Brief Description

Sylvan is a game that demonstrates social states and the way people react, approach, and live with them, in Europe.

This game is set in a beautiful city called “Sylvan Heart”. The audience plays as “Lyanna(Ly), a young woman, with no father or mother, protecting and taking care of her brother, who has a rare illness which requires a specific operation that the government does not approve.

“Sylvan Heart” is ruled by a totalitarian government that lies to its citizens to prevail and stay on top, by making the civilians be what they want them to be and controlling them, without even raising suspicion.

Apart from that, “Sylvan Heart” has something very special. The way that energy is spread to the city comes from a magical place, a tree that produces liquid that is turned into energy and distributed to all the citizens through a plumbing system.

More of the narrative will be explained in detail in a feature article!

This looks interesting. I know you're still in an early phase, but if you ever need music for this game, let me know. I would love to work on it.
