About This Game

Summary

A brutal medieval turn-based RPG where scars, survival, and choices define your story. Face bloody duels, shifting factions, and moral dilemmas in a dying world where every decision leaves a mark.

Core Concept

Scarred Steel is a story-rich, tactical RPG with grounded medieval combat and a heavy focus on consequences. Inspired by Heads Will Roll and classic dark RPGs, it blends brutal 1v1 duels, strategic preparation, and narrative choice into a journey of survival and betrayal.

Key Features

⚔ Tactical Duels With Weight
Combat is immediate and lethal. Position, stamina, weapon reach, and balance all matter. Every duel feels like a fight for your life.

🩸 Scars That Shape Your Character
No magical healing here. Every wound, scar, and limitation follows you forward — influencing how you fight, rest, and prepare.

🏰 A Living, Reactive World
Your ethos — mercy, cruelty, honor, deceit — changes how factions, NPCs, and storylines unfold. Friends can become rivals, allies can betray, and towns will remember.

📜 Branching, Replayable Narratives
Each run unfolds differently through dynamic encounters, rival NPCs, and moral choices. Scarred Steel is built for replayability — no two journeys are the same.

⚖ A Town Hub Between Battles
Rest at the inn, train your body, gamble in the tavern, buy from smiths, or enter the arena. Every preparation step shapes how far you’ll get.

🌑 A Gritty Medieval World
Plague, betrayal, and survival set the tone. Scarred Steel pulls no punches — this is a grounded, harsh medieval world where power and morality collide.

🗒️Note From Ethan The Developer

All the game's code, images and videos were made all with AI, AKA I've built this game without knowing how to code. If you like the game or have interest in my journey, you can check out my YouTube to see how I built the game!

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Scarred Steel uses AI-assisted workflows during development.

Art & Media: Promotional art, icons, and cutscene illustrations were created or refined using AI tools.

Video Assets: Trailer clips and cinematic backdrops were enhanced with AI-based generation or editing.

Code: All gameplay systems, scripts, and runtime code are hand-written. No AI generates code dynamically during play.

Gameplay Assets: Core gameplay visuals (UI, animations, in-game items) are curated, refined, and integrated manually.

In short: AI helped in production pipelines, but no AI runs live in the game itself.

This game contains depictions of graphic medieval combat, including blood, injury, and themes of survival.
