As promised, the Kickstarter campaign for Rat Tower Software's Ultima Underworld-inspired dungeon crawling RPG Monomyth went live this evening. So did the game's demo, which is available on itch.io and will be released on Steam later on. The pitch video includes last week's trailer along with an additional segment in which RatTower finally reveals his face to his adoring fans. Here it is along with a brief overview:
MONOMYTH is an immersive, first-person dungeon crawling RPG in the vein of Ultima Underworld, Arx Fatalis, and the King’s Field series.
Travel through an open, highly interactive game world, unrestricted by scripted sequences, hard-coded barriers, or tiled movement.
Use swords, daggers, hammers, maces, bows, or a wide range of versatile spells to overcome your enemies in real-time combat!
Remain unseen and unheard by sneaking through the shadows of eerie dungeons deep below the surface of the world.
Talk with the inhabitants of the underworld via a detailed, keyword-based dialogue system. Trade with them or press them for information. But don’t go too far or you may suffer the consequences!
Experiment with a wide range of utility items: Speed potions, water arrows, lockpicks, and many more!
A highly interactive world awaits you! Douse torches, bake bread, drink from fountains, and even play instruments!
Unravel the mysteries of Lysandria as you uncover hidden passages, dive through flooded caves, and overcome the living nightmares that inhabit the ancient halls far below the mighty fortress.
RatTower is looking to raise a minimum of €16,500 to bring Monomyth to the finishing line, with a whole set of stretch goals already planned out afterwards. I expect everybody to pitch in so we can show those clowns at OtherSide Entertainment how it's done. A basic copy of the game will cost you just €15, with a rather exclusive closed beta access available starting from €125. The estimated release date is June 2022.
