Welcome to Darsana! A standalone game in the works for the Darkplaces engine' Darsana is a combination of a fast paced first person shooter, and a detailed statistics system and strategies of an RPG' Darsana runs along the lines of a fantasy medieval time including magic, and one of the opposition forces being the Undead' It is solely multiplayer and meant for 5-30 people per server'
Gameplay:
Slots ~

[1] Melee weapon - Swords, axes, and the shields'

[2] Ranged weapon - Ranged weapons that do kinetic damage, crossbows, etc

[3] Magic - Staffs, anything related to magic attacks in weapon form

You play as either the Knights (humans) or the Undead' Each force has their own fortress and god' The goal of the game is to destroy the opposing force's god' The gods are located in the center or an easily guarded area within each force's fortress' The gods will have a high HP such as 5000' Once destroying the god the force who destroys it wins the round'

The "money system" is based off of gold' The way to purchase high priced items is to slay your enemies and collect their gold' Every player who joins a server starts with just the spiked club, a relatively weak and free weapon' Once killed you respawn in the "buy mode" where you can purchase new weapons'

You can purchase any item in the buy section for any slot if your gold can amount to the price, but you gain experience from killing with each weapon' So someone who has been using the crossbow the entire round most likely is more accurate and reloads faster with it, same for all other weapons'

After the initial release of Darsana beta 1.0 there was a hotfix within 24 hours to combat the major issues, now that those are fixed more features can be added and hopefully improve the overall gameplay and look of Darsana.

Current beta 1.1 upcoming features:

  • All new animations / hands for weapons
  • Charged attacks for melee weapons
  • infinite blocking with all weapons even without buckler
  • learned abilities while leveling up with magic staffs
  • Also due to engine updates (thanks to LordHavoc):

  • Client side prediction
  • HDR bloom

    SadGamer: do not fret, Darsana2.0 will run, and look better than ever before. Please don't take beta 1.0 to heart, we're working hard on the next version and it'd mean the world if you guys didn't give up on us! :)
