NOMIA (Demo v0.9.2)
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Your world has two faces.
The Tower anchors us to the Dream, a realm that swallows forgotten sorrows.
By battling the past to sustain the present, dream-divers can find any treasure imaginable.
We have eradicated scarcity.
We have outgrown war.
But a rot has emerged from the root of the stone.
Utopia crumbles from within, and its hero has gone missing.
We are chasing salvation with cloth and steel.
We are running out of time.
NOMIA is a story-rich tactics roguelike where two heroes coordinate to execute brilliant skill combos.
Guide a warrior and a wizard through a mystifying tale. Harness grid-based strategy and deep deckbuilding mechanics to battle gorgeously illustrated foes. Blast monsters off cliffs, steal their cards, and sling spear and spell to reach the horizon.
Your hand has two halves.
Your Actions persist between turns, but have charges and cooldowns.
Your Gambits are drawn from your deck each turn, and are discarded when played.
Set up combos with your ever-reliable Actions, or execute masterstrokes by drafting and drawing just the right Gambits.
Your party has two heroes.
The Mighty has more Actions. The Magical has more Gambits.
Each has a deck of 50 cards expressing their distinct personality and fighting style. Each can access a pool of 100+ Memories both unique and shared which create powerful synergies.
Each has bonds to strengthen and stories to witness after each night's expedition is complete.
Your foes have tells.
Enemy intents and incoming damage are shown before you commit any movement. Comprehensive information guides clever defense and brilliant counterplays.
Outsmart your foes with precise movement and solid defense. Protect your ally by drawing their attention with an attack. Or, simply kick enemies into a pit with the right positioning and the right knockback card.
Your path is winding.
Each of the five realms features its own monsters, items, and terrain. Battle mechanically diverse foes and powerful bosses as you grow in strength and connection.
Discover the truth behind a mysterious disappearance as a stone-eating scourge devours your home.
Dive deep into the Dream, and play your cards well.
This is a work in progress! The current build represents a substantial chunk of the game, and will continue to receive updates as I develop.

I found your demo via the Steam Fest and I am instantly enchanted by the vibe, art style, music and gameplay. I only dip'd my toe in but will def devour whenever a full build happens.
Maybe this is just me seeing what I wanna. But was it intentional choice to make the characters sort of queer coded? Are any of them canoniclly queer? Dig the graphics, I was just wondering how much of a choice this was.
Ty in advance and GJ! <3
Ahh thank you so much! I'll do my best!
Also, I have good news for you -- every single character is queer. It's not the direct focus of the story, but it's what I am, and it's what they are.
was just checking in on this itch.io page after remembering the hidden gem of overclocked. glad u guys r still at it! this looks awesome :] im def gonna give it a try
Thank you! I hope you enjoy!
I LOVE this! Anything with Tactics as inspiration is amazing to me. What are the chances we'll get a mac build eventually?
Thank you so much! I'm hoping to have a mac build soon; I don't have a mac myself so I'll need to figure out the process, but it's a goal!
Awesome! Also I’m happy to fill out QA/Playtesting forms. I might have some friends/colleagues with Macs that could do the same if it helps.
Thank you! I'll keep that in mind once I get started on the process! :D
As of 0.4.0, I've made a Mac build! I have no guarantees that it works, but hopefully it runs smoothly since I'm not doing too much fancy stuff with the graphics.
yes!! I’ll check it out and let you know how it runs :)
I only just realized you're the group that made Overclocked.I had no idea why this game was appearing on my feed lmao.
Holy shit I'm so glad you're back this is amazing!I actually need to try this now!
Ahh, thanks for stopping by! :D I'm flattered that you remember Overclocked!
Hey! I tested the demo and loved your game! I'm a huge fan of Final Fantasy Tactics and Slay the Spire!
I noticed that your game has all the audio with placehold assets and I wanted to tell you, I'm a composer! How can we get in touch to discuss further (if you are interested)?
My discord, if you want to get in touch directly: guigagliardo
Thanks so much! I'm already working with a composer currently, but I appreciate you reaching out!
Thanks for replying!
