Garden of Oblivion

 
Chronotopia: Second Skin releasing on October 13thOct 4, 2023 - Community Announcementshttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1667530/Chronotopia_Second_Skin/ It’s been a long time since the release of Garden of Oblivion on Steam. The truth is that we’ve been busy working on our very first commercial game and devlopment didn’t exactly go as expected. But at long last, it’s done! If you happened to like the horror elements in Garden of Oblivion, you might want to take a look at Chronotopia: there's plenty of horrifying ways for the heroine to die (around 10)! Also, similar gameplay segments are present, though they're more scattered and infrequent due to the longer story. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28585324/eaa83bfaeaa8c2d18f00cd7b36ff8bd27eed6e6b.gif The plan was supposed to be simple, almost ridiculously so. When her father, driven mad by years of grief, suddenly decided to force her into marrying him, Princess Kionna enlisted the help of her childhood friend. Together, they managed to contact her long-lost fairy godmother. Surely, her powers would save her from this hellish fate. Kionna would be able to escape the castle, a prince charming would find her, and they would live happily ever after. Alas, magic can only do so much. Things keep spinning out of control. Trapped in an endless nightmare, the princess ceaselessly rewinds time in a race with death itself. Is a happy ending truly waiting for her at the end of the tunnel? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28585324/1808f102ddfde528406ed88cb9951b0f474d9aaf.gif A captivating plot full of unexpected twists and existential dread Over 200 000 words of content with multiple endings (20-30 hours of playtime) 2 GxG (Nahima and Médeia) and 1 GxB (the "Prince") romances can be chosen at the end of Kionna’s journey Unlockable archives connecting the story to real-life European folklore Several gameplay phases to experience the semi-realistic medieval world in a different light Beautiful artwork, with animated backgrounds and special stained-glass illustrations Frequent use of cinematic shots to make the reading more immersive A full original soundtrack with celtic influences Available in both English and French!Chronotopia: Second Skin - Now on Kickstarter!Aug 1, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsWe’re currently doing a crowdfunding campaign for Chronotopia: Second Skin, our very first commercial project. If you liked the atmosphere of Garden of Oblivion and how things kept getting worse, you might enjoy Chronotopia’s story as well~ https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32133628/0955b00dabc46c779406cec02ef08bd014f4adae.jpg Princess Kionna lives a peaceful existence in her castle, enjoying her days with her best friend and confidant, Nahima. That is until her father, gone mad since the death of his beloved, decides he should wed her instead. Kionna has to find a way to escape from this fate, but how? She doesn't know it yet, but it's the beginning of a long nightmare that will take her to the edge of madness... Chronotopia: Second Skin is a dark rewriting of the fairytale Donkeyskin inspired by a wide range of influences including anime like Haibane Renmei and Madoka Magica and games like Steins;Gate and Child of Light. The story is a unique and more mature take on a forgotten fairytale that includes many twists and choices that affect the ending: the princess can either escape with her servant, become a fairy, or die a horrible death. Multiple times. It's up to you to save...or doom her. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32133628/379c330da045f0ac355e2a46b245e5e02d995f06.jpg There’s a demo available so give it a go and consider pledging to the Kickstarter if you’d like the project to come true! Free games of the weekMar 24, 2018 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunThis week, I bring you a bunch of strange games to explore and think about during your weekend. In my bag of games, I have a super colorful, yet very challenging game about gaining souls and throwing creatures against much stronger creatures in hopes of destroying them. I have a game about being lost in a childlike mind – stuck in a world where you are forgetting yourself, trying to escape against the wishes of your old friends. A cool car racing game, where a giant decorated skull challenges you, and guides you through intense courses and even through space. A game following the thoughts of a serial killer, and another inside the mind of a detective that can t quite solve a case Plenty of new adventures and worlds for you to dive right into.
