Significant Updates have taken place. I have began the Steam Onboarding process.
This game will only be available for free for a short time.
A promising first chapter with great writing, an easy to follow sci-fi fantasy plot and plenty of charm. Looking forward to seeing future development.
Fun game. Especially like the writing and worldbuilding - lots of amusing dialogue / cutscenes / readable library books / item descriptions / etc.
