The setting we will be exploring in the game is called The Old Empire, a region of the world where the struggle for power have divided a once great nation into several rival kingdoms and city-states. All funds gathered here will be used to further develop the game and enhance it.Īnd this is just getting started! I hope I can count on your support.īlackThorne Keep Chronicles is set on a new world called Paragonia, based on the tabletop RPG setting I've been working for almost 20 years. Now, if you're interested in the project and want to help make it real, please do! At this point, I'm doing all of the development alone, learning code and buying assets from artists, and this kind of stuff is not cheap. Hopefully in a few years you will be able to get a fully realized product - no hard feelings!

If you decide to contribute to the project and buy the game in its current form, please understand that you're not buying a final product - it's far from that! The objective at this point is to gather a community to help bring this vision to life, and if you’re looking for customer support or a fully developed experience, don't buy it now. That said, it's important to make clear that this is not (yet) a product.

In 2020, with the COVID-19 pandemic, I had the opportunity to start learning Unreal 4, and decided to turn all my years of gaming and RPGing into something new: a BlackThorne Keep ARPG with next gen technology - gathering all the stories of friends and foes along these years of online and analog gaming to create an original electronic Action RPG.Īnd that's why I'm on itch.io! Here I intend to gather the enthusiasts of this world and genre to help fund the project, while keeping a line open with the people interested.

I've been passionate about gaming and RPGs for all my life and studied Screenwriting, Cinema and Filmmaking. Hi! My name is Roberto Garcia and I'm the founder of the BlackThorne Keep gaming community and writer of the PARAGONIA RPG, a low fantasy tabletop RPG that takes place in a world akin to 16th century Europe and Americas.
