Embers in a Gray Hearth [Demo]

 “All things come to an end…”

    “...But the end has not come yet."

Delve into the spire with only the hand of a long-faded deity to guide you.

A short text adventure for the GMTK 2022 jam that is more of a test for a combat system than anything else. I wanted to try something very stat-heavy because it's not usually my thing. It's maybe not immediately apparent since there's not a ton of narrative, but it takes place in my blackwater-verse, of which Acolyte-Ascend is a part. Hopefully, it will one day be part of a larger game.

Known Issues:
