About This Game

On a drive back from a forest festival up in Squam you find Vanbay still roaring as "Riot Odyssey Fest" has taken over the city but it is not the only thing to have taken over the city. As flames soar people seem to be possessed by an infectious tune playing over the radio and in various venues in town.

Step into the enchanting world of "Vanbay: Mosh It Up," a captivating adventure that draws inspiration from classic PSX RPGs like the Mother series, Final Fantasy, and Silent Hill, while infusing modern concepts. Immerse yourself in a narrative-driven experience where every corner of the voxel-based Vancouver holds secrets waiting to be uncovered.

In good old "Pokémon" fashion ally and duel with strangers, save their souls, and turn them back to regular folks who may choose to come with you on this adventure. Recruit almost everyone and anyone in town who can play music to turn the tides and destroy find out why the city is in such shambles.

I will be polishing and expanding on this battle-mini game to add complexity to the battle system.
