Ecliptica: Game Overview

Ecliptica

Tactical squad RPG where four players command sigils, breach vaults, and share a single pool of resolve.

Pitch in one paragraph

Ecliptica is a 2–4 player tactical squad RPG set in the shattered realm of the Fracture. Players choose Sigil-Knights with specialised bindings, push together through hand-authored vaults, and decide (every run) how to spend a shared pool of resolve. Death is rare; sacrifice is constant. Every choice rewrites the lobby’s post-run codex.

Pillars

1. Co-op that survives no-comms. Read intent at a glance; ping-only runs feel as good as voice.
2. Shared resolve as the only currency that matters. Loot is texture; resolve is decision-making.
3. Hand-authored vaults over procedural slop. Every map is fingerprinted by a level designer.
