Hey, everybody! We know that some people are on the verge of getting Tanzia, but they'd like to try it first. So we've just released a Tanzia FREE DEMO on Steam! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2Fb077fd3317e498a0347f5c31d6bfeb01aa3aaa8b.png The demo lets you play until the Docks chapter, so you'll get the chance to fight 2 mini bosses and upgrade your gear, check some sidequests and even one of the comic books!

- 03/28/2019 FULL LAUNCH! - 21 March 2019
After 2 years in Early Access (and over 5 years of development time!), we're finally ready to release Tanzia, IN A WEEK! March 28th is the day! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2Fe49a14b83481940669f4f79d12494165d413df75.gif Since April 2017 when Tanzia was released in Early Access (and also later on Nintendo Switch), we listened to our players –to those who loved the game, and especially to those who hated it. We took a long hard look at what we had and decided to improve and polish every single area of the game: the animations, melee combat, spells, gem system, crafting... (Please read our prior post for more detail on some of the changes) So the players who loved the old systems will now have a lot of new things to discover and master, and those who dismissed it then can now give it a fresh look, and hopefully change their minds. To celebrate th…
- OMG! It's almost here! - 4 February 2019
Hey everyone! After we released on Switch and Steam Early Access, we took all the feedback we received to heart. We heard it all, comments about melee being weak, people not liking the floating combat text, the animations being too generic... We know it took a long time to fix all that, but hopefully when you see all the new stuff we added to Tanzia, you'll forgive us! : ) So let me walk you through some of the biggest changes. Animations We remade most of the main character's animations, everything from run, jump, directional damage, spellcasting, etc. We now even have proper walk, strafe and jump melee animations and directional spellcasting! Everything looks new and fresh! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2F4214d4eed55fe62472f4bca88573775d53d673cf.png Check out my fancy new fall animation! Combat We've spent a lot of time improving melee combat…
- A little update! - 31 August 2018
https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2F422211534b5783d8a965b75b2ecae4523fa61efe.jpg Hey everyone! Just wanted to make a quick announcement to let you know what we're up to! We promised to have the Steam build ready really close to the Switch launch, but after releasing on the Nintendo portable we received a lot of feedback. Most of it was great, people loved the game and the story. But at the same time some people commented on melee, and how it wasn't up to par with the rest of the game. So we've decided to revamp melee to make it as awesome as the rest of the game. This means the full version of Tanzia needs a little more time in the oven... But as promised, you can access the beta build on Steam right now, and play what's practically the same content as we have on Switch! If you want to play the beta content right now, this is what you need to do: /…

- Win Jason's Nintendo Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOOUR!!!! - 17 July 2018
Can you believe after all these years, we're less a week away from Tanzia's Nintendo Switch launch? To celebrate this momentous occasion, Jason (our lead designer, Tanzia's mastermind) wants to give away his boxed, mint condition, still with that new console smell, Nintendo 64! OMG!!! A NINTENDO Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOOUR!!!! : O https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2F00566e01559d0b8318fbde2d0d30f4c6a0a5aa62.gif In Jason's own words: "I've always loved comics and video games. I'm also a bit of a collector. A few years ago I bought a mint condition Nintendo 64 still in the original box. I've decided to give it away. I'm reluctant to give it up, but with Tanzia launching on Switch, this seems like a good time." https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2Fb18d9aed868340be48d8c48de136ce4f1f5da1a1.jpg just look at this beauty! https…
- Tanzia Comic Books! (And How To Get One) - 4 July 2018
Hey all, You might have already heard that we have a couple of Tanzia comics. The story is a big focus in Tanzia and we had a lot of fun creating and telling it. So we had the idea that comics would let us focus on specific parts of the story in more detail. Also Saige and I always wanted to make a comic book :) The first comic tells the story of Grandfather Mako's discovery of Arcanity and his original battle with The Skeleton King. The 2nd comic continues later some years after the first and fills in some details about Grandfather's disappearance. I'm really happy with how both comics came out. I wish we had the time and resources to do more. I had so much fun with them honestly after doing the first 2 comics I wanted to make a series of 10 or 20 comic books that tells the whole story arc of Grandfather and The Young Hero. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc%25E2%2580%25A6

Remember back in October when we announced Tanzia will be premiering on Nintendo Switch? Well, we finally have a release date! It's July 19th! (OF THIS YEAR!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPyKrmSEYHM "But Mr Game Dev guy, I'm reading this on Steam, I don't have a fancy Nintendo Switch!" you might be saying, and to that we reply "We have Steam news too!" : D So here's the Nintendo Switch news: Tanzia is releasing on July 19th in both the Americas, Europe and Australia. https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/tanzia-switch https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F8805370%2F73aa9d0f3558580acb362f2c889cd95e84a0f227.png It's almost here!

- Comic books, ports, OMG! So much to do! - 5 October 2017
Hey everyone! We have some big news we want to share with you. First of all, the Steam version of Tanzia is coming along fine, we're finishing the ending area, working on some localizations and polishing the whole game so it looks awesome at launch. Also, some news we're really excited about: Tanzia is also coming to the Nintendo Switch! A very early mockup of what touch controls could look like on the Switch. That also sadly means that the Steam version of Tanzia needs to be pushed back a little bit : ( We've been given the opportunity to launch on the Switch in the coming months, and to be able to make it, we need to focus 100% on that build. Since we're developing the game using Unity3D, improvements to the Switch version will also be reflected on the Steam build. So you'll see gamepad control improvements, faster loading and smoother scene transitions, higher frame rates, and more!…

- We listen to you! - 14 July 2017
Since launching on Early Access we've heard two main complains: the kill 10 Akiri birds in 10 seconds quest is too hard, and the kill 3 turtles with 1 fireball one is frustrating. "boom shakalaka" Oh no! There's a timer! We love the first Akiri Birds quest, we think it's a good challenge and while being hard, it used to give players the tools they need to face the rest of the game. So when we were watching LetsPlay videos or streams, we'd see them dying a few times on it, but then they'd go on and kill all the skeletons at the Docks in one try. But we also saw a lot of people experiencing that quest as a literal wall. They'd just die over and over again, getting super frustrated in the process, and sometimes simply quitting the game since they saw no way around it. So instead of asking you to kill 10 birds in 10 seconds, now the quest only asks you to kill more than 1 bird with 1 attack…
