Epic Manager Save
Epic Manager is back with a sweet sale!Jun 27, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsHello everyone, News about the game has been few and far between these past few years as the team at Manavoid has been working hard on many projects including Rainbow Billy (you should try it out!) and secret projects. Epic Manager represents something special for the studio as the game was their first commercialized game and still remains a popular subject topic at the office. But enough about that - today we've slashed the price of the game in half. For the over 10,000 of you whi have the game sitting in their wishlist, it's now or never! We're going to be looking at how the game performs during the sale and make decisions accordingly on the game and its future. Have a wonderful day, The Manavoid teamSteamboat Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan now LIVE on Kickstarter!May 15, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsHello everyone! We've been hard at work in the past year, doing contract work for companies like Borealys Games (Mages of Mystralia) and a few others. Doing this, we've managed to scrounge up enough funds to start making our own IPs again and have been working on a special one in the past few months, Steamboat Billy: The Curse of the Leviathan! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/25720624/2838eb30ae17386387536b0789881d97d86d5b67.jpg Most succinctly described as The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker meets Pokémon, Steamboat Billy is a singleplayer adventure-RPG set in a classic Disney-like universe in which you must defeat and capture strange monsters while sailing the dark seas, in order to rebuild and bring back color to the world you once knew! The dynamic art style grew out of our love of classic 1930s American cartoon aesthetics and the recent indie hit Cuphead. We have re-mixed these vintage cartoon graphics, adding hints of Japanese anime to our characters and implemented modern animation techniques to enhance the game's visual effects. We'd love to get our community's feedback on the game and, of course, any support or sharing of the campaign you can do will certainly go a long way towards helping us reach our goal! ːsteamhappyːYou can see the campaign here.ːsteamhappyː Thanks again for your continued support and feel free to come and chat with us if you want to know more about the game.

Today marks the official release of Epic Manager after more than two years of development following its successful Kickstarter campaign, back in November of 2014. We are very happy to deliver to you the feature complete experience of Epic Manager! The past two years have been absolutely amazing for us. With the support of thousands of players so far, over a thousand Kickstarter backers, and great friends and families, we made it. The game we were so passionate about, the concept we wanted to play but could not because it simply did not exist is now a reality! We are infinitely grateful to everyone that made this possible. So it’s with great pleasure that we are now sharing Epic Manager with the rest of the world by releasing it officially on this day, just in time for the Holidays. It’s unreal to look back at all the hard work, the innumerable hours, the anxiety, and the joys that went into making this game. We are humbled by how much we learned while developing this title and have a newfound respect for every game developer out there. Those of you who followed our progression during the last few months know it, but we are very reactive and we always read all comments and answer questions. Even if the game is feature complete, we will keep monitoring the forums, update the game, and support it should any issues come up. Thanks again, now go explore the realm of Astraeus and, try your luck at becoming the Epic Manager! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/25720624/013e7ec9119e06d56d849710aaf9bb88b53e15cf.png Today's official Full Release comes with Patch v.1.0 with tons of new content, balance changes, bug fixes and other cool improvements! ːsteamhappyː Due to major changes brought by this update, pre-1.0 save files will no longer be compatible with this version. We are sorry for any inconvenience. New and Updated Content! Added 23 Unique Items to each of the game’s bosses with Unique sprites and effects! Added Final Boss Music Track (will update the OST in the next few days)! Added a new God - Lotor - Created by Daniel Hall. Added a TON of new entries and visuals to the Epicopedia, which now acts as a strategy guide and opens a pdf with all of the game’s information. Added a Hall of Fame icon to the Main Menu, showing past campaign performances. End Game narrative conclusions for each faction storyline finished in a campaign. Added Redistributables to the game which should fix the New Game issue that a handful of players were experiencing. New Prestige Class visuals for the Bardbarian (Oops is that a clue to that prestige class recipe?). New Visuals for Paladin Class. Enhanced visuals for many of the game’s panels.

Today marks the official release of Epic Manager after more than two years of development following its successful Kickstarter campaign, back in November of 2014. We are very happy to deliver to you the feature complete experience of Epic Manager! The past two years have been absolutely amazing for us. With the support of thousands of players so far, over a thousand Kickstarter backers, and great friends and families, we made it. The game we were so passionate about, the concept we wanted to play but could not because it simply did not exist is now a reality! We are infinitely grateful to everyone that made this possible. So it’s with great pleasure that we are now sharing Epic Manager with the rest of the world by releasing it officially on this day, just in time for the Holidays. It’s unreal to look back at all the hard work, the innumerable hours, the anxiety, and the joys that went into making this game. We are humbled by how much we learned while developing this title and have a newfound respect for every game developer out there. Those of you who followed our progression during the last few months know it, but we are very reactive and we always read all comments and answer questions. Even if the game is feature complete, we will keep monitoring the forums, update the game, and support it should any issues come up. Thanks again, now go explore the realm of Astraeus and, try your luck at becoming the Epic Manager! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/25720624/013e7ec9119e06d56d849710aaf9bb88b53e15cf.png Today's official Full Release comes with Patch v.1.0 with tons of new content, balance changes, bug fixes and other cool improvements! ːsteamhappyː Due to major changes brought by this update, pre-1.0 save files will no longer be compatible with this version.

Added Redistributables to the game which should fix the New Game issue that a handful of players were experiencing.
