Rhemus (Pre-Alpha-DEMO)

Hello, brave retro adventurers in search of tasty treats for your Game Boy. After spending quite some time with GB Studio and creating a few smaller "Eventures" (games designed to be played in an evening), it was finally time to embark on a bigger, more serious project.

This project is RHEMUS—a love letter to the first JRPGs of the Game Boy era. Think 2-sprite characters who never stop jogging in place and turn-based battles. But it can’t just be retro for retro’s sake! I’m wrapping it all in an epic story packed with plenty of quests and side missions—essentially everything you’d expect from modern RPGs.

To avoid spending a year of my life on this project all alone—only to hit a wall halfway through and give up—I’m taking a different approach this time and asking for your support. Treat me to a coffee or a croissant, or leave a helpful comment on my project. These little things motivate me to keep pushing forward with RHEMUS and aim for something truly great.

You can play and test the pre-alpha demo today, which should keep you busy for about an hour. In about a month, I’ll release a proper demo that will offer a polished and well-rounded gameplay experience. Then we’ll see how much interest RHEMUS generates on crowdfunding-plattforms and if the world wants to see it as a finished game.

With your support, I can make this happen!
I hope you have a great time exploring Rhemus!
