Legends of Astravia is a dramatic 2D role-playing game set in a world of magic. It's a love-letter to games of the late 90s and early 2000s such as Golden Sun, FF7, and Grandia. 

It has an explorable overworld filled with puzzles and secrets, a modular skill system (a la Materia), avoidable encounters, and an engaging, timer-based battle system where you have control over the speed that turns pass.

The free demo just released today on itch.io. It gives a short, 1 hour introduction to the game. Please check it out!
