What is New Brass Hollow: High Profile?

An RPG inspired by Baldur's Gate 3 & Paper Mario set in the 1920s era of a fantasy world. This Project is very early in it's development. It's been designed with a huge focus on player expression, both in its narrative and it's combat; which blends the tactical nature of games like Baldur's Gate 3, with the fun skill-based minigames of the Paper Mario franchise.

This Project is in very early development!

Please note that this is a vertical slice of a vertical slice, it might feel unfinished because it is; anything seen here is not final.

What's The Plot?

You were a star witness on a case against the mob some years ago; in retaliation, the mob threatened and hired bounties on you, causing you to need to flee the city of New Brass Hollow and go into witness protection; now, 9 years after the death of the mob's don, you find yourself able to return; leaving behind the dusty and chaotic western town of Barigora Ridge in the Feywest. Unfortunately, you find out almost immediately that the mob hasn't forgotten you, and you need to seek the protection of a faction in order to be safe. Your choice of faction to side with are:

1. The Electric Enclave. The Government, the cops.
2. The Gearbreakers. Ecoterrorists, hellbent on preserving nature by any means necessary.
3. The Brasslouts. Technologically savvy criminals, the only ones who've learned how to hack forged-folk (partially magic, partially tech robots).
4. The Quorum Arcana. While not actually a faction you can side with, the Quorum Arcana, a collective of wizards and academics that run the department of education for the city, find themselves as the only neutral party in these disputes, and no matter what faction you side with; you can seek their aid. Their only presence in the demo is that of a coven of drunk frat bros on the Blimp headed back to the city.

(Majority of the plot not implemented in v-alpha-0.1, but the systems for further development are!)

Where's the Download Option?
