| 03/28/2019 FULL LAUNCH! | 2019-03-21 | 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://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/8805370/e49a14b83481940669f4f79d12494165d413df75.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 f |
| OMG! It's almost here! | 2019-02-04 | 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 spellcastin |

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 nee |

| Win Jason's Nintendo Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOOUR!!!! | 2018-07-17 | 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!!!

| Tanzia Comic Books! (And How To Get One) | 2018-07-04 | 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 mor |
