Hi everyone, We've decided to have a surprise launch for Ringlorn Saga Gaiden. The project was restarted in spring and has been in quiet development since then, and the body possession (reworked into shapeshifting) mechanic is back and better than before, along with new features you'll uncover while playing the game. We'll talk more about the project over the next couple of weeks, but in the meantime -- have fun, and don't forget to tell all your friends! Thank you for your support, --Graverobber Foundation Team

Hi everyone, The project underwent a complete restart in late 2023. After going through an internal review, it became clear that the project suffered from fundamental issues and needed a fresh start. For example: [olist]

Making sure that each body is fun to play proved to be an additional scope creep, as the number of enemy types is higher than in the original game. [/olist] In the end, the vertical slice wasnt compelling and didnt feel like a step forward, and the amount of work required to realize its full potential went way over the budget and the time we could allocate for this project. Because of that, it was decided to roll back to the original game and iterate while not fixing what wasnt broken in the first place. The body possession mechanic was scrapped, and while the story remained mostly the same, the concept changed to an adventure set in what can be described as an RPG fail state.
Ringlorn Saga Gaiden solidified earlier this year, with the game being about 40% complete, and were aiming to launch the game sometime this spring. We hope that despite these major changes youll enjoy a dark, yet cozy RPG. The Steam page will be updated soon with new screenshots and details, and the devlogs will continue until morale improves. Thank you for your support and interest in our game.

We're excited to announce Demon Lord Reincarnation Gaiden, our new game. Originally, this scenario was planned for a sequel, but it took off in its own direction and became an Ultima-style game with a new story. However, the initial draft was too good to abandon, so we turned it into a standalone expansion, similar to how Wizardry II was to the original Wizardry.

KEY FEATURES

• Enjoy a new scenario with new character classes and improved game systems
• Survive through brutal turn-based battles, where poor judgment can result in the permanent loss of a party member
• Unlock new skills in the heat of the battle, from devastating attacks to underhanded moves
• Inventory system with a variety of consumable items to buff, improve and customize your characters, including the ability to cheat death
• Come up with new party builds using new character classes and skills
• Find safe spots to regain your health and make sure the monsters won't get a drop on you
• Enjoy stylish visuals supported by atmospheric music and rocking battle tunes
• Read the manual, it's there for a reason!

Das Geisterschiff and Der Geist series turn five years old today. In these experimental dungeon crawlers, you play as a mech pilot and complete dangerous missions in a dying world. These games offer unique wireframe-style visuals to simulate the "visual sensor" of your Robotic Combat Suit and atmospheric electronic music in the style of 80's electro-industrial. The series enjoyed limited success, but these games remain special to me, as they started my career as an indie game developer. All games are 66% off on Steam right now. https://store.steampowered.com/app/975230/Das_Geisterschiff__The_Ghost_Ship/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1217070/Der_Geisterturm__The_Ghost_Tower/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1581240/Der_Geisterjger__The_Ghost_Hunter/ Also, we are making a new Der Geist game. It's in the early stages of development. Thank you for your support over the years. -- Romanus Surt of Graverobber Foundation

Hi everyone! In this DevLog, we'd like to talk about Ringlorn Saga Gaiden, its design, and the advancements from the previous game. Please note that the game is still in development, so the screenshots may not reflect the final version.

What is Ringlorn Saga Gaiden?

Does it play the same as the bonus mode?

How far along is it? When is it coming out?

We're excited to announce Ringlorn Saga Gaiden, our next game. Due to the warm reception and interest in the Temple of Rebirth bonus dungeon in the original game, we've decided to make a standalone RPG based on the possession mechanics. Ringlorn Saga Gaiden is an adventure RPG inspired by the Japanese PC classics. After dying in a decisive battle, your spirit is separated from your body, and you must exact your revenge on the Dark Lord by possessing his minions.

• A short-but-sweet Action RPG that won't hold your hand, nor waste your time
• Fight enemies to get stronger, possess their bodies, and use their abilities to survive
• Explore an open world, find items that will strengthen your spirit, and complete objectives in any order
• Simple but nuanced game mechanics and controls
• MSX-inspired 8-bit sound
• CRT filter for an authentic retro experience
• If you lose your way, pray to Morrigan
