What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows us to gather feedbacks from our players on which aspect (investigation gameplay, art, sound direction) we can improve. We can also add extra assets such as music, illustrations and extra endings than the ones we are already cooking!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“1.5 year.”

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

“The first Early Access build contains 30% of the story (art assets, scriptwriting) and 2 possible endings. We plan to implement 30 more illustrations and story scenes, and 2 more endings.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All audio and illustration assets have been inserted. 20% of the script remains to be coded. At the earliest, we plan to release in early November 2025.”

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

“The initial Early Access release will be 50% off the final price. As we update the game with more content before the Full Release, we will gradually raise the price.”

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

“We are interested in receiving feedbacks on the different translations of the game. Feedbacks on the investigation gameplay and how improve it for a better UX. Feedbacks on improving the voice clips (sound volume between different SFX and characters)/”

About This Game

Rhodias is a mid-rank criminal. One day, an inexplicable urge prompts him to leave his gang behind and take to the distant mountains.

While wandering the alien hinterlands, he comes across a handsome traveler who invites him to the Temple of Renewal, where he claims Rhodias is bound to obtain many answers to his questions.

Being in the sacred Temple reveals unexpected things about him, including a primal hunger he didn’t know he had. Even stranger… he now has a new desire, he’s not so comfortable admitting: a desire for a close connection with the men he meets.

Dive into this new mature story filled with mystery, tentacles and gorgeous men!

Rhodias - Terran from an outer space colony

A man who thinks of himself first and foremost. An incident that occured 3 months ago brought major changes in his life and he is now in search for answers. He can remain calm even in high-stress situations.

Cyn Deh - Odarian

He is deeply loyal to Varga, his mentor whom he assists in his everyday life. He is not thrilled at the prospect of living with Rhodias, whom he dislikes at first sight. Like most Odarians, he suffers from a poor immune system.

Varga - Izakarian

He offers Rhodias to stay in the Temple of Renewal, where he is a respected and longtime member. Despite his warm demeanor, he never speaks of his own past. He trusts Cyn Deh more than anyone else.

Jah-Roe - Zephirian and Kivyanese hybrid

A high-ranking assistant to one of the Temple of Renewal's administrators. He is hardly ever seen outside of the Archives or his cave-like home. When Rhodias flirts with him, he flirts right back.

Snoop around strange caves and people's homes, find more about the temple and help Rhodias uncover the mysteries of the Temple!
