The Labours of Heracles

An RPG style game created for the Greek Mytholojam 2018. Created in a similar style to early Final Fantasy, Zelda and Pokemon games, the player assumes the role of legendary Greek Hero Heracles (otherwise known as Hercules). Play as Heracles as you complete the fabled Labours for King Eurystheus, as penance for severe crimes.

NOTE: This is just a short prototype, created for the Greek Mytholojam 2018. 

Gameplay

Styled after classic RPGs/JRPGs from the past.

Navigate the ancient greek world, stumbling upon powerful creatures and legendary beasts.

This game is just a demo, the full game is currently a work in progress.

Also, please note: while the game attempts to stay faithful to the myths of Heracles, obviously these myths have had many re-tellings over the years.  This is our interpretation of those myths, with all sorts of extras added in to provide a more entertaining storyline.
