I've always dreamed of making a Tactical RPG, but I never thought I was skilled enough to do it.

A few years ago, I had a weird yet fascinating dream of an RPG where the party was formed by Superman, Batman, Venom and John Lennon.

In 2020, I decided to make both these dreams come true.

Our protagonist is Vince Heart, a pure hearted guy who is just trying to be a nice person in a world where kindness and empathy are becoming rare commodities. Vince is constantly bothered by how selfish everyone is. One day, a mysterious encounter changes him deeply, making him develop powers beyond his wildest imagination. And, as you may well know, with great power comes great responsibility. Whatever is wrong with the world, Vince believes he should do something about it. A series of bizarre events leads him to team up with Superman, Batman and John Lennon. This unlikely team is set on a quest to save the world. But saving a world that does not want to be saved will prove to be a lonely quest.

The game alternates between cutscenes and battles.
Cutscenes play like comic book pages. Certain dialog choices give you status boosts corresponding to the choice you make. Also, some moments are played like small minigames, like tracking an enemy or trying to get a loan from friends.

Battle-wise, The Lonely League is a Tactical RPG like Fire Emblem, Shining Force and Final Fantasy Tactics. You control a small group of characters, but there is plenty of room for strategy and customization.

The main feature of the system is you are able to interact with map events, other than just attack them. Talking to enemies can have multiple effects. You can make them change their attack patterns, or in many cases get them to join your party for the duration of that battle. You can also interact with objects, activating, disabling or moving them, which can have environmental effects.

Victory is not always achieved by killing every enemy on map, and most battles will have multiple paths to victory.



Character progression is achieved by gaining experience from battles and spending them on skill trees, which unlock both stats upgrades and skills. As the game progresses, characters gain additional classes, each one with its unique skill tree. Upgrades are stacked among different classes, so characters can combine powers from different sources and players can design their own combos and strategies.
