[RoS] Rule of Salt Devlog #1

Wait, I can make devlogs not tied to projects now?! 
Oh boy oh boy oh boy! I can finally update you on my upcoming project, Rule of Salt, on Itch!
***

In your treasure hunt, you find a cursed artifact: it's the cross of the Estadea, which binds you eternally to the Santa Compaña -a ghost ship that sails towards the underworld. As Cattleya you will learn the ropes of the boatswain and forge bonds with your crew in the quest to defeat Leviathan, the all-devouring sea monster. 

THE GAME takes inspiration on European myths, like the Santa Compaña and the Wild Hunt, but also biblical materials in the character of Leviathan and literary nods to classic 800s literature. And part of my training as a seafarer too.  All the sprites and CGs are done by the amazing Cherbox, who also published a a game on Itch! Please check their page out, they do AWESOME STUFF!

THE CREW  the main crew is composed of five individuals!
Vidal Monterrey-Azar: Captain of the Santa Compaña, he's allegedly born at sea. 
Iris: First Mate, a beloved feline that lived seven lives. Just like the seven seas.  
Ruben Von Hessenstein: Quartermaster and your direct superior. Stern and demanding, so behave.  
Lear: Stowaway on the Santa Compaña, he boarded the ship conscious because there's somebody he needs to see.
...and you, Cattleya! 

THE MAPS are still placeholders but they will be all hand-drawn parallaxes! Please trust the process... and stay tuned for updates! 
I share updates on Saturdays on Bluesky and Twitter!
