A card game based on the works of, “The Grandfather of Manga”, Osamu Tezuka. Join the city gangs as they vie for power. Support the robot uprising. Heal.. some stuff??? Or join the Ministry of Science.
A new strategy card game based in the dark but fun world of Astro Boy.
In the vein of hearthstone with leaning towards Elder Scrolls: Legends and Magic: the Gathering.
From the Kickstarter:
“In his 40 years as a mangaka or manga artist, Osamu Tezuka created over 700 series and is credited as the Godfather of Anime. The most notable of his series are known around the world, and include Astro Boy (known as Tetsuwan Atom in Japan), Phoenix, and Black Jack. At a time when comics and cartoons were made almost exclusively for comedy, Tezuka sought to incorporate tears, grief, anger, and hate into stories where the endings were not always cut and dry.”
“In partnership with his son Makoto Tezuka, we celebrate Osamu Tezuka, not just for his incredible art and the sheer volume of work that he produced throughout his life, but also for the incredible breadth of genres he covered. From horror, to action, to children’s stories, people from every walk of life found something to love in Tezuka’s vast library of creations.
His work popularized manga around the world, profoundly shaped modern-day anime, and influenced numerous artists who have created their own successful anime and manga series.”
“This game takes the shared universe of characters and the Star System that Tezuka created over his illustrious career and continues the story in a whole new setting. Drawing from themes and narratives previously established or hinted at in Tezuka’s work, our aim is to reintroduce these wonderful worlds to fans old and new. This is the world of ASTRO BOY: EDGE OF TIME.”
“Unique Positional Combat: players have access to two rows in combat: an offensive row where cards are able to attack the enemy, but cannot protect the player, and the defensive row where cards defend incoming attacks but are unable to initiate attacks.
Reimagined Characters: Fresh new redesigns of Tezuka’s most famous characters crafted by Japan’s most legendary illustrators.
Story Mode: Experience a whole new adventure with Astro and other famous Tezuka characters that intertwines a deep storyline with unique card-based combat.
Multiplayer: Battle other players in multiple ranked and unranked online modes and prove yourself as the best summoner in The Sprawl.
Ongoing Development: The experience is always growing! Regular updates for ASTRO BOY: EDGE OF TIME will add new cards, new story mode episodes, and new multiplayer modes, so there’s always something new around the corner.”
