Inspirations
Shield Maiden is a hypothetical game I'm making dev logs for in order to help me further flush out my story, word lore, as well as forge the narrative. It takes place in a medieval fantasy world that I have been developing for a few years. Though I have many stories and timelines within the setting, Shield Maiden in particular is one story that I believe deserves to be developed. In truth, I want to make a comic/manga series from it, but as I am a game dev, I believe this process will help me through my worldbuilding, story writing and design processes. While I don’t remotely have the skill, time nor budget to produce such a game, it is still nice to think about. And hey! Maybe one day it will become a game! Fingers crossed!
The world of Eras takes HEAVY inspirations from gritty historical realism, along with a massive dose of fantastical elements. I have littered my works with many facets from the various franchises/works that inspired me. With my own twists of course. Through gameplay, I want to reflect this as well. Narratively, mechanically and visually. As an open world action rpg, Shield Maiden will takes inspiration from the following properties:
