[h1]It's happening, acolytes.
After three years of work, our debut game as a studio launches on [b]March 25th![/b][/h1]
As a five-person team, it feels surreal that we’re almost finished with development. From starting this studio in 2021, growing a community of people that gave us invaluable feedback, to only having the finishing touches left, this has been a wild journey. We hope all the thought and work put into our game will resonate with players in each encounter through the wastelands.
To give you another glimpse of what's in store, we’ve highlighted a few more of the game's Beasts: Prophet of Ruin, Forgotten Warrior, Mother of Kid, Noble Guardian, and Sickly Serpentskin. Here, we’ll go through their backstories, offering a closer look at their motivations and traits.
[h2]The Soul of Science[/h2]

Lover of Unheeded Messenger, together they tried to warn the world of the dangers that brought the world to waste. As calamities mounted the air turned sour, the land would not sprout crops, sickness rooted itself deeply and the oceans lay barren. The skeptics were never converted by [b]Prophet of Ruin[/b], they simply poisoned themselves away.
[h2]The Soul of the Cosmos[/h2]

Father of the world, disgraced and forgotten. Once their leader in both war and peace, [b]Forgotten Warrior[/b] is now left with a hollow stare that crosses over the horizon and past the orbits of the spheres. Prone to sudden violence, few dare approach for fear of being struck down by bolts of sun and sky.
[h2]The Soul of Love and Family[/h2]

A forest spirit once able to shapeshift into any animal, [b]Mother of Kid[/b]'s last supporter is said to have passed away while she was climbing a sheer cliff. She protects her child at all costs. The Kid, who follows close behind, trusts her mother with all her heart.
[h2]The Soul of Bravery[/h2]

Aged and ill-equipped to stop outsiders, the [b]Noble Guardian[/b] still holds his post protecting the Sunken Valley. Known for his exceptionally hard shell and indefatigable spirit, the Noble Guardian knows he may not stop any invaders, but he will take ample time to be slain.
[h2]The Soul of Theatre[/h2]

Brother of Maev. His cup masks, once used in whimsical plays, are now the object of petty street games. A devout of the old ways, [b]Gilded Grifter[/b] helps provide the King of Beggars with food from wandering traders and does his best to unite and entertain what little community is left.
[h3]Alright, that's it for now! Back to work. Thank you again for joining us on this journey, and we'll see you all on [b]March 25th![/b]
