A downloadable game for Windows

This project is me attempting to re-capture the fun of adventure games in the 80's and 90's when I was a kid, but for curmudgeonly old people with little time or patience like I am now. Also just exorcizing my inner frustrated writer apparently.  Has been a good learning experience for building mechanics and usability in unreal.

NB: This demo contains the first two acts (of five) and basically just stops at the end with no fanfare or closure, so something to look forward to! It's also riddled with  little bugs.

Box Blurb;

Travel to Fleeting Manor and discover a heinous crime, explore the grounds, and meet a cast of eccentric characters. There is no wrong way to play, the choices you make mean nothing at all, just like in real life! So go nuts, have fun, and get you your own unique version of the story. 

  • Branching dialogue system
  • RPG Lite mechanics
  • Enjoy your own unique version of the story
  • Gather clues and interrogate suspects
  • 3D Pixel Art
  • Pre-Alpha build of Act 1 of the game available to play.
  • NB; Demo is provided as is, this is an in development project and is liable to have bugs, crashes, wild mood swings,  violent spelling errors, unfinished assets, Everything is subject to change. 
  • This build stops part way through Act 2, so don't download expecting the full game!!
