Quinquennial

Quinquennial Logo

Quinquennial is an upcoming 3D, fantasy-themed, hybrid-genre game for Windows PCs and Android devices that is part dungeon crawler, part RPG, and part tactics. It is mainly inspired by classic dungeon crawlers and tactical RPG games. For super retro vibes, Quinquennial is rendered in a voxel world and styled with a classic but functional UI. It features multiple adventurer classes with CRPG-type levelling up, perks, stats and skills, treasure to find, loot drops from monsters, and lots more. Quinquennial has a wide variety of dungeon styles that are procedurally constructed, decorated, populated, and itemized. Dungeon adventuring is undertaken from the outside world wherein much of the story takes place, featuring wilderness exploration, role playing adventure, exploreable towns & locations, and ways of getting into dungeons. Guiding you through the overworld is a campaign of turn-based tactical battles for you to master using your customizable dragon automaton. It is a story of disaster, struggle, and triumph taking place over a time of five years, the most consequential five years of our protagonists’ life…

The following videos and screen shots are from very early development. Lots of things have changed since then. I leave them here for posterity’s sake.

  • Platforms: Releasing initially for Android and Windows. Others are likely down the road: iOS, WebGL, consoles.

  • Current status: Early Alpha.

  • Release date: Hopefully by the end of 2026.

  • Publisher: Self (ABCodeworld).

  • Classic CRPG style dungeon crawling with real-time combat. You must gather materials, knowledge, and personal experience, to succeed in the dragon automaton fighting circuit! This knowledge and power is found deep in the procedurally generated dungeons, catacombs, towers and other monster infested places that make it deadly to travel into the countryside. No two dungeons are alike, with billions of possible layouts featuring both hand-crafted and generated rooms!

  • Tactical turn-based battles using your customizable dragon automaton versus your opponent’s to win money, salvage, and advance your rank to qualify for the tournament, by the time five years passes in the game! Your skill as an artificer will be tested.

  • Story development, exploration, and interaction with NPCs takes place in a city. You will be able to walk the streets and enter relevant locations such as artificers’ shops, the palace, your hideout, the Mech-Sages’ guild and barracks, and more.

  • Your hideout (a combination of residence and workshop) can be personalized in layout and contents. Aka sandbox mode! Add a storage room or mount a creature trophy on the wall, etc.

  • Level up your character’s skills depending on your choice of class, and use your adventuring spoils to grow your automaton’s power alongside your own.

  • Many stats and skills to try out different play experiences, and several classes planned for release!

  • Enhance your customized dragon automaton with new designs and capabilities… but be ready to foot the bill if it gets smashed up in a fight!

  • Unlock the secrets of stellar metals to gain temporal magic abilities in dungeon game play!

  • Learn the origin of the blighted countryside known as The Scar, the history of how the dragons were banished, and why the Sovereign wants all the stellar metal.

  • Keep your true identity concealed as you rise through the ranks of the Mech-Sages, a technology focused branch of the Sovereign’s overpowering military forces.

  • Supports any screen size or orientation. It changes in real-time along with your device. No need to adjust settings or restart!

  • High Graphics and Low Graphics modes are available. In Low Graphics mode, the game will be smoothly playable on devices that are several years old. On PCs, or more recent mobile devices, the game can run in High Graphics mode at 60 FPS.
