Tartapolis Launched!
Attention City Dwellers!
This is a H.I.V.E. public announcement!
Tartapolis officialy opens the City gates! So welcome Citizens! It has been an incredibly perilous journey to get to this point! However we prevailed! We hope everyone will enjoy the game that we put so much love and hard work into. The current release is 1.0.0 and we plan to go from there. The final version including all planned updates would be around 1.2.0. After that point we will announce and release Tartapolis Director's cut free DLC which will bring a new area into the City, as well as additional aspect of the story.
Allright Citizens! Time for some technical stuff...
Tartapolis is a game that heavily relies on your hard drive performance. It's very light on GPU in terms of calculations but heavy in terms of memory usage. It's important to note is that the game has two quality settings in the options menu. Mid is intended for use with HDD and High is for SSD's. That being said, with a decent hard drive it should run on integrated GPU.
Along with the launch of the game we started our Discord channel! If you want to reach out to developers with questions/suggestions you can do so here:

In the coming weeks we are going to provide a few updates further improving the game, fixing some glitches and bugs(non critical), improving optimization and more! Stay tuned for updates as we are going to announce them beforehand.
Hope everyone enjoys the game!

Tartapolis Update!
Greetings from Poland.
We decided to push back the game release due to a large title launching very near our current date. this way we hope to get a little more time to polish the game and give players a chance to spot our title on the store "shelves" The new release date is:
25.12.2020 r.
With Tartapolis we wanted to bring back the oldschool felling of classical J-RPG, coupled with perspective from Castlevania and action from Resident Evil. The game tells a story, and it's the main driving force. Environment is dynamic, and conditions change when going through the storyline. As the game progresses, new challenges present itself. Richard, the game's protagonist has to develop skills and equipment to deal with the City and progress the story. On his path are diverse enemies and many bosses. Strange characters, S.W.A.R.M(city police) units, bots and creatures inhabit this place, but deeper great darkness awaits!
To achieve the dark mood and techno feel of the game we used Photoshop as the main editing tool for maximum control of 2d graphics displayed in the game. A lot of visual data was fed through PS in the form of 3d renderings using proprietary "cell" shader to achieve the game look and mood. This also allowed us to optimize high resolution images and achieve native 4k resolution(game's HIGH setting). This mode requires quite a bit of data to be moved around and we would recommend to install the game on SSD drive for optimal loading times.
Finally, a little bit about the studio. We're from Poland, currently working remotely a small team of just 2 people. The game development took about two and a half years and it's almost complete now. During that time we gave ourselves total creative freedom to give our game a lot of heart. It is all about the details, small stories NPC tell or notes you find on the way that bring this world to light and unravel the true meaning of the City. We hope everyone enjoys Tartapolis.
P. S: Some raw screenshots from the game showing some of the locations in the game.
