About

A short early-build demo of our current game project: Dongeng Bayang Kulit (Shadow Theatre Fables - also our first public game as a company!). Dongeng Bayang Kulit is a turn-based RPG that is loosely based on Southeast Asian folklore. You play as the recently ship-less, Captain N'man and his mystical guide, Putri Matami as they travel in search for answers regarding a mysterious apparition that has taken to incessantly haunting N'man. 

This demo covers the first chapter of the game (a little over an hour gameplay wise) where the unlikely duo are investigating their first lead: a foreboding presence somewhere deep in the heart of the long-abandoned Old Water Village. Will the party be able to locate the ominous presence? What will they find? Will it be enough to free N'man? You'll have to play to find out! We hope you have a great experience with it!

Gameplay features

• Narrative-free, yet detailed story - Rich story and lore buried in any and all items you are able to pick up. Put it aside, or delve deep into it at your leisure! Heavily inspired by local Southeast Asian folk tales.
• Simple, yet brutal combat - Set up your abilities, plan the most efficient way to overcome those who would dare stand in your way! Or fail and be punished heavily.. What cannot act, cannot hurt you!
• Traditional themed score - A score that focuses on traditional brass percussions, ethnic guitars, and local drums - but used in a modern way that's almost inadvisable!
• Parallax mapped environments - Hand-drawn maps that allows for more organic and atmospheric areas.
