While the gaming world buzzes with the revival of cherished classics, there's a special niche for those who crave the charm of retro RPGs. Enter Summerwind, a passion project over a decade in the making by a dedicated single developer, soon to be available on mobile devices after a long wait.
Summerwind transports players to a fantastical realm where Ivi, a young woman with the unique ability to tame monsters, embarks on a thrilling adventure. Accompanied by her loyal dinosaur companion, Ivi ventures deep into a mysterious dungeon to combat a magical storm that threatens not only her home but the entire world.
True to its retro roots, Summerwind embraces the aesthetic and gameplay of classic RPGs. Engage in challenging turn-based battles against a menagerie of fierce creatures as you navigate the dungeon's depths.
Beyond the dungeon: Despite being crafted with a mere 216 colors—the original VGA palette—Summerwind surprises with its vibrant and detailed visuals, appealing even to those who typically favor modern graphics.
For those seeking a rich narrative, Summerwind promises an engaging storyline filled with diverse characters. From the Adventurer Pig, a renowned explorer, to Wolf, a researcher vital to unraveling the mysteries of the magical storm, the game offers a tapestry of interactions and plotlines.
