Newest Update 9/9/21 - 2pm:
Game folder is now cleaner with far less files. Installer is more neatly prepared. The game itself has been compiled in a more organized way as well and allows quick patches for updating players. Newest link below. It may take 2 minutes or so to launch. Once you’ve installed the game, check out the Edge Game Manual PDF in the main folder for how to play.
Hello,
I hope you’re safe and well during these times. It’s been a while since I’ve been here on the forums, Covid-19 caused a lot of challenges, but it’s also given me some new time to concentrate on game development from home. Note that I have only been away from the forums until there was more to announce, as I've been answering all emails for years and assisting with technical support this whole time.
I'm glad to announce Edge of Winter has full story and gameplay and is continuing its community testing from before. I've always valued the community for its knowledge of audio games and improving the game was always meant to be an ongoing thing. Thank you for your patience and support, I hope you will enjoy playing.
For those who would like to join in the analysis and feedback in testing and helping to improve the game, email [email protected]
Story:
You are a young alchemist, summoned to aid in stopping a ravenous beast stalking a dark kingdom. But things soon change as you become cursed to transform in the moonlight. Now you must search the vast castle on a quest for a cure, and answers to the mystery you find yourself ensnared by along the way.
Features:
+ Explore a huge open castle in real-time.
+ Full voice over starring actors from Dragon Age and Apotheon.
+ Scenery narration and dialogue choices.
+ Suspenseful escapes and scares.
+ Collect inventory, use items and mix potions.
+ Transform, break through barriers, and leap across chasms.
+ First person, top down game views and more control options.
+ In-game maps and sub-maps.
+ Xbox One controller support.
I do not say anything promotional, nor have I yet. I'm here for value of the help from constructive feedback and to support in return as I always do via email.
For those who have purchased it originally,
I have sent you the game and will send all improving updates as we go. If for any reason you haven't received it but would like to, email [email protected]
Despite that I've completed several video game and animation projects to a high quality standard, this one is an audio title and not at that point yet and I do not claim that it is. It is and has always been meant to be openly improved.
If you'd like to play the game for testing and enjoyment and interest together, please email [email protected] to participate.
Technical Note:
Keep your game window active, as it runs in windowed mode. Play normally and note that your player is temporarily still and not enabled during cutscenes or events. Press enter or A button to proceed when the scenes await your input. Once you’ve installed, check out the Edge Game Manual PDF for how to play.
System Requirements:
Windows 10, 8, 7. Direct X9 or higher. Relatively recent sound card and graphics card, but the game is not too heavy on systems. Apologies for the lack of Mac, but I’ll be back.
Version Notes:
This is an early version. You can play through the full story. However, it has some known bugs.
I also am actively working on two other games: Airik the Cleric 2 and Steampunk Neverland. I’ll be releasing those as well, soon and have not forgotten, I'm here as always via email. Thank you and be safe.
Sincerely,
Jyro
