We’re happy to announce that The Age of Decadence has sold 250,000 copies. We never thought we’d hit this number as AoD is a harsh and unforgiving RPG built around choices and consequences. And yet every year, more than a decade after release, new players still discover and enjoy the game. For a small independent studio, that's more than a sales milestone. It's the reason we're still here, still making games and telling stories. We're grateful to everyone who bought the game, recommended it to a friend, and wrote a review. Thank you for giving our game a chance. We wouldn't be here without you

It is the Year of Our Lord 2754… You will never feel the sun’s warmth under a blue sky, never hear the wind in the branches of a tree, and never swim in the ocean, all because you had the misfortune to be born on the Ship, chained to a fate you didn’t choose. You have never seen Earth and you’ll never see Proxima Centauri either. You’re doomed to live and die on the Ship in the name of the Mission, like your father before you, like his father before him. The Ship is old. She had already been twenty years in service when she was rechristened Starfarer - a pretty name for a retrofitted interplan

Bugfixes for Polish localization.

The title says it all - the AoD story can now be experienced in Polish, thanks to the tireless Polish community and their many months of work. If you always wanted street thugs to yell "Kurwa!" at you while in a knife fight, your dream just came true. Use "Options -> Gameplay" menu to switch the language, and don't forget to check the credits screen to see who made this possible.

Our friends at Lost Pilgrims have just launched Vagrus - The Riven Realms into full release here on Steam. Vagrus is a turn-based, open-world, dark fantasy RPG. The game moves out of Early Access with well over a hundred hours of playable content . Vagrus and its haunting world were born from decades of tabletop RPG campaigns played by the founders of Lost Pilgrims, which adds vastly to the game’s unique atmosphere and the richness of its setting. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steam/apps/909660/extras/line.png Vagrus is an award-winning roleplaying game with a narrative focus, open-world exp

We've been working on Colony Ship for 5 long years, modifying the engine, building tools and systems (character, combat, stealth, dialogue, inventory, AI, pathfinding, etc), creating thousands of assets, and - finally - the first chapter of the game: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33441284/903315db6539be3747bf1b1117df4fe1bc571b94.png Turn-based combat with action points and different attack types with different pros and cons.

Greetings to you, worthy friends! KotC 2 is the brilliant offspring of acclaimed computer role-playing game Knights of the Chalice (now available on Steam). The new game is intended to recreate the best aspects of past 2D D&D computer RPGs such as Baldur's Gate 2, Temple of Elemental Evil, Dark Sun Shattered Lands, Champions of Krynn and Planescape: Torment. KotC 2 uses the OGL 3.5, the ruleset at the root of tabletop RPG Dungeons & Dragons 3.5. D&D 3.5 is well known for its tactical depth and the wealth of its character classes, feats and spells. KotC 2 expands the library of races, classes,

Our dear Friends at Lost Pilgrims Studio have just released the Open-World main campaign for Vagrus - The Riven Realms. Vagrus is a turn-based, open-world, dark fantasy RPG. The development team has been playing table-top RPGs (like DnD) on their home-brew setting, the Riven Realms, for over two decades, then based this game on it, so it has incredibly deep lore and immersive stories. They have just posted a huge announcement on their Steam development blog about releasing the open-world main campaign of Vagrus to all their Crowdfunding Backers in preparation of bringing the game to Steam. htt

https://store.steampowered.com/app/648410/Colony_Ship_A_PostEarth_Role_Playing_Game/ As the title says, the hopefully long-awaited combat demo will be released tomorrow. A public release, even if it's only a combat beta, is a big milestone, as it's the foundation on which the rest of the game will be built. All the key features are there: the character system, increase-by-use skills, the combat system and AI, party mechanics, dialogue, inventory, pathfinding, etc. It's a game in itself, which is why it took so long to get to this stage. I can talk some more about this journey and its emotional

If you wondering whether or not to buy this game, you've come to the right place. While we do want to sell more copies, we don't want people disappointed with what they buy, so to help you make an informed decision we put together this handy guide – written not in the marketing speak high Elven but in plain English – giving you 3 good reasons (3 most common complaints) not to buy this game. No, this isn't reverse psychology marketing but a fair warning. 1. Difficult Combat You aren’t a mighty hero smiting evil-doers by the dozen but a regular Joe (or Jane). You’ll be outnumbered and outgunned,

It's very rough, of course, as it's the First Iteration of the game and things will change a lot by the time the game is ready to be released. Right now you can talk to people, fight, loot bodies, increase skills and equip new gear. The dialogue scripts are working like a charm, so you can go through all the fights and get one of 5 endings of the upcoming combat demo. The AI is doing a pre

We constantly update the build sitting on the public test branch and every now and then move it to the default branch, so it's business as usual. This time around we fixed two recently reported issues: high level poison was applied incorrectly to arrows and Gaelius' troops accompanying him to the temple were too weak and didn't stand a chance against the Imperial Guards holding the Dead River pass. While we were at it, we decided to integrate Sunfire's (who's a giant among men) most excellent and comprehensive mod into the core gameplay files. The changelog is too long to include here, so here

Since we don't have a proper page for our new game yet, I'll post the last update here in the spirit of Christmas: A setting is defined by the factions it spawns. For example, 9th century England is not defined by dudes sporting swords and chainmail but by the warring kingdoms, Viking factions, puppet rulers, the Danelaw, and a clash of religions. In turn, the factions are defined by their leaders who reflect the current state of affairs, and the leaders are defined by the challenges they face. Thus the time has come for you to meet the finest sons and daughters of Starfarer: the elected, appo
