What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Even with having the prologue and 2 full chapters complete, I would like to show the community what else I have planned for it, and work with feedback given where I see fit.

I don't really have any goals with SPECIFICALLY going early access, I just wanna share what I've been working on.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Estimating about 1-2 more years, but this could shorten or lengthen later.”

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

“The full version is planned to include around 5 total chapters of story content, with new weapons, characters, and music.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game currently contains the prologue and the first two chapters, giving you about two and a half hours of story content.”

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

“During early access, the game's price is slashed in half to accommodate the lack of content. Expect it to double when the game IS complete.”

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

“The community can help by offering feedback on places like BlueSky, my own site's Support form, or from the Steam community page. ”

About This Game

The Tale of THE DARK

Follow Addie, a teenage girl who get dragged down into an alternate realm, THE DARK, by it's exiled prince, Dexter. The two of them must traverse the land, running into different interesting people, to reach the capital and take back the crown. 

What to expect in this tale?

  • A battle system largely inspired by the system common in RPG Maker titles, as well as older RPGs from the 90's

  • Reaction based attacks that you must dodge or deflect, like a playful pounce or a FREAKING CANNONBALL!!!

  • A fairly linear adventure, focused on dialouge and puzzle solving.

  • Interesting characters like a drunk cat.

  • Did I mention the dogs.

  • The whole game made by (mostly) one creature.

This is normally the part where I thank you for reading this description.

If you want to, you can try out the free demo that contains the first chapter. Then once you've tried the game, you can grab the rest. 

Um.... that's all I have to say

have fun ;)
