Hello Farseekers! Today we’ll talk about the world of Siagarta, its lore and how we’ve made it to create a sense of exploration!
After 5 centuries of exile in the remote region of Antelimbo, humans are finally free. They are rediscovering the ancient world of Siagarta, which has been largely destroyed and abandoned.
Your arrival takes place 25 years after the liberation of humans. In the meantime, several powers have emerged: the zealous army of the Crimson Rams, the fish-men Nepsids, the industrious Kobolds, the mysterious Heralds, and a handful of guilds. While the reasons for humanity's imprisonment have been largely forgotten, and those for their liberation remain unclear, all these factions are diving into a frantic period of exploration, rebuilding, and brawling.
Discovering a handcrafted world
Siagarta is a fully open world, offering a rich variety of regions, ranging from the vast green expanses of Skover to the snowy peaks of Ebral.
The world is entirely handcrafted, with nothing procedurally generated. We take pride in rewarding curiosity, designing large-scale encounters as well as small secrets and activities for you to discover.
In each subregion, you’ll find diverse activities that you can enjoy solo or with friends. Here are some of the ones you’ll usually encounter
Helping NPCs 🤝 Members of different factions may ask for your help with specific tasks, whether to explore new areas or advance their own goals
Fighting dangerous foes ⚔️ Elite enemies await you. Stronger than their regular counterparts, they can even take on multiple players at once
Seeking out ominous chests 💰 There are many chests to discover across Siagarta, but beware! They won’t open easily and may require you to overcome a challenge, whether through combat or other means
And many more 👀 Each subregion is unique and offers activities tied closely to its environment
Exploring with the proper tools
Mobility is a key element in Farever. As such, animations and game pace are intended to be rather fast, with no heavy physical constraints and high responsiveness.
The pleasure of moving fluidly goes hand in hand with many platforming interactions in the world, jumping, dashing, gliding, riding boars, swinging at the end of a grappling hook, or being propelled by a cannon, airstreams, geysers...
Platforming is meant to be an exploration tool that highlights the verticality of the world.
And this is just a quick overview of what's to come in Farever! In our next blog we'll cover the combat system of our game, its dynamism and how to master it.
See you on the journey, Farseekers ✨
