Hey everyone, I'm very proud to share a demo of the game I've been working on for nearly five years. It's a pixel-art style point-n-click adventure in the spirit of classics like Loom and Legend of Kyrandia, but with a modern twist. Thanks for your time! Hope you enjoy!

Synopsis

You play as high-schooler Iona Saint-Germaine, one of a handful of survivors of a catastrophic event that has destroyed the city and somehow created a reality where the flow of time fluctuates and people are infected with "bugs" that run like software on the brain. While these bugs mostly cause afflictions such as memory loss, paralysis, and even multiple personalities, Iona is somehow able to "download" bugs from other people and invert their effects to gain new abilities such as hyperfocus, flight, and even speaking to animals. With the help of her fellow survivors and her mother, a scientist and researcher who may know more than she's telling, Iona must use her new powers to find secrets, solve puzzles, collect items, and discover the root cause of the Event before time unravels completely.

Highlights

  • A deep, engrossing sci-fi story with tons of secrets to discover and items to find.
  • Classic pixel-art style with a modern-day aesthetic including reflections and shadows.
  • Meet a cast of interesting characters. Learn about who they are to discover more of the story.  Help them with their afflictions to earn new abilities and cosmetic rewards.
  • Beautiful, atmospheric soundtrack, plus bonus tracks from local bands hailing from Boston, Providence, and Denver.
  • Multiple endings based on your decisions.
  • Achievements (not available in demo).
