We have more details here and the trailer above for you to watch, as the game arrives on June 24 on PC via Steam.
Quantum Witch
It's always a lovely day in Hus. That's not suspicious at all! The bovey is grazing in the field, the faer are roaming around town causing chaos, the shadies are out preaching (they're not a cult!), and a giant stone portal to another dimension has appeared in the woods. I hope nothing goes hideously wrong and results in an adventure. So what is it?
- Narrative and choice driven platform adventure. Imagine choose your own adventure meets point and click meets platformer. Yes, you've got it! It's that. Not a platformer: a PLOTformer
- Hand crafted retro resolution pixel art in a cute style that definitely doesn't unexpectedly turn creepy.
- Not a cult.
- Choices matter. Convince a character to wear something? They'll wear it for the rest of the game. Save a character? They'll be there as part of your story.
This is the journey of Ren, a twenty-something shepardess who gets thrown into a multiversal conflict while on a fetch quest to find her lost flock. She'll have the fates of her friends in her hands, and YOU will have to help her make the difficult choices. Will she prevail? Will anyone survive? Why does everything pseudo-mystic have Quantum in the title? These questions, more or fewer, may or may not be answered!
