Tower of Modula (Early Access)
A downloadable game for Windows
Tower of Modula is a game about climbing a tower in hopes of finding everything that the heroes of legend wanted to keep secret.
This is a retro-style turn-based RPG. You play as a trio of strangers looking to reach the top of the tower: a vampire, a wizard, and a jester.
It's light on story and largely focuses on combat and building your party how you want it.

It's also what I'm dubbing an Arena RPG, a type of game I've been fiddling with and made up a name for. To me, an Arena RPG is a combat-focused RPG that takes place in a very contained area, like a singular building. It has less of an emphasis on travel when compared to a "Dungeon Crawling RPG."
This game is still early in development and I would love to hear feedback from you, especially on combat balance! I hope to patch this demo every month or two with new content. I plan to make the tower about 20 floors tall. If you're curious how long this demo currently is, it currently contains 11 floors and takes approximately 1 hour to complete.
The demo is [unfortunately] only available for Windows currently. It will be available for Mac when it's closer to completion.
If you're curious, Modula is pronounced like the word "modular" without the R.
Have fun, and thank you for playing!
