Hello everyone!
Finally, The Crown of Leaves has successfully went through the way from Greenlight to release! Now you can fully experience Roui's story and get to know him better, meet new characters, and also dive into the world of Shang-La and the riddles of the Hill Camp. Explore the environment, meet the hillcampers, collect items and fill up the Mindscape!
We have tried to release several plot routes, and each of them affect the gameplay, but the real consequences of your choices are waiting for you in the next chapter. One of the main routes takes from 1 hour or more of playing time, the second - 3 hours or more. We highly recommend to go through both of the routes to get the full impression and experience the story from all sides.
Alas, we couldn't put everything that we had planned in the first chapter. However, we already have sketches for the next one, and we're going to make everything come to life - and there will be more of the quest part. It is still difficult to say when the second chapter will be released, because first we need to rest, get ourselves together and gather the energy to keep working.
This is our first game. There are only four people on our team, and game dev is a hobby for us, but we have found tremendous support among everyone. Thank you so much for being together for three years! Your advice and moral support helped our project to develop and become better. Special thanks to those who financed us on Patreon, as well as to the direct participants of the development who helped in creating the non-player characters - Vander and Alek (as well as others who will appear later in the game).
Without all of you, Crown would never come to light!
