About the Game

  • Explore meticulously designed maps.

Development:

The Key of Rednow is my third completed RPG Maker title, but the first posted for sale online. The alpha version of this game was a gift for my younger sister whose high school video project was the inspiration for the plot.

My focus throughout development was upon gameplay, but some custom art and animations are used to communicate game mechanics.
