Ad Astra Infinita: The New Evolution

This is a post-apocalyptic turn-based combat sandbox RPG with a very loose definition of 'role-playing'. Expect to encounter very silly dialogue as you kill creatures and take their body parts to equip to your party, Spore-style.

Highlights:

>Challenging turn-based combat inspired by the Shin Megami Tensei series - build Limit by hitting enemies' weaknesses, then unleash devastating Transcend abilities!

>In-depth customization - take Mutagenes from fallen foes and use them to change your party members' elemental affinities and gain new attacks on the fly! Nothing is extensively tested, so find the overpowered combos and go wild!

>A lot of convenience features - trigger fast travel, turn random encounters on and off, and trigger specific enemy encounters with the touch of a button on the world map! Let nothing stand between you and the well-crafted combat system.

>Original soundtrack blending heavy metal with elements of orchestral and electronic music! Definitely no incongruous sounds here.

>Rampant abuse of technobabble that would make the developers of Master of Orion and Sword of the Stars proud!

State of the Game(As of May 13, 2025):

<b class="BB_Bold _3cln317VYhwhE1fSeMCG48" <the="" game="" is="">The game is not done,</b> but it's complete enough to be fully playable from start to finish, with no major bugs known to me at this time. I'm releasing it now because I may never release it if I wait until it's perfectly satisfactory, and I want to get some feedback before I proceed further. Expect updates with new and revamped content in the next few months.

This is my first major game, so I'm releasing it for free and looking for all the feedback I can get. Please leave a comment if you played the game! As of May 13, 2025, the game is fully playable from start to finish, though I do plan to continue making updates to the game as I receive feedback through the end of 2025 or so, and to add some extra content here and there.
