Hey there everyone,
This is the official thread for the completely free release of my stand-alone complete game Deg-Deg the Ravenous! Deg-Deg the Ravenous was made in three months including playtesting as a proof of concept for a large game concept I had. In it’s own right it’s a fully fledged game, and features a total overhaul of the base SRPG Studio Engine to try and close the gap between the relatively lacking base SRPG Studio, and FE Hacks.
Feel free to play on any difficulty level! The game was designed around all of them, and permadeath is completely optional.
So, what is the story of Deg-Deg? Deg-Deg is a story about goblins. Along the way you’ll gather crazy different kinds of party members from animals to mythical monsters, and see the world from the perspective of a rag-tag and brash group of goblins just looking to retrieve the crown known as the golden croc.

About Pan
I’m better known for being a mod-maker for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, Stellaris, Victoria 2, and Darkest Hour. However, I’ve been a long time fan of SRPGs as a genre, and especially Fire Emblem! As such I thought it’d be fun to try and make my own game, and try to give back to the community with a unique product.
I’ve been an avid content creator for SRPG content, and run the SRPG Subreddit/Discord since I created them. As such it’s probably my favorite genre of games, and I’m hoping I’ve managed to distill some of the lessons and styles of play I learned from that into Deg-Deg to make it something truly unique. I’ve played through every single Fire Emblem game, every Kaga game, and around 70% of all SRPGs that exist. I’m always open to hearing more suggestions for games to try and generally happy to talk about the genre as a whole.
As far as making Deg-Deg goes the inspiration for making Deg-Deg and it’s goblin like adventure was that I noticed most SRPGs besides Disgaea just focused on human characters or largely human casts. You might have the odd monster here or there, but you’d never have a full cast along those lines and that was a big inspiration for me.
While Deg-Deg is by no means a serious story it’s set in the framework of a much larger overall story, and world that I ended up creating a long time ago back in 2005 for my Warcraft 3 Mod Conflict for Sereg Dor. Sereg Dor was fleshed out as a continent throughout five different projects, and 14 years of continuous development until Warcraft III reforged halted development. But, I thought why let my setting die in the confines of Warcraft’s rotting corpse? So, Deg-Deg is a more comical tale that I hope you all enjoy.
