Summerwind, a retro throwback RPG crafted by a single dedicated developer over more than a decade, is poised to delight fans of classic RPGs. This labor of love is set to be released on mobile platforms soon, following a period of anticipation.
In Summerwind, players step into the shoes of Ivi, a young woman with the unique ability to tame monsters. Accompanied by her loyal dinosaur companion, Ivi embarks on a thrilling adventure to explore a mysterious dungeon and thwart a magical storm that threatens the entire world. The game stays true to its roots, embracing the visual and gameplay conventions of classic RPGs, complete with challenging turn-based battles against a variety of fierce creatures.
Despite its limited color palette of 216 colors (the original VGA limit), Summerwind boasts stunning visuals that are sure to captivate players. The game's aesthetic appeal is enhanced by its gorgeous color choices and detailed pixel art, appealing even to those who might typically be less interested in retro graphics.
Summerwind doesn't just shine in its visuals; it promises a rich narrative as well. Players will encounter a diverse cast of characters, from the Adventurer Pig, a renowned explorer, to Wolf, a researcher who may hold the key to understanding the mysterious magical storm.
