solely on refining and polishing the existing content. As you may know, it was not an easy decision because when you are creating something, there is always an inner critic that keeps telling you that you could do it better or differently. Many of you can probably relate to that feeling.
My inner critic would never say "perfect"
Recently, we have been working on creating a story-based introduction scene for the game. The goal is to introduce you to the game effortlessly despite the complicated circumstances you may find yourself in. We're really pleased with the progress so far, and we hope you will enjoy it too! As a sneak peek, here's a preview of what's in store:
We added a couple of events during which you will be able to interact with a dragon. Beware! Despite its rather adorable demeanor, dragons found in the wild can and will hurt you.
Our publishing team had a lot of fun while creating short and funny videos that were inspired by Zoria. You can easily find them on Anshar Publishing's TikTok and YouTube channels. We believe that you may find them amusing and maybe even inspiring enough to create your own Zoria cosplay!
As always, we appreciate your continuous support Your enthusiasm for Zoria has been our driving force, and we aim to deliver a game that exceeds your expectations. Together, we'll embark on an unforgettable journey, and can't wait to share it with you! Follow us on X/Twitter and join our Discord

Take a step into the mysterious world of Zoria!
We're thrilled to announce that during our Wishlist Challenge, with your help, we surpassed over 3000 new Wishlists! As promised, we're revealing a never-before-heard track from the Zoria: Age of Shattering. [previewyoutube=HGbyFSLCeHI;full][/previewyoutube] This track perfectly captures the spirit of exploration integral to our game. It's atmospheric, layered with a wide array of instruments that take you straight into the heart of Zoria. As you listen, you will feel yourself navigating through the dark, damp caves of the game and hear the sounds of goblins and skeletons echoing in the distance. The delicate bells ring like dripping water or shimmering crystals, creating an immersive soundscape that blurs the line between reality and fantasy. But above all, this track speaks of the promise of treasure deep beneath rock and sand, the thrill of the unknown, and the irresistible illusion that the risk is worth the reward.

Our talk with Game Rant
[ 2023-09-13 12:23:49 CET ] [ Original post ]
Greetings, Commanders!
Game Rant recently conducted an exclusive interview with one-third of Tiny Trinket Games Stefan Nitescu, where he delved into the unique mechanics and systems of Zoria.
Stefan discussed how the team has consciously avoided common RPG tropes, which they've come to dislike as veteran gamers themselves. What might be interesting to those of you, who know the game already, Stefan shed some light on mechanics, that are yet to be introduced in the full game.
To read the full interview, head over to Game Rant's website [here].
Stay tuned for more updates and insights!
Best,
Tiny Trinket Games

About our Release Date
We have some important news about the release of Zoria: Age of Shattering. Over the past few weeks, we've been rigorously QA testing the game to ensure it's ready for release. However, our latest tests indicate that the game will not meet our satisfaction level by October 5th. Therefore, we must delay the launch by a few weeks. We understand that this may be disappointing news, but we believe that taking this extra time to test and refine the game will ultimately result in a better experience for all of us. We appreciate your patience and understanding. Your anticipation and excitement for the game have been a constant source of motivation for us, and we're incredibly grateful for your support.
For the past few weeks, we've been collaborating with an external QA team, who have reported over 280 issues to us. While most of these are minor, our small team of three people, including one programmer handling most of the issues (poor Gabi), finds this number too significant to be sure that by October 5th, we will be able to deliver a game that we can confidently deem as a finished product. Therefore, our primary focus for the upcoming days will be intensive QA testing to determine precisely how many more weeks of additional bug fixing we require.
In addition to bug fixing, we're also working on enhancing the game's balance to provide you with a smooth experience. It involves careful adjustment of character and item stats and giving a second look at all the effects, etc. Ultimately, thorough testing is the key to delivering a game that meets your expectations and our high standards. We still need a bit more time to finalize the game and accurately determine a new release date. Stay tuned! We are doing our best to make it worth the wait.
We recently launched a new demo, and we strongly encourage you to play it and share your feedback. A questionnaire will be available after you finish the demo, and we'd love to hear your thoughts. In the upcoming weeks, our representatives will attend PAX West in Seattle and WASD in London. We'll demonstrate the demo and gather last-minute feedback before we wrap up production. We are dedicated to regularly updating you on our progress. You can always find us on Discord or Twitter/X. Please keep an eye out for further news. Thank you for your continuous support and understanding. We're confident that the wait will be worth it. Until next time, Tiny Trinket Games

A New Demo Awaits!
[ 2023-08-23 14:01:19 CET ] [ Original post ]
Commanders!
We're excited to announce that as you're reading this, a new demo of Zoria: Age of Shattering is now available This demo will give you a glimpse of the complexity that we committed to despite the size of our development team ('Dream big,' they said. 'It'll be fun,' they said! ).
The new demo will take you to the very beginning of a brand new adventure, where you'll get to make your character using a character creator before accepting your first quest. If you played the previous demo, you'll surely notice changes in the UI and character models - we changed and improved them.
We strongly encourage you to try the new demo and share your feedback. A questionnaire will be available after you finish the demo, and we'd love to hear your thoughts!
In the upcoming weeks, our representatives will attend various events and conferences: Gamescom (starting today!), PAX West and WASD in September. We'll demonstrate the demo and gather last-minute feedback before we wrap up production.
You can always find us on Discord or Twitter/X. Please keep an eye out for further news!
Thank you for your continuous support
Until next time,

Ready, Set, Upgrade! Monthly Changelog #8
We're back with some updates to get you even more excited for Zoria's upcoming release. Check out what we've got for you in this Monthly Changelog #8!
After consultations with an experienced and inspiring creative game director, we decided to redesign parts of the game to make it more captivating for newcomers while retaining a fair amount of references to veterans who played the Prologue and the Demo. In other words don't worry if you haven't played any of these; we made sure that the game will be a great stand-alone experience and that you'll embark on a wonderful adventure that will gradually unfold in front of you.
We've completed the Outposts! With Outpost System fully implemented, you'll be able to rest and recover your followers in the cozy "Moon Flower" Burrow, unleash your inner alchemist with the Black Cauldron, and visit Blacksmith's workshop for the finest of items. The "Lucky Dog" Inn will be your go-to place for thrilling quests and finding loyal companions to join your adventures. And yes, there will be an upgrade system that will allow you to enhance your outpost, but we're still figuring out the economy so that the rewards would be sufficient and satisfying not broken.
We consider the highly anticipated Character Creator system as a "feature complete," giving you a lot of elements to play with to customize your in-game persona. You'll be able to choose your gender, experiment with various hairstyles (including facial hair, such as beards and mustaches), and mix and match cloth and armor pieces to create your unique look. Tailor your character's body shape and proportions, and enhance their appearance with a wide range of tattoos, scars, makeup, and more.
We're just 70 days away from the big launch of our game! Our team is hard at work, polishing every aspect of the game to make sure everything runs smoothly. Your enthusiasm for Zoria have been our driving force, and we're aiming to deliver a game that exceeds your expectations. Together, we'll embark on an unforgettable journey, and we can't wait to share it with you!

Full release on October 5th. Monthly Changelog #7
Before we get to the changelog, let's share with you the latest decision we made.
Due to the congested September release schedule, we chose to delay the release date of Zoria. Titles such as Baldur's Gate 3, Starfield, and Lies of P, to name just a few, release around the same period. While some of you have pointed it out as we announced our release date, we couldn't put Zoria, an indie game, and other AAA production titles, in the same league (but thanks to those of you who did, we took it as a huge compliment!). Long story short, we feel that shifting our release date would give Zoria the attention and exposure it deserves. That said, we settled that October 5th will be the best day to release Zoria: Age of Shattering. It's just a few days later than our initial release date, but we believe this time will provide a space between releases needed for Zoria to shine through. Additionally, since every single day at this point will be extremely precious, it will give us extra time to polish the game.
Now, let's see what's changed within the past month!
One of the significant improvements we've made in this category is optimizing asset resource management, which results in a lower memory footprint at runtime, ensuring smoother gameplay. We also enhanced the customization options. Firstly, we improved support for colors, shader material modifications, and emissive materials. We even added a color picker! Secondly, we added a dynamic size and scale control of the human body. Thanks to that feature, you'll be able to adjust body proportions and create different shapes of faces, making each character one-of-a-kind. Furthermore, we implemented a wide array of styling features, such as various hairstyles, faces, makeup options, eyebrows, facial hair, etc., to ensure characters will come in a wide variety. Lastly, we incorporated numerous new item models that can be used for character design, providing even more customization options. We started creating new NPCs using the updated character creator system, bringing more life and diversity to the game.
We developed a useful tool for creating icons for in-game items. We're using it to create icons for all weapons and armor pieces in the inventory. We plan on using it to create portraits for heroes made with Character Creator as well, but we're still working on that Besides that, we're reworking and adjusting the outposts to improve clarity and make them more intuitive. Some new areas and dungeons have also emerged from the shadows, but we cannot talk too much about them to avoid spoiling anything. We're also waiting for the last two background music pieces, and Zoria's soundtrack will be complete!

Skinning NPCs. Monthly Changelog #6
This month we focused on localization support to prepare Zoria for implementing different languages as the development progresses. We want to make the game more accessible and not meant for English speakers only. Localization is always a complicated topic in game dev, and it's especially laborious and time-consuming in RPG games, where there's plenty of text. We'll keep you updated on that In the meantime, which languages would you like Zoria to be in? Let us know in the comments below!
We've made some changes to the levels at which you gain abilities. You'll be able to access more powerful abilities faster, making gameplay even more fun and engaging. We've also been working on a major update to our in-house character creator, which we use for NPCs and game characters. This update will allow us to create far more diverse characters than initially planned, making the game world feel even more alive and immersive. We might add some of these changes to the Player Character Creator as well
Now, let's talk about some of the new content we've been working on. We've been busy implementing new armor sets for you to discover and equip. Would you like to see some sketches?
Finally, we've been working on the end-game content. Unfortunately, the details must stay secret for now since hinting anything could become a spoiler. Just know we can't wait for you to experience it! That's all for now, but stay tuned for more updates! Follow us on Twitter and Facebook, and join our Discord

Exotic armor, hiding trees, and the Lucky Dog Inn. Monthly Changelog #5
We're excited to share the latest update for Zoria: Age of Shattering. Our team has been working non-stop to bring you changes and improvements that'll make your gaming experience even better. This month we'd like to share what's new regarding camera & control systems, armor, outpost systems, and more! So, let's dive right in and see what's new
The camera will now have a smoother motion and auto-rotation toward the movement direction. Plus, we've added alternative keyboard movement controls for those who prefer this control style to the mouse-click-only control. The camera collision system will work better now, and a new see-through camera obstruction feature will ensure an unobstructed view. Trees will no longer block your view! They will now disappear and won't block your sight
Armor changes will be visible on the 3D models of the main character and followers! We've also categorized current armor sets into Light, Medium, Hardened, and Heavy, as well as by rarity: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Exotic, and Epic. We'll add even more armor designs in future updates.
We've added a couple of new outposts in the game, e.g., the "Lucky Dog Inn" and the "Moon Flower Burrow." The "Lucky Dog Inn" will be your go-to spot for quests and recruiting followers, while the "Moon Flower Burrow" will be perfect for resting and recovering
There's a new system that will let you choose the difficulty of the game. This will affect things like Enemy HP, Enemy stats influencing damage and resistances, and Enemy abilities. We decided on three classic levels of gameplay difficulty: Easy, Normal, and Hard. Pick whichever suits you best! Additionally, Neles Zoria's Producer and Quest Writer - is currently representing Tiny Trinket games at the Reboot Develop Blue in Dubrovnik, meeting with other game developers, exchanging experiences, and of course, introducing Zoria to a new public
Keep your fingers crossed for Neles, and as always, follow Zoria on Twitter and Facebook, and join the Discord server to make sure you get all the latest updates and news from the world of Zoria!

Changing plans
After careful consideration, we came to the conclusion that Zoria doesn't need Early Access, because we're ready to make a Full Release this September. Let's fill you in on which arguments helped us make this decision.
We've been working on Zoria tirelessly for some time now. There are surely creators among you that know the feeling (or rather a need) of polishing your project until you think it's perfect. The truth is, the inner critic might never tell you you got there We evaluated our latest milestone and realized that Zoria is so close to being completed that putting it on Early Access would only water down our progress. Launching Zoria in EA would mean launching an incomplete game for a few months when in reality, we only need a few months to finish the game.
Can be treated as a metaphor for us being close to finishing the game. Also, a nice screenshot.
Early Access has its benefits, don't get us wrong - that's why we considered it in the first place. Zoria has been in development for some time now, and we were eager to finally show it to you. But games that benefit from EA are hugely the ones that provide service. From the very beginning, we designed Zoria to be a complete, single-player adventure. We want you to be able to fully immerse yourself in the fantasy world of Zoria without the need to turn a blind eye to unpolished elements. And finally, the argument that appealed to us the most.
By launching Zoria in Early Access, we'd need to change our focus from finishing the game to hotfixing and bugfixing. Instead, we can stay on track and instead release the game sooner. In fact, we made an honest calculation and decided that Zoria: Age of Shattering will launch on September 19th, 2023. We got excited to get your reactions and feedback to Zoria ASAP, as it'd be an invaluable source of information and a boost of encouragement. But you can still do that by following us on Twitter and Facebook or joining our Discord server At the end of the day, we're working with playtesters as well as with members of our wonderful community (thank you!) to make the most magical experience possible.
Thank you all for your continuous support. See you soon in the next update! Tiny Trinket Games

Time to make friends and put on shiny armor. Monthly Changelog #4
We are slowly getting to the point where we're polishing the game and getting it ready for you to play This month we were not only ticking off things from our "to-do list" but also working closely with playtesters and polishing the game based on their reactions and feedback.
Anyway, what's changed outside of typical bug fixing, UI adjusting, and polishing already implemented features?
We want the resting mechanic to play an important role in Zoria's gameplay. On the one hand, because of the strategic point of view and how it benefits the party. The player can organize camps to heal wounded followers or exchange them for new ones. On the other hand, because of the bonds the player can establish with various characters. Since Zoria is a roleplaying game, we implemented a dialogue system during the rest, enabling the player to learn more about the followers they're traveling with, get to know them better, and decide who they like best.
Moreover, we designed some quests that can be triggered by setting up the camp, so beware! It could be wildlife or bandits attacking or a follower coming up to you and saying, "we need to talk." It's hard to say which one is worse
Some quest dialogue would benefit from more dynamic camera action. We improved close-ups to make it look and feel better
The game treats the follower as an NPC unless they get recruited to the party. The player can interact with NPC followers and see them roaming in the world when they're out of duty. Additionally, followers' models will respond in real-time to the player changing their gear and weapons.
Speaking of which, we got our characters some new armor and equipment designs! We're integrating them with the character creator to give players more options to customize their hero. We're still planning on adding even more armor in the future, not only for fashion's sake
There is some exciting news coming soon Stay tuned! If you want to connect with the community, you can join Zoria's Discord here:

We want the resting mechanic to play an important role in Zoria's gameplay. On the one hand, because of the strategic point of view and how it benefits the party. The player can organize camps to heal wounded followers or exchange them for new ones. On the other hand, because of the bonds the player can establish with various characters. Since Zoria is a roleplaying game, we implemented a dialogue system during the rest, enabling the player to learn more about the followers they're traveling with, get to know them better, and decide who they like best.
Moreover, we designed some quests that can be triggered by setting up the camp, so beware! It could be wildlife or bandits attacking or a follower coming up to you and saying, "we need to talk." It's hard to say which one is worse
A more dynamic camera during dialogue
Some quest dialogue would benefit from more dynamic camera action. We improved close-ups to make it look and feel better
Follower's status changes when they're not an active member of the party
The game treats the follower as an NPC unless they get recruited to the party. The player can interact with NPC followers and see them roaming in the world when they're out of duty. Additionally, followers' models will respond in real-time to the player changing their gear and weapons.
New equipment
Speaking of which, we got our characters some new armor and equipment designs! We're integrating them with the character creator to give players more options to customize their hero. We're still planning on adding even more armor in the future, not only for fashion's sake
There is some exciting news coming soon Stay tuned! If you want to connect with the community, you can join Zoria's Discord here:

Heroes get homesick, too. They just rarely talk about it. Monthly Changelog #3
Another month, another changelog. Are you curious about what weve been working on lately? You wouldnt believe how much Zoria has changed! Get yourself a mug, sit back, and enjoy
Some of you have heard this name before. Nulbarak is a location known to those who had a chance to play the Kickstarter Demo We decided to implement an improved version of this place not only to reward all of our Backers but also to give players a choice within the gameplay. You see, weve made some changes to Zorias story, and visiting Nulbarak will be a result of your in-game decisions, so you may or may not arrive at that destination
"Quick, look at this painting! It looks just like home." *vases shattering* "I guess you really miss your home, don't you?"
Open areas now have a fully working day-night cycle; The world will act accordingly to the time of the day! Some events will occur only at certain times. This should help make the game more alive and realistic
5 am morning stroll through the woods. If mother knew...
Were implementing a new, more aesthetically pleasing interface. The previous one was good, but this one will be even better, and we think itll reflect Zorias current level of design more. Fun fact: its an eleventh iteration, made entirely in-house, tailored to Zorias needs

Dev Diary #9 Why are we making an RPG? Because we love it.
[ 2023-02-08 14:26:12 CET ] [ Original post ]
Making an RPG game is a huge challenge, regardless of the studio's size. To us it involves creating an immersive world, meaningful stories, and interesting, multi-dimensional characters.
We spent years playing, or rather consuming games before we decided to start making our own. We're talking about thousands of hours spent gaming ever since childhood or the young teenage era. Can you guess which games influenced us the most?
Fane's absolute favorite, with more than 3,000 hours spent in-game, World of Warcraft has a stylized, cartoonish look but obviously made for a mature audience. In WoW crafting, animations, effects, and events, everything has its place and works beautifully. Garrisons' system from Warlords of Draenor expansion is a bit of a crowd-dividing topic (some love it, some absolutely hate it), but it sprouted an idea of outpost management that could've been done better.
Another game that approached outpost management in a different but interesting way was XCOM. In this tactical, turn-based RPG, you come back from a mission and can manage sections of your base and order tasks for your party members. You can tend to their wounds if they get wounded or exhausted, or let them stay and rest while you choose another character to go with you to the next mission.
When it comes to the gameplay, we were absolutely enchanted by Heroes 3, which we played almost religiously on LAN parties back in the day One of the first concepts for Zoria: Age of Shattering actually had a lot of similarities to the Might and Magic title! However, as our team improved, the concept evolved to more temporary solutions.
What we liked the most about Heroes 3 was the tempo of the game and the fact that it wasn't hard to jump into, especially in comparison to games such as Divinity: Original Sin, which has a very high entry threshold, endless tutorials, and extremely lengthy encounters. Don't get us wrong, it's a wonderful game, but we want to avoid daunting complexity. That said, we aim somewhere between these two not too simple, but not over-complicated.
Neles fell in love with Morrowind's world-building and world's diversity reflected through the quests and dialogues a charm he can't find in Bethesda's later installments to the Elder Scrolls franchise. The sense of wandering around a vast and divergent open world was astounding. It gave the feeling of being a part of something big and something alive; Being a hero to the story that matters.
Witcher 3 also showed how important it makes us feel when our choices matter. And we don't mean million possible endings, but rather small things that we do in one mission that come around much later in the game as a result of our actions.
Lastly, we all agree that when it comes to art direction, we wanted something stylized, in places even cartoonish, but not crossing the line of childish. The art style of games such as WoW, Divinity: Original Sin, or Diablo 2 (but not 3! ) has this perfect balance that we love looking at. It's just a style that appeals to us the most
Which games influenced you the most? Let us know in the comments below or over our Discord
Until next time,

Luring Dragons, Spawning Elementals, Counting Skulls. Monthly Changelog #2
Working on Zoria: Age of Shattering is an exciting but also challenging experience. The ideas are endless, and expectations - yours and ours - are high. This month we introduced many valuable changes to the game. Are you ready? Welcome to Monthly Changelog #2! steamhappy
A party ready to explore each corner. Do I smell... chest?!
Rithvale had a complete makeover. We needed to rebuild it to match it with our current level of quality. Rithvale will become your homebase and your safe haven you'll long for after a long journey. Players will now have quests available (both sidequests and main quests), making it a more lively area worth revisiting at different stages of the game. Do you remember Shrieking Pass? Some of you might have seen it in the demo from 2 years ago. We felt this location could be more interesting, so we decided to revisit it, with some new places and adventures steamhappy Now it is not only an area where the story takes place but also a part of the story on its own.
This is totally how we rebuilt our locations. We evacuate everyone, and then we lure a dragon and four Trolls to raze the city to the ground. Easy-peasy.
RPG players are most likely familiar with this system. Certain characters will be able to strike an enemy unit in combat as it moves next to them. It can be a very satisfying move that'll prevent your opponents from running away from you and has a significant chance to finish them off without the need to chase them around the map (and possibly get into a trap).
These water elementals have yet to realize that they should be running away.
Character Creator was a Strech Goal on Kickstarter that we unfortunatelly didn't reached BUT we decided to add it after all. steammocking We believe that creating your own character in an RPG adds a lot of value to a roleplaying aspect of the game. Whether you like to adjust a gender or look to your own for a better immersion, play a hero of your dreams or make it an honor to play as a female character whenever possible - we've got you. Once again, huge thanks to everyone who supported us in the Kickstarter campaign!steamhappy
There was a crowd waiting to witness your glory, but you took too long to pick up that perfect shade of hair (even though you can't see it through the helmet).
Do you remember how last time we asked you to vote in a IndieDB's Indie of the Year poll...? We got the 5th place!!! steamhappy We knew there were a lot of you out there, yet getting this high in the rank exceeded our expectations! Thank you so much for voting! It wouldn't be possible without your helpsteamhappy

Dev Diary #8 - Characters, classes and team composition
I have gathered you here today to tell you about your upcoming duties and the companions with whom you will undertake them. The times are hard, and the quest is challenging, so you must be extremely cautious when selecting who you will befriend.
In Zoria, ten different specializations of warriors may join our team. You, as a commander, will be out of this category, serving more as a support but in a unique way. Two characters will represent each class with their own story, motivations, and wits. Your followers are critical to the success of your mission. Whether recruited through the Inn or from various quests, your companions represent your most significant investment and resource since your adventure is squad-based, and only good use of the squad system can ensure success.
For most of the exploration, you will control the main character in real time, with the squad following every step you take. However, during the combat, every character will be ready to carry out your order. Let's have a closer look at some of the classes in Zoria.
In addition to the above, the game will also include the following:
As you've probably already guessed, only a good combination of your companions' classes can bring success on the battlefield. A team of rangers alone would be spectacular and look great on defensive walls, while their effectiveness would be very low in a close encounter.
There is another reason why you should be especially careful in choosing teammates. In the world of Zoria, there are objects that only a character with the right abilities can interact with. Hence, Battle Clerics can interact with Shrines of Nerdalye to replenish the party's health, and Wizard can create magical bridges over which the whole team can safely cross to the other side. ------------------ Concluding my story, I hope it has made you look forward to Zoria even more. The year 2023 is very close, and in a few months, you will see the result of our dream to create a full-blooded RPG. In the meantime, we wish you a peaceful holiday and a happy new year!

What's new in the world of Zoria? Monthly changelog.
[ 2022-12-05 16:07:07 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello commanders!
It's been almost a month and a half since our Kickstarter, and during this time, we're working up a sweat to deliver the game that will give you a ton of fun. We want to introduce you to what we are currently developing and show you some new screenshots. We hope you enjoy them and whet your appetite for more!
But before we get to the main course, we'd like to ask you to vote for Zoria in IndieDB's Indie of the Year poll. There are many of you out there, and we believe that together we will rank high in this competition for indie game lovers.
You can cast a vote on our IndieDB page >>here<<
Now, let's move on with the changelog.
Nightwarden Class
As some of you may recall, one of the secret goals of the Kickstarter campaign was reaching 50%, and it unlocked a new class - fearless and violent Nightwarden. First, we had some rough ideas on how this class should act on the battlefield, and during the last month, we managed to finish the profile of this class.
Nightwardens will use fire on the battlefield because this is the most effective deterring of monsters. Having Nightwarden in your team will significantly increase the group morale, as Nightwardens fear no death and can teach their teammates how to act the same. On top of that, Nightwardens know that the night is short; therefore, they must act quickly.
Day-night cycle
Well, what would be the point of the existence of Nightwardens if there were no night, wasn't it? That's why we've been spending the last few weeks polishing the day and night cycle in the world of Zoria, which will not only limit the amount of sunlight but also affect certain events and behaviors at specific times of the day.
And remember, the world of Zoria is not a safe enough place during the day. I dread to think how it will be at night.
Lake Mannor
A castle in the middle of rocky mountains, a fisherman's hut, fog hovering over the lake, and rumors of a secret lurking beneath the surface of this reservoir. Don't forget to chat with a hunter who stays in the area, as he will have something to say about the place.
New enemy - Troll
What is it - it has two legs, pointy ears, smells horrible, and you wouldn't entrust your pet to its care? No, it's not a green-clad boy rescuing a princess. It's a nasty troll lurking for fresh meat, inattentively straying near his lair. Just look at this monstrosity. It's probably time to show him that treating poor animals like this doesn't seem right.
That's all for today, and we're back to making the game. Let us know what you think of the above features, and don't forget to join our Discord - it's a smug place for RPG & coffee lovers (but if you are more of a tea person, you are more than welcome too.)
Stay tuned,
Zoria Team

Dev Diary #6 - Religion
We believe it will be interesting to talk more about this; religion is important to us as people, therefore why not dig into this a little bit? There are three main churches:
Generally, Monotheistic, with smaller figures involved in the mythos, established religion within Elion and extended with varying influence into most of the Uram continent. Gods: - Torath - God of Light, believed to carry the sun on his back across the sky and responsible for bringing light, heat, and general well-being to the citizen of Zoria. - Torhuz God-like figure, brother of Torath and polar opposite. Believed to dwell in the depths of the night and fight an eternal battle with Torath for control of the skies. With the dual-moon specific of Zoria, two eclipses are happening, one incomplete and one that completely covers the sun, believed to be instances of a great war between the two brothers and bad omens for the people. The stars are believed to be spirits sent by Torath to light the night sky and prevent Torhuz from bringing eternal darkness to the world.
Polytheistic, widespread throughout the Uram continent. Based on ancient humanoid gods said to inhabit Vrukmanar, the volcanic landmass east of Uram. Gods: Athys - Goddess of Light, governor and chief of all gods (patron saint of Priests and Battle Clerics) Dhases - God of Prosperity (patron saint of Bards, Merchants, and Traders) Garom- God of War and Fire(patron saint of Mercenaries Battle Clerics and Lancers) Amaldir - God of Earth and Nature, Husband of Mei-Devi(patron saint of Rangers, Farmers, Commoners, and Hunters) Niala - Goddess of Magic and Dance (patron saint of Wizards and Mages < Difference between the two would be that Wizard is MALE only name for the magic practitioner, while Sorceress is the FEMALE equivalent. Mage is Neutral; both males and females can use this term to identify themselves as magic practitioners. Thedara - Goddess of Protection and Constructions, daughter of Athys and Chaos (patron saint of Sentinels and Kingsmen) Mei-Devi - Goddess of Patience, the Waters and the Night, sister of Han-Jhora (patron saint of Thiefs and Sailors) Mira - Goddess of Passion and Love (patron saint of Bard) Han-Jhora - God of the Dead and Ruler of the Underworld, brother of Mei-Devi
Animist religion is based on the belief that all living creatures and even inanimate objects are inhabited by the spirit of Zoria, a spirit that is responsible for all the magic within the world. Which church would you join? Subjectively, The Temple of Karne speaks to us very loudly! Until the next time! Team Zoria

Hey everyone!
Zoria lore is huge! Today we want to focus on the topic of religion, which, of course, is present in the game's world.
We believe it will be interesting to talk more about this; religion is important to us as people, therefore why not dig into this a little bit? There are three main churches:
1. The Church of Torath, also known as The Church Zorias Light
Generally, Monotheistic, with smaller figures involved in the mythos, established religion within Elion and extended with varying influence into most of the Uram continent. Gods: - Torath - God of Light, believed to carry the sun on his back across the sky and responsible for bringing light, heat, and general well-being to the citizen of Zoria. - Torhuz God-like figure, brother of Torath and polar opposite.

The stars are believed to be spirits sent by Torath to light the night sky and prevent Torhuz from bringing eternal darkness to the world.
2. The Church of the 9 Gods
Polytheistic, widespread throughout the Uram continent. Based on ancient humanoid gods said to inhabit Vrukmanar, the volcanic landmass east of Uram. Gods: Athys - Goddess of Light, governor and chief of all gods (patron saint of Priests and Battle Clerics) Dhases - God of Prosperity (patron saint of Bards, Merchants, and Traders) Garom- God of War and Fire(patron saint of Mercenaries Battle Clerics and Lancers) Amaldir - God of Earth and Nature, Husband of Mei-Devi(patron saint of Rangers, Farmers, Commoners, and Hunters) Niala - Goddess of Magic and Dance (patron saint of Wizards and Mages < Difference between the two would be that Wizard is MALE only name for the magic practitioner, while Sorceress is the FEMALE equivalent. Mage is Neutral; both males and females can use this term to identify themselves as magic practitioners. Thedara - Goddess of Protection and Constructions, daughter of Athys and Chaos (patron saint of Sentinels and Kingsmen) Mei-Devi - Goddess of Patience, the Waters and the Night, sister of Han-Jhora (patron saint of Thiefs and Sailors) Mira - Goddess of Passion and Love (patron saint of Bard) Han-Jhora - God of the Dead and Ruler of the Underworld, brother of Mei-Devi
3. The Temple of Karne
Animist religion is based on the belief that all living creatures and even inanimate objects are inhabited by the spirit of Zoria, a spirit that is responsible for all the magic within the world. Which church would you join? Subjectively, The Temple of Karne speaks to us very loudly! Until the next time! Team Zoria

Dev Diary #5 Combat in Zoria
In your team, you will have characters of different classes, each of which will have a tree of 16 skills, from which you will choose 9, giving you the chance to try other builds and tactics. For example, the Wizard class can pick all the water-based spells, fire-based spells, or a mix of them. The same Wizard class can follow the route of AoE or single target damage or favor a more protection-oriented build. Abilities vary from single target to effect over time and area of effect. Some include summoning, spawning area-of-effect items on the battlefield, or using line-of-sight and blocking enemies' paths. Your protagonist, the Commander, Andar Witherell, is a special class on its own and can either go the route of damage dealer, shield buffer, or healer, with a lot of flexibility in its skills. When completing a team, the critical thing to pay attention to is class synergy. Classes can protect, heal, or empower other characters, and creative use of special abilities (taunts and control) can provide exciting encounters.
There are several combat-specific resources: Action Points, Focus, and Mana/Energy. Action Points: Each character or enemy character has two Action Points. You can use these points for moving (both APs), moving and abilities use (1AP + 1AP), or if in a favorable position, abilities only (2APs). Remember that some high-impact abilities cost more than others and have a 2AP cost. Focus: Each class generates Focus by using other abilities or by the use of a potion. Focus is always 0 at the beginning of combat and can reach a maximum of 100. Mana/Energy: This set of resources is directly connected to the Intellect and Agility stats and can be replenished by resting or using potions.
Zoria is not using a traditional grid-based system, thus making the combat a bit more fluid. You will still have battlefield obstacles that can hinder you or your enemy. When observing the environment during the battle, you need to pay attention to using line-of-sight - your character cannot fire while another party member or enemy is in front of him. The same is true for the enemies - they will move into position to attack a character if they are out of sight. Also, initiating combat near an environment trap can lead to the creative use of such traps to aid in battle. But, even if the scales of victory start tipping to you, you can't be sure of your success. The combat is turn-based, but the world around continues to work on the real-time system. Enemies patrolling nearby can join the action if they get within range, so it can turn simple situations into really complicated fights, depending on the area.
After this description, we hope you fancy a little skirmish. That's why we invite you to test our free demo and share any feedback you have. Until the next one!

Hello commanders!
In today's Dev Diary, we'll cover what many tactical RPG fans like best: combat. We designed it to be dynamic, fluid, and inviting to engage. But how did we achieve that? Enjoy the read below!
Classes
In your team, you will have characters of different classes, each of which will have a tree of 16 skills, from which you will choose 9, giving you the chance to try other builds and tactics. For example, the Wizard class can pick all the water-based spells, fire-based spells, or a mix of them. The same Wizard class can follow the route of AoE or single target damage or favor a more protection-oriented build. Abilities vary from single target to effect over time and area of effect. Some include summoning, spawning area-of-effect items on the battlefield, or using line-of-sight and blocking enemies' paths. Your protagonist, the Commander, Andar Witherell, is a special class on its own and can either go the route of damage dealer, shield buffer, or healer, with a lot of flexibility in its skills. When completing a team, the critical thing to pay attention to is class synergy. Classes can protect, heal, or empower other characters, and creative use of special abilities (taunts and control) can provide exciting encounters.
Resources
There are several combat-specific resources: Action Points, Focus, and Mana/Energy. Action Points: Each character or enemy character has two Action Points. You can use these points for moving (both APs), moving and abilities use (1AP + 1AP), or if in a favorable position, abilities only (2APs).

Focus is always 0 at the beginning of combat and can reach a maximum of 100. Mana/Energy: This set of resources is directly connected to the Intellect and Agility stats and can be replenished by resting or using potions.
Battlefield
Zoria is not using a traditional grid-based system, thus making the combat a bit more fluid. You will still have battlefield obstacles that can hinder you or your enemy. When observing the environment during the battle, you need to pay attention to using line-of-sight - your character cannot fire while another party member or enemy is in front of him.

Dev Diary #4 - Let's talk a bit more about The Outpost
[ 2022-09-27 13:40:22 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello adventurers!
Let's talk more about one of the crucial mechanics in Zoria: Age of Shattering; The Outpost.
As we already know, The Outpost is a place where you rest, craft, recruit or rid of de-buffs, to name just a few. But let's get into the details!
Relevant to this article are two aspects of exploration and combat:
Fatigue: is a stat that increases with time spent out in the wilds and is also affected by how many encounters a follower has fought through. The more fatigue a character accumulates, the less effective that character gets, with stats decreasing a little at first and significantly as fatigue gets too high levels.
Supplies: The resting mechanic is the best way to recover followers' health and clear certain effects.
Supplies: Resting out in the field takes time and requires supplies, as followers cant go around hungry. Supplies can be found during exploration but can also be obtained through cooking. It is advised to take enough supplies from the Outpost when leaving for an adventure.
One aspect of the game we havent talked a lot about is the base and base management: The Outpost and all the outpost systems. Because exploration, questing, and combat are just a part of the game, what truly differentiates Zoria: Age of Shattering from other CRPG titles is how base and character management is integrated into the game.
Characters:
The player is not limited to a set of companions that will follow throughout the game, as it is usually the case, but is free to recruit many, either from the world, through quests, or from different locations within the game. The only limit to the player is the party size, but the Barracks inside the outpost act as a home to all the followers that are not in the current party.
Every time the player leaves the Outpost, he is free to choose whatever party composition he wants, limited only to what followers are available at that point. This means players can have a party suited to their playstyle or to the places they want to visit dark dungeons full of traps where Thieves can come in handy or long-forgotten ruins where Mages or Lancers can make exploration easier.
The only constant in the party is the Captain; all the other characters can be switched in or out of the party every time the player returns to the Outpost.
The Barracks:
The heart of the Follower Management system is the place where you can equip your troops with the newest weapons you crafted, the most powerful potions, and special items found in the dungeons they conquered. You can also see on this screen your Followers level, stats, status, and the abilities they have unlocked.
The Burrow:
All that adventuring and fighting will increase troops' fatigue, and with fatigue increasing, everything else goes down, including Follower stats and combat efficiency. The best way to recover your troops is to send them to the Moon Flower BURROW for some rest actually its the only way. This means not all your followers will be available all the time; some will need a longer stay than others, depending on their Fatigue level and wounds received during their time adventuring.
Besides its strictly functional role, the Moon Flower Burrows manager, Madame Sybilla is an exotic character with some interesting stories and quests.
The Inn:
The Lucky Dog Inn serves many purposes in the Outpost, being as much a utility building as it is a quest hub and a place to meet interesting characters.
The utility aspect of the Inn refers to cooking, as the Inn is the place where all the cooking takes place in the Outpost. Sure, cooking can also be done on the road, but sometimes its preferable to do that in the Outpost where all the materials gathered are stored.
Another very important factor related to the Inn is recruiting. Since recruiting is done in more than one way, and some quests, depending on the outcome, can offer the option to recruit a character, the Inn is not the only way to expand a players roster of followers, but it can still be quite an effective one.
The Black Cauldron:
As is the case with cooking, alchemy can also be performed on the road for a quick healing potion to get out of trouble but having access to all the materials gathered is, most of the time, the better option.
The Blacksmith:
Crafting can only be performed in the Outpost, and the Blacksmith is the place to do that. Being part of the Outpost facilities, crafting is accessible through the Blacksmith and uses the Outpost inventory, where all the materials accumulated during the players adventures are located.
As with most of the buildings in the Outpost, the Blacksmith can be upgraded, providing access to more recipes or other bonuses.
Storage:
The game has two inventories: the partys inventory and the Outposts inventory. As is usually the case, the partys inventory is limited.
On the other hand, the Outpost's inventory is not limited, allowing for the accumulation of large quantities of materials necessary to craft, equip and supply a large roster of followers. Because of this, most crafting will take place at the Outpost, with alchemy and cooking being accessible in the field but relying only on the materials gathered in that sortie.
Building Upgrades:
Many of the buildings in the Outpost can be upgraded, bringing all sorts of bonuses to the player, from faster healing to better weapons and armor available for crafting. Each building has its specific upgrade levels and requirements that can be related to either resources or specific quests.
Missions:
With a large roster of characters comes the unavoidable problem of favorite characters. When unavailable or unsuitable for a certain dungeon, they have to rely on lower-level or badly geared followers. Also, with many followers crafting and the availability of materials are vital. To answer both of these issues is the task of the Missions system.
The player can send followers that are idle in the Outpost on certain Missions, missions that, if successful, award the player with materials, recipes, items, gold, and experience for the followers. Some followers can also return wounded or fatigued from the missions, requiring recovery time in the Burrow, so its wise to choose wisely the missions and the characters.
This is just a brief description of the systems that make up the base and follower management aspect of the game.
We will be back with more dev diaries soon!
Cheers,
Team Zoria

Dev Diary #3 - The Kingdom of Nulbarak
[ 2022-09-24 11:06:49 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hey adventurers!
As we released a new demo a couple of days ago, we want to introduce you to a few locations you will visit while exploring the Kingdom of Nulbarak.
The garrison at the Lonely Tower is beheld as a tyrant in these lands, and the villagers wish to be rid of them. This will work greatly in our favor, should we be able to exploit this.
However, be prepared; the path to the garrison is not easy; some sort of magical barrier protects it! The soldiers guard the secret closely, and nobody outside the barriers borders seems to know anything about it.
The turmoil in the lands of Nulbarak grows, aided in some measure by us. That is not to say we caused any new degree of conflict but merely helped the villagers stand up to the tyrannical regime of the Elionian soldiers. We have stood on the side of the common folk of Nulbarak, helping them cut off the supplies going to the soldiers and culminating with an assault of the garrison on the fledgling militia of Nulbarak.
Here you can prepare for the journey on the paths of Nulbarak. Recruit your followers, and prepare the necessary potions in the Wizard Tent using your crafting skills. Remember to spend your ability points! Each of your followers has a separate amount.
Through sweat and blood we have recovered a strange badge from the soldiers of the garrison. It appears to protect them from the harmful effects of the barrier surrounding the Lonely Tower, granting them safe passage. Our leading scientist, Reija, has managed to replicate the workings of the strange device and create similar items for our men. Though the technology is something way beyond our times, we now possess the means to get closer to our goal.
We want to leave this one as a mystery. Find your way to the Lonely Tower and discover what mysteries it contains!
Of course, there is more, but we don't want to show you everything! But as a hint, we can say there are places you can visit only with specific characters in your team!
Play the demo, and learn what secrets the Kingdom of Nulbarak protects!
Until the next time!

Dev Diary #2 - Let's talk about the Stats!
Secondary Stats:
These effects do not show on the Character Stat sheet but in the abilities description for each ability that places a certain effect. Some enemies can be immune to certain types of effects, making the abilities that place those effects less effective. This immunity will be shown in the Compendium entry for each enemy. Stats influence on abilities: The power of each ability of a certain class is affected by the main stat. Because of this, different builds for a class can benefit from a different main stat. As an example, below are some of the Kingsmans abilities and the stats affecting their power:
Weapon Damage and Spell Damage:
[ 2022-09-22 13:29:57 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello adventurers! Today we want to talk about some stats, armor, and attack types in Zoria. There are a lot of mechanics in the game that we believe we should cover, so you get the idea of what to expect when you jump into the world of Zoria. It's going to be a pretty long diary today, so grab your favorite beverage, snacks and enjoy the guide! Main Stats These stats directly influence the characters various attributes (health, damage) and the power of a characters abilities.
- Stamina: directly affects the characters health. Especially important early game and the single greatest contributor to player survivability.
- Strength: especially important for melee characters, directly affects Melee Attack Power and increases the Energy pool for Lancer class and Captain. It also increases block power for characters wearing a Shield.
- Agility: increases Ranged Attack Power for Ranger. Increases Melee Attack Power for Thief. Increases Melee Attack Power for Lancer, Kingsman, Battle Cleric, and Captain to a smaller degree. Increases Energy pool for Ranger, Thief, and Kingsman. Increases Crit Chance with values depending on the class. Increases Armor.
- Intellect: Increases Spell Power. Increases Magic Armor. Increases Crit Chance for magic abilities. Increases Mana pool for Wizard, Necromancer, Priest, Battle Cleric, Bard.
- Armor: reduces the amount of damage received from physical abilities and effects.
- Magic Armor: reduces the amount of damage received from magic abilities and effects.
Secondary Stats:
- Initiative: it influences the characters place in the combat queue at the start and where it will be placed in the queue once that characters turn is finished. A character with a high Initiative value will be placed higher in the combat queue once its turn is completed than a character with a low Initiative value.
- Hit Chance: chance to hit with an ability. It is directly influenced by the level difference between the character and the enemy. The higher the level of an enemy compared to the character, the lower the Hit Chance.
- Crit Chance: Critical chance is influenced by the dominant stat for that class Agility or Intellect.
- Fire Magic
- Water Magic
- Nature Magic
- Arcane Magic
- Death Magic
- Light Magic
- Sunder: can be applied by physical abilities. Decreases the player Armor and can stack multiple effects.
- Wound: can be applied by physical abilities. Decreases the player Initiative while active.
- Bleed: can be applied by physical abilities. Deals damage over time to the character until removed.
- Stun: can be applied by any kind of ability. Locks the character in the current position in the combat queue for its duration.
- Poison: can be applied by Nature abilities. Decreases Hit Chance.
- Disease: can be applied by Nature abilities. DecreasesAgilityandIntellect.
- Curse: can be applied by Death abilities. Decreases Strength and Magic Armor.
These effects do not show on the Character Stat sheet but in the abilities description for each ability that places a certain effect. Some enemies can be immune to certain types of effects, making the abilities that place those effects less effective. This immunity will be shown in the Compendium entry for each enemy. Stats influence on abilities: The power of each ability of a certain class is affected by the main stat. Because of this, different builds for a class can benefit from a different main stat. As an example, below are some of the Kingsmans abilities and the stats affecting their power:
- Strength: Basic Attack, Vanquish thy Foe, Avenger Strike, Bash of Wrath.
- Agility: Shield Wall, King's Resolve, Deflect, Hold the Line, Avatar of Protection.
- Intellect: Magic Absorption, King's Fire.
- Durability: all weapons and armor now have certain durability that decreases with each combat. Once a gear items durability reaches 0, that item is no longer usable and does not contribute to the characters stats.
- Light Armor: worn by Wizard, Necromancer, and Priest classes.
- Medium Armor: worn by Ranger, Thief, Bard classes, and the Captain.
- Hardened Armor: worn by the Ranger, Kingsman, Lancer, Battle Cleric classes, and the Captain.
- Heavy Armor: worn by the Kingsman and Lancer classes.
Weapon Damage and Spell Damage:
- All weapons now have a weapon damage stat. This damage is added to the base attack of the character using that weapon.
- Specific caster weapons, like the staff, have a Spell Damage stat instead of Weapon Damage.

Dev Diary - Let's introduce ourselves!
Many of you may not know the story behind the Tiny Trinket Games. We think that for the first Dev Diary, it will be perfect to introduce ourselves and give you a little backstory on our first steps in the gaming industry. Ladies and gentlemen, meet our team! Stefan Nicolescu (Fane)
I have worked in the gaming industry since 2004, in several roles, from QA tester to QA Manager, to PM, Level Designer, and Game Designer. I have been working on mobile games in my spare time, but my mind was always set on a full-fledged PC RPG game. As time passed, my dream came true, and now I am in charge of all creative aspects for Zoria AoS - from mechanics to level design and environment design, UI, SFX, and animations. I love games, but most of all, I love making them. Nowadays, I enjoy the day-to-day process, as I am doing the thing that defines me. Stefan Nitescu (Neles)
Passionate about games since childhood, especially RPGs and story-driven games, my background is not what you would call a classic game developer background, with studies in architecture and business. Working on a game like Zoria was something I always wanted to do - to participate in the creation of a big, detailed, magical world that you can lose yourself into. Apart from the day-to-day administrative activities of Tiny Trinket Games, I'm in charge of the implementation of quests, actions, interactions, triggers, in short, Quests, Events, and Dialogues (QED). Together with Fane, I have written the lore of the world of Zoria and created the story's overall narrative structure, a part of the quests you will be playing throughout the game. I hope you will have as much fun playing Zoria: Age of Shattering as we had creating/working on it. Gabriel Ivanica (Gabi)
I've always been fond of video games and computers, but the road from playing them to making them was long. While studying, I discovered my passion for graphics programming and game engines since they are the perfect combination between complex technical sciences and the visual output of my work. Im a software engineer with a masters degree in Advanced Techniques for Computer Graphics. I worked on various University Research Projects to expand my knowledge of real-time graphics computing and general application software architecture. I also love sharing the things I learn, so I started teaching computer graphics and game programming at university or in the game industry in collaboration with Ubisoft Bucharest Studio. Working on Zoria has been the part that I enjoyed the most in the last five years. My dream is not only to launch this game but to continue to work on feature versions and expand the realm of possibilities of what gamers can do in Zoria through new features, mechanics, and visual feedback. What motivates me is the opportunity to work on a personal project that I love and grow it into something that others may experience and find enjoyable.
Tiny Trinket Games took its current form in 2017, and our purpose was to develop games for PC. The first game under the name Tiny Trinket Games, Azuran Tales: Trials, was launched for PC in 2018, about the same time we started working on the concept that would later become Zoria: Age of Shattering. In 2019 we managed to port Azuran Tales to the Nintendo Switch and have been working on Zoria since. We launched the Prologue in 2020 and the updated Demo in 2021, iterating and improving the systems and the game's overall quality. One downside of working on a large game as a small indie team is the time involved in taking the game to where we wanted it, especially since we had to support ourselves in the meantime and could often only work on it in our spare time.
We (Fane and Neles) have been friends for years, and we've spent lots of hours playing together at Lan parties back in the day.
Years ago, weve been talking about making games and were both very excited about the idea. One thing led to another, and we decided to try to make it work. After many prototypes and a long search for a third partner to complete our team, we met Gabi at a gathering at TechHub Bucharest. We set up a meeting, we met, Fane (Stefan Nicolescu) showcased what he did in Unity, and Gabi liked what he saw. From there, it is history, and we are here, now, all three of us, after many, many, many sleepless nights, iterations, meetings, calls, and lots of coffee and green tea (for Gabi).
The idea for Zoria evolved, and Fanes and Gabi's skills progressed. Originally the game was supposed to be a Mobile game, but Fane wanted something a bit more and later discovered that the rest of the guys also did. One thing led to another, and from 2D mobile, we moved to 2D + 3D characters and Heroes 3 style combat to the free-roaming combat we now have in Zoria.
We started in March or April 2017 when we presented Gabi with the mobile game design document. Many years and a lot of free time spent on nothing else but this. For Stefan Nicolescu, it was a learning curve in terms of level and environment design; with each iteration each year, the levels would improve. It took him around three years and thousands of hours to reach consistent levels. The same goes for Gabi to understand more the mechanics Fane needed and for Neles (Stefan Nitescu) as well for understanding and requesting features in the Quest Editor. Gabi and Neles did an excellent job with the Quest Editor, something that was built from scratch to fit our needs. It is still being upgraded as we discover we need it for a thing not tough possible.
Keeping the team together for so long without seeing a financial gain, fueled only by grit and hope. Then came things like: as the design expanded - keeping track of all the mechanics, skills, triggers, and progress for creating a quest or a new enemy. There is a lot of information overload at some point. Another challenge for us is trying to keep things small; we are kinda failing at this as the Demos we released so far are like small games in terms of gameplay hours. The game changed a lot- an unrecognizable - from 2D mobile game to a 3D party-based, free-roaming, open-world CRPG.
Subjectively here: it's made by three guys in a "living room," as we don't have basements. We're also proud that we landed a good balance between too easy (Heroes 3) and too complex (Divinity: Original Sin combinations), so you can easily get into the game. That sums up our story; there is nothing more to say. Were a group of friends with the privilege to do what they love! Cheers, Tiny Trinket Games Team

Im a software engineer with a masters degree in Advanced Techniques for Computer Graphics. I worked on various University Research Projects to expand my knowledge of real-time graphics computing and general application software architecture. I also love sharing the things I learn, so I started teaching computer graphics and game programming at university or in the game industry in collaboration with Ubisoft Bucharest Studio. Working on Zoria has been the part that I enjoyed the most in the last five years. My dream is not only to launch this game but to continue to work on feature versions and expand the realm of possibilities of what gamers can do in Zoria through new features, mechanics, and visual feedback. What motivates me is the opportunity to work on a personal project that I love and grow it into something that others may experience and find enjoyable.
Tiny Trinket Games took its current form in 2017, and our purpose was to develop games for PC. The first game under the name Tiny Trinket Games, Azuran Tales: Trials, was launched for PC in 2018, about the same time we started working on the concept that would later become Zoria: Age of Shattering. In 2019 we managed to port Azuran Tales to the Nintendo Switch and have been working on Zoria since. We launched the Prologue in 2020 and the updated Demo in 2021, iterating and improving the systems and the game's overall quality. One downside of working on a large game as a small indie team is the time involved in taking the game to where we wanted it, especially since we had to support ourselves in the meantime and could often only work on it in our spare time.
Origin story and how we started project Zoria.
We (Fane and Neles) have been friends for years, and we've spent lots of hours playing together at Lan parties back in the day.
Years ago, weve been talking about making games and were both very excited about the idea. One thing led to another, and we decided to try to make it work. After many prototypes and a long search for a third partner to complete our team, we met Gabi at a gathering at TechHub Bucharest. We set up a meeting, we met, Fane (Stefan Nicolescu) showcased what he did in Unity, and Gabi liked what he saw. From there, it is history, and we are here, now, all three of us, after many, many, many sleepless nights, iterations, meetings, calls, and lots of coffee and green tea (for Gabi).
The idea for Zoria evolved, and Fanes and Gabi's skills progressed. Originally the game was supposed to be a Mobile game, but Fane wanted something a bit more and later discovered that the rest of the guys also did. One thing led to another, and from 2D mobile, we moved to 2D + 3D characters and Heroes 3 style combat to the free-roaming combat we now have in Zoria.
We started in March or April 2017 when we presented Gabi with the mobile game design document. Many years and a lot of free time spent on nothing else but this. For Stefan Nicolescu, it was a learning curve in terms of level and environment design; with each iteration each year, the levels would improve. It took him around three years and thousands of hours to reach consistent levels. The same goes for Gabi to understand more the mechanics Fane needed and for Neles (Stefan Nitescu) as well for understanding and requesting features in the Quest Editor. Gabi and Neles did an excellent job with the Quest Editor, something that was built from scratch to fit our needs. It is still being upgraded as we discover we need it for a thing not tough possible.
WHAT WAS THE BIGGEST CHALLANGE FOR US?
Keeping the team together for so long without seeing a financial gain, fueled only by grit and hope. Then came things like: as the design expanded - keeping track of all the mechanics, skills, triggers, and progress for creating a quest or a new enemy. There is a lot of information overload at some point. Another challenge for us is trying to keep things small; we are kinda failing at this as the Demos we released so far are like small games in terms of gameplay hours. The game changed a lot- an unrecognizable - from 2D mobile game to a 3D party-based, free-roaming, open-world CRPG.
WHAT IS THE BEST FOR YOU ABOUT ZORIA, WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?
Subjectively here: it's made by three guys in a "living room," as we don't have basements. We're also proud that we landed a good balance between too easy (Heroes 3) and too complex (Divinity: Original Sin combinations), so you can easily get into the game. That sums up our story; there is nothing more to say. Were a group of friends with the privilege to do what they love! Cheers, Tiny Trinket Games Team

Its happening!
Hello! Many of you are hearing about us for the first time. Let us quickly introduce ourselves. We're Tiny Trinket Games, a team of 3 passionate devs from Bucharest, Romania, who dream of creating impactful RPG games. Sounds cliche, right?
[previewyoutube=a1WlTf7dIvM;full][/previewyoutube]
We've been working on Zoria: Age Shattering since 2018. We can proudly say we have around 80% of the finished content. We teamed up with Anshar Publishing to give you guys as many opportunities as possible to get familiar with Zoria. That's why we treat Kickstarter as a part of the community-driven approach to our fans. The collected budget will be spent on improvements and additional content we have ideas for, like new classes, locations, and mechanics, which will make the world of Zoria more complex and offer what players expect from immersive RPGs. We hope you will join us on this journey!
In the next update, we will unveil more information about Zoria's Lore, and we'll break through every game mechanic. Today we have to stick with the most crucial thing Zoria: Age of Shattering demo is now available on Steam for free!
The demo we're presenting covers a part of the game, which will be available later in the full release. In this build, we wanted to focus on a cross-sectional presentation of the mechanics and story of the Zoria world. To fully enjoy the gameplay, it is essential to remember that each teammate has a skill tree, which requires the distribution of skill points.
You should also regularly look around by rotating the camera during combat and exploration. Make sure the place you've visited has been viewed from all angles and you haven't missed anything. Have fun with the game: play with the team's configuration, attacks, skills, and development paths. Depending on the skills of your team members, some quests will be able to be completed differently, and some ways and objects will become accessible to you.
Due to this build's "work-in-progress" nature, you may encounter some minor (hopefully not major!) issues. If this happens, we would appreciate it if you would alert us of them. Please share any feedback with us via the Discord server!

Tiny Trinket Games X Anshar Publishing
[ 2022-08-12 12:44:54 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hi adventurers!
You may have noticed that the field "Publisher" has changed on our Steam page. Yes, WE HAVE A PUBLISHER!
As many of you know, we've been working on Zoria for years (five, to be specific); our studio is made of only three people who share the passion for narrative turn-based RPGs. For five years, we've been working day jobs, and after that, we worked on the project every single day, as we wanted to make the game everything players and we wanted it to be. Unfortunately, it took quite some time, the genre is not the easiest one either, but now, we could quit our jobs and focus 100% on Zoria!
The negotiations were not long; we got along pretty quickly
We understand that you may wonder what it means for the game and you, the players. Anshar Publishing team reached out to us because they genuinely liked our game idea, and just like us, they want to help it grow.
They took over our social media some time ago and are helping us promote Zoria to a wider number of people. We're thrilled that they will assist us here and share their knowledge to help us deliver the game to all of you
Besides social media, we're getting help with marketing and full game release! The other great thing about our cooperation is that we're talking about many things, including new ideas for the game - all of them must be improved by us, so be sure that the game's concept will stay unchanged. We're already working on something huge; we can't say what yet, but keep your eyes on our social media as the information will be public soon! We can, however, show you an exclusive screenshot of what you will see in the final game
But who are they in the first place?
They are an indie publisher in love with isometric narrative RPGs and even more genres. They have already released a narrative, non-combat RPG, Gamedec. The journey looks promising, and we can almost see the destination point!
But that's not all! We have more information for you today; Zoria: The Age of Shattering will be presented in Cologne on Gamescom 2022 You can meet and chat with the folks from Anshar Publishing and ask them some questions!
Be there!

Devlog: The Outpost
[ 2021-05-11 14:27:28 CET ] [ Original post ]
Welcome back, adventurers of the world of Zoria.
We are returning to a more active schedule with our posts so expect some more of these in the following weeks. After our last Devlog there were a number of questions we received on different platforms about the actual gameplay and the role of base building and management in the game.
There isnt much new to say about exploration and combat, beside what can be seen in the Prologue or has been talked about in previous posts: Zoria plays like a CRPG with real-time exploration and movement on the map, and gridless turn-based combat. More about the combat update soon, with all the revamped classes, abilities and improvements to the overall combat experience.
Relevant to this article are 2 aspects of exploration and combat:
Fatigue: is a stat that increases with time spent out in the wilds and is also affected by how many encounters a follower has fought through. The more fatigue a character accumulates the less effective that character gets, with stats decreasing, a little at first and significantly as fatigue gets to high levels.
Supplies: the best way to recover followers health and clear certain effects is the resting mechanic.
Supplies: Resting out in the field takes time and requires supplies, as followers cant go around hungry. Supplies can be found during exploration but can also be obtained through cooking. It is advised to take enough supplies from the Outpost when leaving for an adventure.
One aspect of the game we havent talked a lot about is the base and base management: The Outpost and all the outpost systems. Because exploration, questing and combat are just a part of the game, but what truly differentiates Zoria: Age of Shattering from other CRPG titles is how base and character management is integrated into the game.
Characters:
The player is not limited to a set of companions that will follow throughout the game, as it is usually the case, but is free to recruit many, either from the world, through quests, or from different locations within the game. The only limit to the player is the party size, but the Barracks inside the outpost act as a home to all the followers that are not in the current party.
Every time the player leaves the Outpost, he is free to choose whatever party composition he wants, limited only to what follower are available at that point. This means players can have a party suited to their playstile or to the places they want to visit dark dungeons full of traps where Thieves can come in handy or long forgotten ruins where Mages or Lancers can make exploration easier.
The only constant in the party is the Captain, all the other characters can be switched in or out of the party every time the player returns to the Outpost.
The Barracks:
The heart of the Follower Management system, it is the place where you can equip your troops with the newest weapons you crafted, the most powerful potions, and special items found in the dungeons they conquered. You can also see in this screen your Followers level, stats, status, and the abilities they have unlocked.
The Burrow:
All that adventuring and fighting will increase troops fatigue and with fatigue increasing everything else goes down, including Follower stats and combat efficiency. The best way to recover your troops is to send them to the Moon Flower BURROW for some rest and relaxation actually its the only way. This means not all of your followers will be available all the time, some will need a longer stay than others, depending on their Fatigue level and wounds received during their time adventuring.
Besides its strictly functional role, the Moon Flower Burrows manager, Madame Sybilla is an exotic character with some interesting stories and quests.
The Inn:
The Lucky Dog Inn serves many purposes in the Outpost, being as much a utility building as it is quest hub and a place to meet interesting characters.
The utility aspect of the Inn refers to cooking, as the Inn is the place where all the cooking takes place in the Outpost. Sure, cooking can also be done on the road, but sometimes its preferrable to do that in the Outpost where all the materials gathered are stored.
Another very important factor related to the Inn is recruiting. Since recruiting is done in more than one way, and some quests, depending on the outcome, can offer the option to recruit a character, the Inn is not the only way to expand a players roster of followers, but it can still be quite an effective one.
The Black Cauldron:
As is the case with cooking, alchemy can also be performed on the road as well, for a quick healing potion to get out of trouble but having access to all the materials gathered is most of the times the better option.
The Blacksmith:
Crafting can only be performed in the Outpost and the Blacksmith is the place to do that. Being part of the Outpost facilities, crafting is accessible through the Blacksmith and uses the Outpost inventory, where all the materials accumulated during the players adventures are located.
As with most of the buildings in the Outpost, the Blacksmith can be upgraded, providing access to more recipes or other bonuses.
Storage:
There are two inventories in the game: the partys inventory and the Outposts inventory.
As it is usually the case, the partys inventory is limited.
The Outposts inventory on the other hand is not limited, allowing for the accumulation of large quantities of materials necessary to craft, equip and supply a large roster of followers. Because of this, most crafting will take place at the Outpost, with alchemy and cooking being accessible in the field, but having to rely only on the materials gathered in that sortie.
Building Upgrades:
Most of the buildings in the Outpost can be upgraded, bringing all sorts of bonuses to the player, from faster healing to better weapons and armor available for crafting. Each building has its specific upgrade levels and requirements, that can be related to either resources or specific quests.
Missions:
With a large roster of characters comes the unavoidable problem of favorite characters and when they are not available or not suitable for a certain dungeon, having to rely on lower level or badly geared followers. Also, with many followers crafting and the availability of materials is vital. To answer both of these issues is the task of the Missions system.
The player can send followers that are idle in the Outpost on certain Missions, missions that, if successful award the player with materials, recipes, items, gold and experience for the followers. Some followers can also return wounded or fatigued from the missions, requiring recovery time in the Burrow so its wise to choose wisely the missions and the characters.
This is just a brief description of the systems that make up the base and follower management aspect of the game, there are many more details coming in the following weeks.

Devlog: Updates for 2021 so far
[ 2021-04-22 18:52:27 CET ] [ Original post ]
Greetings adventurers of Zoria,
Its been a long time since our last Devlog, but there are also many changes that happened to the game in that time. The main reason weve been silent is that weve been busy making the game.
Because of this, todays Devlog is a short and introductory one, with a brief description of all the things that happened to the game since.
Alchemy and Cooking: our last Devlog was about Crafting, but in the meantime we also implemented the Cooking and Alchemy systems. We will be making a separate Devlog detailing how the systems work in the following days.
Quest System Update: this update is not something immediately obvious to the players, but its nonetheless a very important update, as it allows us far more control in crafting the quests and interactions in the game. With this update we now have far more freedom in making dialogue choices as well as quest choices that have real impact and consequences in the game.
NPC behavior system: we wanted the world of Zoria to feel alive and inhabited by all kinds of characters, each with their lives. We achieved this by creating a behavior system for all the humanoid NPCs in the game, friendly or hostile. Each NPC in the game has one or more points of interests and behaviors, triggered by different events in the game.
Classes and Abilities update: this is a big one. We are in the process of updating the skill trees for all the classes in the game, with new abilities and a completely revamped tree. The update is intended to give more agency to the player in customizing all the followers, as well as making the combat more interesting with all kinds of new abilities.
We will return in the following weeks with detailed presentations for each class, the skill tree and all the abilities available.
Content: Together with all these updates we have been working on the content, with the first big area in the game, Rithvale, almost complete at this point, in terms of main area, dungeons and encounters. There is still work being done on the main quest, side quests and all the small details that make a game good. As with all the other elements described in this post, we will return with a more detailed post about Rithvale.
We also completely reworked some of the scenes from the Prologue (Thallamar for example) and increased the visual quality overall.
Until further details, I leave you with the new Main Screen background:

Devlog: Crafting
Unstable Slot This is the true wildcard of the crafting system, allowing the player greater freedom in crafting but bringing along greater risk in the crafting process.
The Blacksmith: Being part of the Outpost facilities, crafting is accessible through the Blacksmith and uses the Outpost inventory, where all the materials accumulated during the players adventures are located.
As with most of the buildings in the Outpost, the Blacksmith can be upgraded, providing access to more recipes or other bonuses. More about the Outpost and the upgrade system in a future Devlog. With crafting is almost in testing phase, Alchemy and Cooking are already in development and they will be the subject of our next Devlog, followed by the other systems that make up the Outpost.

Greetings adventurers of Zoria, Today is the turn of the Crafting System to receive a thorough presentation. The crafting system is part of the Outpost base and follower management System, but since it is almost complete and ready to go into closed beta testing, we decided to introduce it before the overall presentation of the Outpost. Crafting in Zoria: Age of Shattering revolves around 2 key elements recipes and players freedom to experiment and optimize. The Crafting Screen:
- The screen is split in 3 parts:
- Available recipes on the left side
- Inventory with all the available materials and crafting items on the right side
- The crafting area in the center.
- The items stats change according to the materials used to fill the slots, the complete stats being visible in the upper part of the central screen.
- The lower part of the central screen is where the special slots are located: the Crafting Kit slot and the Unstable Slot.
- Below them there is the items cost to craft and the Crafting Chance, that will remain 100% as long as no material is added to the Unstable Slot.
- Exploration either on the main area map or exploring dungeons and hidden places.
- Quest rewards by performing certain tasks and doing various quests.
- Missions by sending characters on unattended missions that reward recipes.
- Common
- Uncommon
- Rare
- Exotic
- Epic
- Item Level.
- Item Type: Armor, Weapon, Trinket
- Base Stats 1 to 3 base stats, specific to the recipe, depending on item rarity.
- Item Durability.
- Crafting Kit slot.
- Crafting slots, number depending on rarity.
- Unstable Slot.
- Each recipe can craft an item of a certain level, its base stats depending on this level as much as the recipes rarity.
- For Armors Armor Type light, medium, hardened, heavy
- For Weapons Weapon Type sword, axe, dagger,
- Armors can have 1-3 Main Stats, depending on rarity - Stamina, Strength, Agility, Intellect.
- Weapons can have 1-3 Main or Secondary Stats, depending on rarity.
- Shields can have 1-3 Main Stats, depending on rarity and also have a Block Chance Stat.
- Trinkets can have 1-3 Secondary Stats, depending on rarity.
- All items have a base durability. This base durability is based on the Common Crafting Kit.
- The items durability can be improved by using better Crafting Kits.
- Crafting Kits are the base of any item to be crafted.
- The Common Crafting Kit can be used to craft any item, either weapon or armor, and it comes with a base Durability value.
- Other Crafting Kits can be used to craft specific items of greater durability Uncommon, Rare and Exotic Crafting Kits provide greater durability for the crafted item, but they are specific to an item type.
- The type of Crafting Kit used is entirely at the players discretion, there are no limitations within the recipes.
- There are 2-5 crafting slots for a recipe, depending on rarity.
- Each Crafting Slot has a Material Type and a quantity e.g. For a common item, the recipe can have the following slots: 2x Metal and 3x Fabric
- For an item to be crafted, all required slots must be completed.
- An item will be successfully crafted using any materials of the type and quantity specified in the Recipe: Metals, Fabrics or Crystals.
- Each material provides a different stat allowing the player to experiment and create different items starting from the same recipe.
- Completing all Crafting Slots with the appropriate materials results in 100% chance to craft that item.
Unstable Slot This is the true wildcard of the crafting system, allowing the player greater freedom in crafting but bringing along greater risk in the crafting process.
- Additional to the normal Crafting Slots, that provide 100% chance to craft the item, all recipes also include an unstable slot.
- This unstable slot is completely optional, filling it is not required to craft an item.
- The Unstable Slot is the only slot where Fragments can be placed, a special type of crafting material, that provide enhanced stats.
- The Unstable Slot allows the player to craft more powerful items but with the added risk of the items chance to be successfully crafted decreasing.
- For each item placed in the Unstable Slot, the chance to craft decreases by 15% and the item durability decreases by 3%.
The Blacksmith: Being part of the Outpost facilities, crafting is accessible through the Blacksmith and uses the Outpost inventory, where all the materials accumulated during the players adventures are located.
As with most of the buildings in the Outpost, the Blacksmith can be upgraded, providing access to more recipes or other bonuses. More about the Outpost and the upgrade system in a future Devlog. With crafting is almost in testing phase, Alchemy and Cooking are already in development and they will be the subject of our next Devlog, followed by the other systems that make up the Outpost.

Devlog: Stats
With all this said, character stats now look like this: Main Stats These stats directly influence the characters various attributes (health, damage) and the power of a characters individual abilities.
[ 2020-07-01 14:32:37 CET ] [ Original post ]
Greetings adventurers of Zoria, Weve had a busy couple of months with the release of the Prologue and the Steam Summer Festival, going through all the awesome feedback we have received from you and updating and improving the Prologue based on that feedback. With Prologue update 0.3.5 launched and all that behind us now, we are moving towards finalizing development for the features that are still missing and adding content for the game. For todays Devlog we will make an in-depth presentation of the updated stats system and its influence on skills and items in the game. We will not be discussing exact numbers since game balance is still ongoing and many of these numbers will probably be adjusted several times before release, but the workings of the system remain in place. First thing to mention, we are renaming some stats that proved to be confusing for a lot of players to be more in-line with classic RPG players expectations.
- Mastery becomes Strength
- Prowess is now more properly named Agility
- Speed is now Initiative, to better illustrate its role in the combat queue.
- Melee Attack Power
- Ranged Attack Power
- Spell Power
- Block Power
With all this said, character stats now look like this: Main Stats These stats directly influence the characters various attributes (health, damage) and the power of a characters individual abilities.
- Stamina: directly affects the characters health. Especially important early game and the single greatest contributor to player survivability.
- Strength: especially important for melee characters, directly affects Melee Attack Power and increases the Energy pool for Lancer class and Captain. Also increases block power for characters wearing a Shield.
- Agility: increases Ranged Attack Power for Ranger. Increases Melee Attack Power for Thief. Increases Melee Attack Power for Lancer, Kingsman, Battle Cleric and Captain, to a smaller degree. Increases Energy pool for Ranger, Thief, Kingsman. Increases Crit Chance with values depending on class. Increases Armor.
- Intellect: Increases Spell Power. Increases Magic Armor. Increases Crit Chance for magic abilities. Increases Mana pool for Wizard, Necromancer, Priest, Battle Cleric, Bard.

Zoria: Age of Shattering Prologue
[ 2020-04-24 18:18:51 CET ] [ Original post ]
Greetings adventurers of the world of Zoria,
Today we have great news and we wanted to share them with you.
Zoria: Age of Shattering Prologue is launching on Steam on the 30th of April, 10AM PDT.
Thats right, you get to experience the world of Zoria: Age of Shattering firsthand, in a Free Prologue. Its a 2hours + experience of the game as it is today, here:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1216470/Zoria_Age_of_Shattering_Prologue/
A little intro to Zoria: Age of Shattering Prologue.
Zoria: Age of Shattering Prologue is meant to introduce the player to the world of Zoria. The game consists of a series of unique places and events, dungeons, epic fights and classic, party-based RPG adventure.
While Zoria: Age of Shattering will be about balancing management of your followers and Outpost with adventuring out into the world, the Prologue is all about exploration, adventure and the stories and events that lead to the player taking control of the Outpost.
What you will find in this Prologue:
Story and Quests the story follows the events that lead to the player taking charge of the Outpost, the formation of his first party of followers and the stories he encounters along the way, stories that, together, paint a picture of the world and its inhabitants.
Survival system - resource management and, yes hunger. Making camp and resting will restore health, vital resources and even cleanse a few negative effects. But resting is only available if the party has the necessary supplies. So, keep an eye for items around you that could provide supplies.
Tactical, turn-based combat. Most of the encounters should be easily managed by the player but there are a few that require a little more care and wise management of the available abilities. The combat itself is a mix of old and new, as it is turn-based but not grid-based, and not overly complex, allowing for a greater freedom of movement and gameplay speed.
Abilities and gear management each follower class has its own abilities to choose from, abilities that get unlocked when a follower reaches certain levels. So different players have the choice of abilities to match their playstyle, for each class. Gear is acquired from combat, exploration and doing certain quests.
Environment-specific abilities: in Zoria, some places are only accessible by using some of your followers abilities and each class has a different environment-specific ability. Depending on the party, some areas may not be accessible and only returning with a different setup can insure all areas are explored.
With all this said, there are still a lot of things left out for the future.
As said before, Zoria: Age of Shattering is comprised of two equally important elements for achieving success a CRPG adventure with diverse, hand-crafted environments and turn-based combat together with a base and follower management component.
The entire management base and management side of the game is still to come:
outpost upgrades used to acquire new buildings or upgrade existing ones, health and morale management for followers, weapons and armor crafting, brewing potions for them and sending a few chosen of your followers on unattended missions to some of the most dangerous places the world of Zoria has to offer, for them to acquire experience, increase in level and bring back treasure.

A few gameplay details
[ 2019-10-08 14:13:32 CET ] [ Original post ]
Greetings adventurers of the world of Zoria,
Its been a busy but exciting week for us as announcing Zoria: Age of Shattering. Before anything else we'd like to thank you for the great reception and joining in the conversation and talking to us in person over at our Discord Server.
Now we decided return with some more details on the game in anticipation of releasing the demo soon.
The game is comprised of two equally important elements for achieving success a CRPG adventure with diverse, hand-crafted environments and turn-based combat together with a base and follower management component. The management part of the game consists of upgrading the outpost to acquire new buildings or upgrade existing ones, tending to the health and morale of your followers, crafting the best weapons and armor you can, brewing potions for them and sending a few chosen of your followers on missions to some of the most dangerous places the world of Zoria has to offer.
Today well go into a little more detail on the traditional RPG part of the game since well be releasing a demo in a few weeks better illustrating it.
Once out of the outpost, either on an area map or in an adventure (dungeon, mine, forest, town) you take full control of your chosen party of followers and go explore.
One of the things you will come to realize exploring the world of Zoria: Age of Shattering is that some places are only accessible by using some of your followers abilities. Each class has a different set of abilities, not only in combat but also while exploring. There are different ways to approach an area depending on the skills of your party and their ability to disarm trap, spawn bridges, clear blocked passageways or some other.
Most places have more than one path to the finish and depending on the party composition some paths may not be accessible. Taking great care in choosing your party is very important and most quests leading to an adventure will have clues as to what lies ahead: a very old mine will surely have collapsed passageways, so taking a lancer with you that can destroy a roadblock would be a good idea; just as good as taking a mage that can summon bridges when raiding an old mountain fort.
Survival: something to keep focus on during exploration is party and resource management hunger. Making camp and resting will restore health and even cleanse a few negative effects after a fight but lack of food can turn time from a healer into an enemy. Having appropriate supplies or knowing when to abandon and try another time is just as important as being well geared and prepared for a fight.
Supplies can be purchased from the local trader or you can cook your own when making camp if you have the necessary raw materials.
Combat: combat is a very important part of any RPG, and Zoria: Age of Shattering is no different. In the game combat is a mix of old and new, as its turn-based but not grid-based, allowing for a greater freedom of movement and gameplay speed. Each class has its own set of abilities but there are also different possible builds for each class giving the player great flexibility in choosing how to play the game.
Potions Not only abilities (defense, healing spells and buffs) can affect your followers health, there are also various potions that can help or, used wrong, harm the party. The player will be able to either craft potions through alchemy or purchase potions from a local trader or various characters encountered during exploration.
Elemental resistance - did I mention resistances? No? Every class as well as every type of enemy (races, factions) have their weak spots as well as strong points, so using a certain build, lets say a necromancer specialized in death magic can be a bad choice going into a dungeon full of the undead that are, right, quite resistant to death magic. Theyre already dead after all.
And then theres the open combat and the living world - any enemy patrolling too close to the location you started a fight can join the combat. So, entering combat while there are patrols or just wild animals moving nearby can quickly make a simple fight become very complicated.
In the Demo that well be releasing soon we are looking for feedback regarding world exploration, questing, the overall combat and the balance and follower stats.
This concludes our short presentation of the exploration and combat in Zoria: Age of Shattering.
We will return in the following days breakdown of the base and follower management systems. Hope you like it and we would like to hear from you with comments, suggestions, question, etc.
