After 2 years in Early Access (and over 5 years of development time!), we're finally ready to release Tanzia, IN A WEEK! March 28th is the day! Since April 2017 when Tanzia was released in Early Access (and also later on Nintendo Switch), we listened to our players –to those who loved the game, and especially to those who hated it. We took a long hard look at what we had and decided to improve…
Hey everyone! After we released on Switch and Steam Early Access, we took all the feedback we received to heart. We heard it all, comments about melee being weak, people not liking the floating combat text, the animations being too generic... We know it took a long time to fix all that, but hopefully when you see all the new stuff we added to Tanzia, you'll forgive us! : ) So let me walk you th…
Hey everyone! Just wanted to make a quick announcement to let you know what we're up to! We promised to have the Steam build ready really close to the Switch launch, but after releasing on the Nintendo portable we received a lot of feedback. Most of it was great, people loved the game and the story. But at the same time some people commented on melee, and how it wasn't up to par with the rest o…

Hey everyone! Did I tell you we're releasing Tanzia tomorrow July 19th on Nintendo Switch? (and really soon on Steam).

Can you believe after all these years, we're less a week away from Tanzia's Nintendo Switch launch? To celebrate this momentous occasion, Jason (our lead designer, Tanzia's mastermind) wants to give away his boxed, mint condition, still with that new console smell, Nintendo 64! OMG!!! A NINTENDO Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOOUR!!!! : O In Jason's own words: "I've always loved comics and video games. I'm als…
Hey all, You might have already heard that we have a couple of Tanzia comics. The story is a big focus in Tanzia and we had a lot of fun creating and telling it. So we had the idea that comics would let us focus on specific parts of the story in more detail. Also Saige and I always wanted to make a comic book :) The first comic tells the story of Grandfather Mako's discovery of Arcanity and his…
Remember back in October when we announced Tanzia will be premiering on Nintendo Switch? Well, we finally have a release date! It's July 19th! (OF THIS YEAR!) "But Mr Game Dev guy, I'm reading this on Steam, I don't have a fancy Nintendo Switch!" you might be saying, and to that we reply "We have Steam news too!" : D So here's the Nintendo Switch news: · Tanzia is releasing on July 19th in both…

This is the first step into the Skeleton Kin…
Since launching on Early Access we've heard two main complains: the kill 10 Akiri birds in 10 seconds quest is too hard, and the kill 3 turtles with 1 fireball one is frustrating. "boom shakalaka" Oh no! There's a timer! We love the first Akiri Birds quest, we think it's a good challenge and while being hard, it used to give players the tools they need to face the rest of the game. So when we w…

Hey everybody! Let's start with the bad news, Tanzia won't make it into 2016. We're really sorry about this. We worked super hard to try and have it ready this year, but to make the best possible version of the game, we need a bit more time. So right now we're looking at March as a possible release date. And as soon as we're 100% comfortable with an exact date, you're going to hear about it her…
