The wizard hero Nostramagus is nowhere to be found, but you\u2019ve stolen (borrowed?) one of his magic wands and are taking matters into your own tiny hands.

It\u2019s up to you to master these forms and their powers to defeat the Calamity.<\/p>\n<p>After tackling platformers (<em>Mutant Blobs Attack!!!<\/em>), metroidvanias (<em>Guacamelee!<\/em>) and dungeon crawlers (<em>Severed<\/em>), we wanted to try making an Action-RPG the Drinkbox way. To us, that means getting rid of our frustration points, and adding as much charm and variety as possible.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/drinkbox-studios-presents-nobody-saves-the-world.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-151578\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>For example, you don\u2019t grind enemies to level up or unlock forms in <em>Nobody Saves the World<\/em>. Instead, you complete quests. There\u2019s lots of quests to complete and while some are serious (\u201ckill 10 enemies without getting hit\u201d) some are less so (\u201cfall in love,\u201d \u201cget sat on\u201d). Early on, you\u2019ll learn to mix and match the abilities of your forms, opening a bazillion combos. A knight that bites everything like a rat? A robot that gallops around like a horse? You bet!<\/p>\n<p>As you explore the game\u2019s vast overworld, you\u2019ll discover dungeons and battle through them to push back the Calamity. A dungeon might be a castle or cave, but it might also be a giant rotting pumpkin or a crashed UFO. Dungeons are procedurally generated to make sure the game stays fresh and gets increasingly difficult the further you go. There\u2019s always a new dungeon, form, quest, or challenge just around the corner.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/drinkbox-studios-presents-nobody-saves-the-world-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-151580\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>A final bit of excitement to leave you with: we\u2019re super jazzed to have composer Jim Guthrie (<em>Superbrothers: Sword &amp; Sworcery EP<\/em>, <em>Below<\/em>, \u201cIndie Game: The Movie\u201d) on board for the soundtrack!
