Hello everyone!
We are a small studio from Shanghai. Gentleman

We are currently working on a game project named Eastward.

In the world of EW,  human societies are isolated and shrinking, due to some severe environmental problem.  
You will be playing a 'father' with a following 'daughter',  and go through this post-apocalyptic world ( well, that does sound familiar ...  Roll Eyes ).



The game will be an action adventure. We hope it will be like a Zelda game with some JRPG style storyline.
It's going to be released on Steam first ( of course we'd like to get it on the consoles if it's possible  Tongue )









The game use a special "retro-pixel + 3D lighting" visual style. We aim to achieve a feeling close to Japanese animation from 90s.





----

We use our in-house framework based on great MOAI engine (http://www.getmoai.com), a cross-platform C++ engine written for Lua.  
We have an IDE on top of MOAI with help of Python & QT.  We will write more about the engine part in future updates.


----

The project is still in very early stage. We'll try best to keep updating this devlog as often as possible.

Thank you!  Coffee

Haha, while I was reading and scrolling, I thought "This look like the backdrop to an anime mov... yep! Guessed it!"

The artwork is stunning, but I am s curious as to what route the story is going to run. The art makes me think of Tekkonkinkreet.

Holy shit that art!  I love how it's so detailed, yet still has a retro-esque feel to it.
