Obscura

Obscura: Shadowfall is a single-player turn-based tactical RPG prototype inspired by Fire Emblem, developed in the Godot Engine.

The project is primarily a technical demo focused on building the core systems behind a grid-based strategy game. These include movement, turn-based combat, ability and status effect systems, enemy AI, UI feedback, scripted events, and supporting development tools.

Each playable unit has a unique set of active and passive abilities, allowing the project to explore different combat roles such as tanks, healers, duelists, debuffers, supports, and more. Abilities are built using reusable resource data so that new skills can be added and adjusted without rewriting the core combat flow.

The combat system supports movement ranges, attack ranges, follow-up attacks, counterattacks, multi-hit abilities, line attacks, area effects, forced movement, post-action movement, death prevention effects, and turn-based status durations.

During development, I also included supporting tools and systems such as editor-placed spawn points, map marker importers, popup and visual effect handling, audio routing, camera controls, and scripted cutscene commands.
