We have a release coming up. Decided to add some stats and take a look back. Let's reflect on how much and what we have in the game. We'll also look back at the lore a little bit more. Sit back and make yourself comfortable 🥰
❗️ Let's reveal the cards right away: RELEASE on September 20. Add it to your wishlists so you don't miss it ❗️
🍑 26 characters. Humans, gods, kujin, akami, and other inhabitants of the island. Each of them plays a different role in the story. Some you won't even realize how important their role is ⚙️ 12 mechanics. Free movement, upgrading characteristics, relationships, and more. Some of them you're used to and don't even notice, but we polish each mechanic. So there's something for everyone to do on the island 🎨 21 cutscenes and 74 backgrounds. We have also provided for day-night change on the map, each background has both night and morning variants. In the cutscenes (we call static art during the narrative) we show the most important events
In general, the story of Lyndaria began in February 2023. You wouldn't have recognized our game like this back then. A lot of work was also done during the rewrite. Just in June 2023 we decided that we need variability and free movement. And so, we're hoping to be done in September 2024.
Did you know we've even thought through the lore of each tribe? Buildings, totems, subtleties and nuances aren't just added to the text and art for no reason. There's meaning behind it all. We looked for historical references for each tribe, so that we could see their development at once. For example, the Atlantes are the remnants of an ancient civilization. They even have a system of rulers like in ancient Rome.
We tried to bring together all the inhabitants of the island. They can exchange cultural traditions, but they can also fight. However, even the mighty ruler of the Kujins realizes that it's not profitable to fight the whole island. Suddenly, the charming Maya appears among them! The story turns and plays with new colors 💞
Our traveler may develop the closest relationships with a lot of characters. However, along the way she will also see war, loss, and the conflict of the gods. What do you think of such an adventure in the world of adult games?
