These are dark days, in the land of Ludum. Hunger and disease have laid waste to the brave people who live in the region. The death and destruction is blamed on the free-thinking women, who are accused of witchcraft and banished from society, if not burned at the stakes.
You, Romina, are one of these women. Banished from your hometown, you took to the roads, leaving all your belongings behind. After a long journey, you finally came upon the regions capitol, the city of Dare. A city where no one knows who you are.
Here at last you can begin to earn the trust of the townsfolk and eventually get your revenge on the city and its King, and take over the land of Ludum. You start with nothing however, so it will not be an easy quest.
CONTROLS
'WASD' or 'Arrow keys' to move. 'Space' to jump. Mouse to navigate dialog.
HOW TO PLAY
Walk around in the city of Dare, talk to the townsfolk, and find ways to earn their trust. Use your skills as a witch to brew poisons and potions to aid you in your quest for revenge and power.
I just want to say, this game sets mood very nicely. With the dark colors and the Very atmospheric audio, I was very enthralled by the immersion. It's also a grim tale, which I enjoy completely, and there is some replayability, which is awesome. All in all, a great story!
This game is amazing!!! I like your art style - it seems simple, but everything matches together. Music and sound effects are great, your dialogues / options are funny and enjoyable, too. Great story and perfect entry! :)
The mood and art style is phenomenal. The world really seemed alive in this game, and I cared about its characters. I felt badly about some of the things I was doing. Possible Bug: If you cook the poison mushroom *after* getting the flower for the wife, it replaces the flower for the wife. Eventually got to a point where I couldn't progress any further. One of the best of the jam I've played. Excellent work.
Holy s* this game is dark. You made me kill a little girl, a dog, a hobo, the major but when it came down to kill the priest no no no no. Come on, let me kill the stupid crazy priest. Well, it goes to show that if you kill everyone you become a king, or queen, or whatever. Really dark game, amazing art work to fit the creepy theme. Song is dark and disturbing, the speed is slow and unsettling, their expressions and text and sound effects, everything fits together perfectly. I was honestly just waiting for salad fingers to show up out of nowhere to show me his finger friends.
I enjoyed my first couple of minutes, I liked the puzzle side of the game but I eventually grew tired of walking back and forth between places, couldn't get myself to complete the game unfortunately. I liked the way the game looked. the music was repetitive but did get the ambiance across.
Grandly dark indeed! I do agree a bit with the walking pace, I'll try to remember to play this one more later when I have patience. I think you can make decisions that block the win and not even really know, because one tenet of game play is to explore the menu buttons, the other is that probably "do everything" is the right gameplay.
good atmosphere, the music really sets the mood. i ogt a little stuck on the sequence of things. the girl asked me to do something with the fisherman and i quckly forgot what it was and the second time i talked to her she just said hello again. then the guy next to her asked to take her a flower but all she says is "hello again". i went to the fisherman that gave me fish and went back to the girl and she just says "hello again"
