About the Game

This is the demo for an ongoing multi-chapter game. Chapter 1's tutorial is fully playable in the demo, and the upcoming August release includes Chapters 1 & 2.

 

IN A WORLD AS STRANGE AS ITS NAME...

After a terrifying storm plummets their plane into an oceanic death, three pilots find themselves in a mysterious realm known as “The Island”. Whilst it may seem like a paradise, there’s far more to the land than meets the eye…

 

You don't play as the pilots. You play the force pulling their strings, directing the story as you see fit.

 

Will you be The Island’s saviour? Or do you perhaps have a different idea of fun?

 

FREE WILL: WHO NEEDS IT?

 

 

Following Theodore, Vander, and Evana, you control the lives of those around you to save the realm... or ruin it further, if you so choose. Without a body of your own, every choice must be made through someone else. The closer your beliefs align with theirs, the more sway you hold.

Although some people may be more “rebellious” than others...

DECIDE WHO LIVES, AND WHO DIES. PICK WISELY.

 

 

Every battle comes with a choice: slay your foes or spare them. 

 

Turn-based combat puts weight behind every decision, and each kill has a price. Your timeline remembers all of them, so choose wisely…

 

GROW YOUR CONTROL GROW YOUR COLONY

 

 

Explore The Island and decide who's worth keeping close. Recruit party members, forge alliances, and expand your colony as you see fit. The more you gather, the more you rule.

 

A COMPLETELY NORMAL STORY WITH NO TWISTS, TURNS, OR META NARRATIVES!*

 

Night Spasm is nothing more than a game. Except, somehow, it's less than that: you're not the hero OR the villain... just an influence of good and evil, shaping a story that remembers everything you do.

 

Will you play the role of storyteller and bend the timeline to your liking? Or will the characters behind your screen finally have something to say about it?

LET'S FIND OUT, SHALL WE?
