Arkandian Legends Series

Undefined

I always wanted to create a fully fleshed out RPG game in flash, there were however many limitations with the platform. This series of games were very popular as they offered a full gaming experience inside a free web game.

As the series progressed more and more quality of life enhancements were added and I was able to learn a lot about where players struggled. The games offered some advanced features such as:

- Allowing the player to collect and build furniture and construct their own house
- Tactical combat alongside solo combat, equipping multiple characters
- Automatic combat setting to reduce constant clicking
- While graphically rudimentary, a full paperdoll and avatar system
- Procedurally generated levels

Games in Series

Sponsored by Kongregate, the Arkandian series of games were an attempt to create a multi-chapter RPG in flash. Playing each game in the series would unlock various advantages and features in future games encouraging players to play them all. Incentives were also included to encourage playing on the sponsor's site and registering to help convert casual visitors into registered users.
