πŸ‘οΈ DOWNHILL KICKSTARTER LAUNCHES JUNE 4TH πŸ‘οΈ

You are not the girl in our story. You are the voice in her head.

Break the 4th wall, walk between realities, and make your mark in a tale about power and the abuse of it

Play the demo June 4th.

this is still so unbelievable to me.
DOWNHILL has an article on VICE

we're just three friends who met playing games and now our own video game is being talked about on VICE

The ingredients to our game:
- The 4th wall, smashed to pieces
- You control Fade, and Fade is aware of you
- A story of power and the abuse of it
- Switching between two parallel realities at will
- A Blood Saber, pulled from Fade’s bloody eye
- Three first-time game dev women

Any music friends with a SoundCloud, beware.

They've since backpedalled with the usual "we only use gen AI to help artists" and "we've never done [insert specific thing that's beside the point]".

But they did and will continue to change their ToS without warning in order to circumvent you.

It will cost you $0 to RT our work ✨ (but it might help us make the game of our dreams)

We're developing a 4th wall breaking aRPG, where the main character is fully aware of being controlled by you. That leads to many unique interactions and tough moral choices!

Audrey Shephard; 

Presumably, Queen Yunona personally recruits students into her Royal Academy from the city's orphanage. No one knows what exactly goes on behind the academy's doors, but all trained Agents are tall, white haired, and have the ability to turn into wolves - something unheard of for the human race, usually incapable of such magic. In public, they often wear masks, hiding their faces and names, but Audrey was the first exception, given the position of the Head of the City Guard.

- This position has surrounded Audrey with many rumors, uncanny enough to frighten many citizens and rebels.

- She has selective mutism, but it doesn't prevent her from doing her job - Audrey gives orders with hand gestures.

- For the past few months, her main objective has been locating the rebels' hideout in the city β€” so far unsuccessful.
