Crimson Sword Saga: Tactics Part I
beta v6 released!
here is a major update, the beta v6 is released!
The major change is the soundtrack. I have used
some RPG Maker musics while not having the rights.
I have replaced all the music with legal one and I find the
soundtrack even better! I also have to check the legal status
of the font I used! I would better remain in good standing!
Sorry for the inconvenience,
David N.

beta v4 released!
beta v4 released!
I have recheck the script for part 1. Plus minor correction here and there. I need to recheck part 2 and 3 and add some support talk between characters for part 3. Once again, in the current state the game is playable and enjoyable but can still be improved.
Thank you for your patience!

I have also updated the steam page with new screenshots. A demo will be up in a few days on Steam. Great for those still hesitating to buy the game!
Thank you for your support,

beta v3 released!
here is an update. I have playtested the second part of the game. It should work well and it is enjoyable from start to finish. I still need to update some pictures used for the tutorial, but gameplaywise the game is finished. Still need to add the extra menu, rework the trailer, the screenshots, etc.
Thank you for your support,

Beta v2 released!
I have slightly playtested the first half of the game. The script for the second part has also been checked and slightly changed. Minor correction here and there too.
I have started to use Facebook and twitter, here is the facebook link (for some technical reason I can't link my facebook page, I will contact the support)

For twitter, the link is on the steam page. Still many things to do and check.
Thank you for your support,

beta v1 released!
here is a major update. The game is nearly finished. There are still many things to do and check but the game is playable and enjoyable. The game is still in beta state and there is only one build (default branch). The old version is no more as it was an embarrassment in my opinion. The old saves won't work either.
I will spend less time on making the game and more time to promote it. I need to remake the trailer, make a demo, etc. I will make many more small updates in the future to improve and complete the game to the best extent of my capability.
Stay tuned!

Plan for the release v1.00!
here is some plan for the game.
I will add an "imperial" paths which consist of 3 maps.
At scenario 16, if you lose (just let Abel die) you will go to scenario 17B, 18B and 19B and switch back to David's team. I always wanted to do a full branching storyline like in my first game The Peloran Wars but because of the story it wouldn't feel quite right for Abel to switch side like joining the Empire...
You get a new character named Ishtar (Issal's sister) who joins to stop her brother and the best healer of the game! "new" enemies will appear as well like Minerva (Athena's big sister) and other!
Most of the maps are used 2 times in differents context so It won't get too repetitive. There will be a bonus challenge map once you finish the game where you will battle against all special characters (around 36) of the game who will rush you! It is not supposed to be cleared (maybe someone will succeed!) and the goal is simply to defeat as many enemies as possible!
Finally the crimson sword will be named Clarent (as Excalibur counterpart).
I will keep the title as it is and the unofficial name of the game will be Clarent Saga: Tactics.
Everything is carefully planned in my head but I am a little burned out of this project. I really love the game and all but I am tired of testing it again and again. So I will take the time to complete v1.00! Of course Srpg Studio will be updated with the latest version!
I sincerely hope people will find enjoyment with this game.
Best regards,
David Nguyen.
v 0.99b
here is a very small update:
I have updated SRPG Studio to the latest version (1.178)
and in the tutorial it now mentions the buttons F1, F2 and F3.
It seems there is a bug where battle sprite doesn't appear,
I have reimported the battle sprite, I hope it fix this bug.
Hope people enjoy this game,
David Nguyen.
