A downloadable game for Windows

STEP INTO THE ABYSS, IF YOU DARE.

Explore the fantasy world of Bathyal through unique dioramas. Uncover the secrets of the abyss, but beware: There are dangers lurking in the depths and your character might lose her sanity.


HOW TO PLAY

Navigate through Bathyal by turning small dioramas around. Use your mouse or the left gamepad stick to move the cursor and interact by clicking or pressing A. When you see something glow as you hover over it, that means it is interactive and a dialogue with descriptions and options will open. Choose what you want the character to do, but be aware that every action costs time and can be dangerous.

If you are done exploring a diorama, click on the rocks leading away from it and you will be teleported to the next!



OVERCOME CHALLENGES

Your character has three main attributes: reason, vigor and empathy. When you try to master a challenge, the dice pool for one of these attributes is rolled. Shields mean success, while skulls mean failure. 

Try to roll as many successes as the challenge requires! If you get too many failures, the attribute will start to corrupt, which will eventually kill your character.

What's the difference between the version with the shader and without? (For those of us who aren't tech savvy, lol)
