About This Game

Somebody's Tale is a 2D pixel art platformer that puts a bow in your hands and sends you on a journey. Run, jump, aim, and shoot your way through over 30 handcrafted levels—all in search of your beloved, who has been taken from you.

Bow & Arrow Combat

Your bow is more than just a weapon—it's your key to progression. Shoot enemies from a distance, use your arrows strategically to overcome obstacles. Every shot matters, and every enemy defeated brings you one step closer to finding her.

Platforming with Purpose

Tight controls and responsive movement let you navigate carefully designed levels. Whether you're leaping across gaps, dodging traps, or lining up the perfect shot, the action flows seamlessly from platforming to combat and back again.

Key Features:

  • 🏹 Bow Combat: Shoot enemies and activate switches with precision aiming.

  • 🎮 Tight Platforming: Responsive controls designed for smooth, satisfying movement.

  • 🎨 Handcrafted Pixel Art: Detailed 2D environments with a unique, melancholic atmosphere.

  • 📍 30+ Levels: A substantial journey with diverse environments and challenges.

  • 💀 Occasional Traps: A few traps to keep you on your toes—but never the main focus.

  • 🕹️ Balanced Challenge: Accessible enough to enjoy, challenging enough to satisfy.

  • 🎵 Atmospheric Soundtrack: Music that complements the mood and the action.

Your Beloved Awaits

The world is vast. The path is dangerous. But you have a bow, a purpose, and nothing to lose. Somebody's Tale is a game about precision, timing, and the lengths we go to for the ones we love.
