erebus

We have hosted the application erebus in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about erebus:

Erebus is a 2D real-time role-playing game, for Windows, Linux, Symbian and Android. This is under development, though already playable with three quests. Classic point-n-click style RPG, with dungeons to explore, enemies to fight, NPCs to talk to, sub-quests to complete, scenery to interact with, weapons, treasure and other items to find. Also supports Rogue-like keyboard controls.

Binaries available for Windows and Android. Linux must be compiled from source. Older versions are available for Symbian.

I am also developing the underlying game engine so that it can potentially be used to create new RPGs.

Features:

• Multiple quests (currently three, more will be added as development progresses!)
• Also provides randomly generated dungeons to explore.
• Choice of starting characters (currently Barbarian, Elf, Halfling, Ranger, Warrior), each with their own special skills.
• Start straight into the action - none of this "For your first quest, please find your next door neighbour's pet cat".
• Vector-based world rather than tile-based - so items/scenery can be placed in any position, or aligned in any direction.
• 2D animated graphics, with zoom in/out, and lighting effects.
• Completely free and Open Source - no ads, unlike many free Android apps.
• User interface optimised to work with mouse, keyboard and/or touchscreen.
• Cross-platform - available for Windows, Linux, Nokia Symbian and Android devices.

Audience: End Users/Desktop.
