What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows us to expand the later layers while gathering player feedback that helps shape future chapters without changing the fixed foundation of the existing story.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Until one of the storylines concludes, this could take about eight months, as we need to finish telling the story.”

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

“We plan to have one of those storylines complete and also have more functions based on players' feedback. For example, we would add a custom font that players can change the font and colors of words.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We finished 2/7 of the story, and users can also customize the text display speed and background color.”

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

“no differ”

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

“We would reshape the future story and also add features to the game based on commuter feedback, and so on. We might not discover certain vulnerabilities in the game, but the player community can report these issues to us.”

About This Game

Chronicles of the Layered Realms is a choice-driven text adventure built entirely around reading, decision-making, and consequences.

After falling from a mountain cliff, you awaken in an unfamiliar wilderness with no clear explanation of how you survived. Your search for answers leads you to an isolated tribe, a mysterious altar, and evidence that the world is divided into interconnected layers controlled by forces far beyond your understanding.

Read each scene carefully and choose how to respond. Every option produces its own narrative outcome, influencing character relationships, physical condition, etc. These values remain concealed, allowing your decision make is part of the story.

Your actions determine how conflicts unfold, what information survives, who trusts you, and which path you take through the layered world. Obey the existing order, escape alone, or help others challenge it—then carry the consequences into the next layer.
