About this game Read the full description

A sci-fi visual novel about climate, class, and the relationships that shape our worldview.

From the deepest miasma to the shimmering veil, everything is in its place. The Peakborn rule, the Sunken toil, and the Unmoored trade. But Clear Skies Technology could rewrite the atmosphere, and with it the culture of planet Zé.

It all depends on how you use it.

Play as Spire Risan, an off-worlder scientist who becomes entangled in the drama of a mountain they came here to save. Fall in with the denizens of the three castes, and find that things are more complicated than they seem: be it love, family, or the systems that shape us.

Features

  • Six routes and one unlockable true route exploring Spire's relationships with the denizens of Zé.

  • A rich sci-fi world where the toxic atmosphere is intertwined with the culture and class system.

  • Beautiful art and an original synth-pop-trip-hop soundtrack.

  • 80,000 words of adventure, intrigue and relationships with difficult choices and deeply flawed characters.

  • Diverse characters and relationship types.

The Route Characters

  • THE SPYMASTER — A two-faced Peakborn noble trapped in a web of his own design.

  • THE PAINTER — An ambitious Unmoored artist, kept like a bauble by her Peakborn patrons.

  • THE WINDY KID — A quiet Unmoored child who has fallen in with pirates.

  • THE REVOLUTIONARY — A fiery Sunken leader who wants the peaks to burn.

  • THE DIVER — A Sunken fogdiver who explores the planet's depths.

  • THE PIRATES — Two Unmoored pirates who search for freedom through their crimes.

  • THE IDOL (True Route) — A Sunken Idol with a strange connection to the poisonous miasma.
