Hi everyone, I'd like to present the game I'm working on.
You can play the demo for free, and, if you like it, support the project by following it!

The Sundew, a pixel art adventure inspired by cyberpunk

The Sundew is an exciting point'n'click adventure game that will take you into a world where the boundaries between good and evil become blurred. It is inspired by classic games like Sierra' and LucasArts games but also by new representatives of the genre (Wadjet eye games, The Last Door, ...), and cyberpunk worlds.

An old story, in a new world

Embark on a journey back to the glorious days of point'n'click adventure games you enjoyed so much! In a
cyberpunk world full of mysteries and shadows, you'll be immersed in a great story about friendship and
duplicity, highlighted by a unique pixel art style combined with a powerful soundtrack.

The Story - My name is Anna

"The town is dark, rainy and sleepy. I can see its lights through my windows. Shibukawa became the new capital city of Japan, eleven years ago. Its immense town center grew up very quickly, after Tokyo was devastated by a giant tsunami. Life in Shibukawa is pretty safe, since robots replaced cyber-cops and eradicated most crimes. But some of us do not believe in this new evolution. In spite of the great performances of their AIs, they lack one thing they have not been able to acquire throughout the years. They lack… discernment.

My name is Anna. I live here, at 592 Akagimachi Miyama. I am 21 and the best cyber police officer in Shibukawa. The lastest version of what would, what should have been the new cops in Japan. Sometimes I feel very confident, sometimes I feel really bad… but, whatever, no matter what happens, all the time, I feel empty inside. I feel bored. I can't find my place in the middle of these robots.

I have an unusual mission today. I should be excited about it, and, I don't know why, but… I feel that what is going to happen tonight will not really go as expected. On paper, everything looks easy. But when the pressure will be at its highest, if something goes wrong, am I going to make the right decisions?"
