Once Upon a Jester - a theatrical, musical adventure is coming to PC in 2022!

Hey everyone! We are very glad to announce Once Upon a Jester - a new diamond in our publishing lineup! Once Upon a Jester is being developed by Bonte Avond - a game studio made up of 4 musicians. They really like going with first ideas and putting lots of homemade indie music in their games. Always trying to be conscious of diversity in their games a- theres a lot of jokes in Bonte Avonds games, but never at anyone's expense. You may heard of them because of their previous game - Everybody Wham Wham. Check out our announcement trailer: [previewyoutube=nQl4jVzUffI;full][/previewyoutube] The game is a story about best friends Sok & Jester planning a mischievous scheme to steal the Royal Diamond! To complete their master plan, they must start an improv theatre show and outperform every other act - including their rivals, Hofnar & Bok. Only becoming the best show in the kingdom will get them invited to the Royal Theatrical Spectacle in the Royal Palace, where the king keeps his precious gem.
They embark on a grand adventure across a fantasy kingdom, meeting tons of wacky characters, performing improvised shows and singing their hearts out. Along the way, they unintentionally discover the freedom and joy of musical theatre. Will the pair change their wicked ways or do whatever it takes to get rich?

Once Upon a Jester is coming soon on PCs and other platforms. Find out more about the game and stay updated by adding it to your Steam wishlist: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1668190/Once_Upon_a_Jester/
