Update: I posted the demo!
Have been working on a demo for a while, so thought I’d share what I have for the teaser/description so far. Hoping to have the demo out within the next couple of months. Any thoughts and feedback are welcome! Working title is ‘Magician’s Voyage’
(Also, please excuse any formatting errors. This is my first forum post! Yay.)
Summary
It’s your first job as a full-fledged Green Magician! The Magicians Order has hired you to transport magical artifacts across Midland, where they will be studied and their true natures revealed. You must travel to The Library with a band of magic users, making friends and enemies along the way.
This game takes inspiration from solarpunk, steampunk, and high fantasy. Explore a world where life runs on magic or the power of the sun, where flowers grow from magical influence, ships sail on golden wings through the sky, and where everything is under the watch of the Magicians Order. Will you join the Order, or rebel against them?
