History

In 2018 my father died unexpectedly in a car crash. I struggled with grief for 2 years assuming time alone would make it better... that wasn't working. I decided to go on what I dubbed a "grief adventure" and traveled to all the places we made memories. I forced myself to live all those moments out again and learned to love those places and hobbies once more.

Being a game developer by trade, I thought my adventure could make for a compelling game and perhaps help others stuck in grief like I was.

  • Turn based bullet hell combat
