Managate, a Pixel-Art RPG Blending Action and Base Defense, Announces Playable Demo and New Trailer
Capture Fantastical Creatures to Fortify Your Base and Automate your army in a Side-Scrolling Adventure, Coming to Steam
Indie developer Parramatta Games Studios has today announced the release of a new announcement trailer and a publicly available demo for Managate. Available now on Steam, the demo provides the first hands on opportunity for players to experience Managate's unique blend of side-scrolling action RPG combat, strategic base defense, and creature-capturing mechanics. The new trailer showcases the game's beautifully crafted pixel-art world and frantic, spell-slinging action.
In Managate, players take on the role of a powerful spellcaster tasked with defending their base from relentless waves of griffins, dragons, and other fantastical creatures. The core of the game lies in its unique gameplay loop: survive the onslaught, then venture out to capture a variety of allies, including elves, dwarves, and orcs. Each captured creature offers unique abilities, from automating resource collection to joining the front lines of defense, allowing players to strategically build and upgrade their fortress between attacks.
The game is set in a fantasy world brought to life with pixel art animations. As players progress, they will gather resources to fund research into powerful upgrades and discover new spell effects. By finding and combining these effects, players can create devastating, overpowered spells to obliterate their enemies and turn the tide of battle. The goal is to create the perfect automated defense strategy to survive against increasingly monstrous hordes.
Key Features:
- Capture and Command: Recruit an army of elves, goblins, and other creatures, each with unique abilities to fortify your base and automate tasks.
- Defend Against Waves: Fend off relentless ground and air attacks from a host of fantastical monsters in side-scrolling, action-packed combat.
- Craft Overpowered Spells: Find and combine magical effects to create unique and powerful spells to annihilate your foes.
- Automate and Upgrade: Use gathered resources to research powerful upgrades for your base, your spells, and your captured allies to create the ultimate defence.
- Beautiful Pixel-Art World: Explore a richly detailed fantasy world, from your besieged base to the lands where rare creatures roam.
Availability: The Managate demo is available to download for free on Steam for PC now. The full game is planned for release on Q4 2025.
