THE STARTING POINT
You are Cacildes, a young boy eagerly awaiting a letter from the King which will determine if your future belongs with the Royal Army.
In the meantime, your mother is worried: many chickens have gone missing, threatening breakfast pancakes and other egg delicacies. So, naturally, you're tasked with investigating it out.
KEY FEATURES
- Combat and game mechanics heavily inspired in Dark Souls and Sekiro, with dodge roll, parrying, jump-attacks, guard-breaking, bonfires and a soul system that allows you to recover lost experience upon death
- Day and night system - find different people at different hours of the day; harder enemies appear at night, while others may sleep, allowing you to sneak past them
- Crafting system & weapon upgrades - craft your own potions and food, with ingredients that will replenish after a couple of days; find ores to upgrade your weapons at a blacksmith;
- Factions and reputation system - your actions and clothing influence how you are perceived by the people around you. You may go unnoticed by factions if wearing same armor; If you have a negative reputation, people will close their doors; Spells and rings may boost you depending on your positive (or negative) reputation;
- Companions system - Divide and conquer! But beware, enemies will have more health the more companions in your party!
- And much, much more - Discover multiple endings, secret bosses, gear and acessories that influence gameplay, and hidden areas to explore!
FRIENDS ALONG THE WAY
In your adventure, you can either face enemies alone or with your trusty companions. As you progress through the story, you'll unlock these fellow friends:

Hey, just bought your game on Steam and while I love it, I desperately want to be able to re-map the keys. Do you have any plans to make this possible?
Hey! Thanks for supporting the game :-) glad you're enjoying it. I can add it to the development board as a future task, I know it will probably be requested by more players :-) as soon as I clear the board from the more critical bugs, I'll give it a go! Cheers
Hello again :-) I've added key rebindings for certain actions. Hope this improves your experience, and thanks for the feedback:

Hello, I like your game. I have a question? What is the "jump" option on keyboard? I thought it was space key but it didn't work. Space key is "roll" for some strange reason.
Hey 4Redwall, thank you for the kind words! It's the "F" key for jumping. I noticed it's not clear, so the next version of the game will have a tutorial explaining the basic controls :)
ok thank you!
Version 0.8 adds an extra map - Hell!
