Publisher Those Awesome Guys and developer Rose City Games have announced Floppy Knights, a game that combines the tactical elements of games like Advance Wars and Fire Emblem with the deck-building mechanics of games like Slay the Spire. It will launch for PC via Steam sometime in 2020.
Hey there, humans. It’s me, Carlton! Phoebe’s most trusted friend… and coolest arm, if I do say so myself.
Now, who’s Phoebe, you ask? She's a talented inventor and programmer with a taste for the finer things in life and prefers to work smarter, not harder. Her mission: save up enough cash to finally move outta her parents’ place.
That’s where I come in! Phoebe created me, her bionic arm and best friend, to help her achieve her goals. Not only am I brilliant, handsome, and funny, but I’ve also got a neat trick up my sleeve - I can take regular old floppy disks and turn them into these handy-dandy projections we call “Floppy Knights!” They’re super useful for just about any task… especially when it’s time to throw down on the battlefield.
With the help of our new buddies, the occasional odd job has turned into a steady side hustle… but things are getting a bit more intense than we bargained for! Bigger and badder monsters keep popping up and now Phoebe’s not so sure about this whole “hero” role… but I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s chat about all the sweet stuff you’ll get to do in the game!
