A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

A Sci-Fi/Mystery story told in the style of an old-school JRPG.

Things were "reasonably" normal for Elise, but when a particular subject begins to have dreams of an odd figure in a completely red cloak, things start to unravel and her entire world starts to fall apart.

Fight your way through monsters in dream-like dungeons, solve small puzzles, and try to start to figure out what on earth is actually going on.

Features:

  • Interesting Skill Systems!
    The two playable characters in the demo both have entirely unique skill sets, as well as different methods of learning their skills.
  • Slippery Tile Puzzles!
    Like the ones you hated in Pokemon.
  • A Talking Chicken!
    They can heal you and stuff.
  • Puns!
    As bread is the lowest form of wheat, so too are puns the lowest form of wit. ...wait, what?

Demo for a WIP
This demo includes exposition and the complete first dungeon with post-dungeon cutscenes and dialogue, ending just before the second dungeon begins.

About
This is a solo passion project, and I've put together most everything myself including music, enemy design + stats, designing the environments and battle systems, even down to the little animated cursor. It is very, very much still a work in progress, currently about 13% complete (that's a strangely specific number...?). My aim first and foremost is to complete the "Main Storyline" dungeons and scenarios so that the story is whole and complete, with potential extra content to follow.
Thank you so much for your interest!!

Controls
"Z" is confirm; "X" is cancel/menu; "Shift" to run
