Raven Errant

Coming Soon™

 "Raven Errant" is the name of my new game, who's development I have been showcasing on this blog for the last 12 months. It's a third person hack and slash were roaming bands of raiders move about campsites looking for loot and plunder, often from each other. 

The player starts off wearing a pair of comedy boxer shorts with a love heart print, and steals the clothes off corpses, flogs them in exchange for XP, and then upgrades their stats to equip better clothing, armour and weapons.

The player can enlist in these roving warbands - if they will have then, or they can  wander alone, picking off stragglers and leveling up to become a one man master of battle. There are some good reasons for enlisting, firstly safety in numbers, ask any school of fish, but also that if you follow a team around you get rewarded with free XP, making stat upgrading a little less of a hardship.

Friendly Carolingians are friendly

 Raven Errant will be launching as an Early Access title soon™, initially featuring 8 Raiding Parties which is around half the planned number, and in chronological order is from around the 5th Century (Avars) and up to the 11th Century (Normans). When complete there will be twice the number of Warbands and much more equipment, armour and weaponry will be available.

Raven Errant is currently waiting in review on Steam, so the Store Page is not live yet, but will hopefully be available in a week or so.
