What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We chose Early Access to fine-tune the musical gameplay and overall experience with direct feedback from players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes the complete prologue, featuring two fully playable piano scenes. The musical gameplay is functional, and Steam leaderboards are fully implemented.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. The price will increase gradually as additional chapters are released during Early Access, starting at €6 / $6.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

About This Game

In a world spinning at full speed, the French team at Pianogo Studio offers you a slow, calm, contemplative and immersive game — for fans of music and artwork 100% created by humans.

A Piano Tale is a narrative game with elements of music skills. The game tells the story of a fictional musician, Alexandra Aaronovitch, in several stages of her life. Alexandra is an elderly woman with Alzheimer's disease, and discovers that her father Boris Aaronovitch, who was a composer during the Stalinist era in the USSR, composed a secret, subversive concerto at a time and place when artists were not allowed to create what they wanted. The concerto was dedicated to his daughter Alexandra, and the search for this secret motivates most of the narrative. Depending on the player's success in the Point&Click passages and in the musical skill parts, there will be three possible endings, which will show whether Alexandra has managed to retrieve her memories despite her illness, and whether she forgives her father for the difficult and strict childhood he put her through.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

We want to be transparent about our use of AI:
AI is used for: assisting with code development (debugging, refactoring, technical guidance during programming sessions).
AI is NOT used for: the story, the dialogue, the music, the illustrations, the character designs, or any creative content. A Piano Tale is a deeply personal project, and its soul comes entirely from human hands.
