Hello Dusty Pals/ Dust-ites/ Dust heads, We're finally rounding the bend on having all our story content implemented with the remaining 4 romance arcs added, and thus, a full version 1! (Insert trumpet sounds) It's been a colossal project for two people, but we're proud of what we've done, and I, personally, feel good about putting a host of love stories into the world that are healthy, dynamic, and written entirely by a woman. So rarely do we see relationships in games depicted with realistic complexity, but I think that's what makes them feel like a real connection. I'm excited to hear what players think (so don't forget to leave a review, it helps with visibility and we're so tiny, we can use all the help we can get!) As with our early access releases, you can expect a tested release that's been lovingly QA'd by yours truly, so don't feel you have to wait for updates to play. They will be a little slower to come from this point on, but we'll still be tuned in and committed to delivering a crash-free experience. Thanks so much for following our labor of love and we hope it means as much to you as it does to us. -Elle

Veil of Dust: A Homesteading Game™ is a historically-grounded fantasy homesteading game about finding your way after loss. Accompany the Callahan Siblings, Shane and Áine, as they learn to cope in the wake of the complete upset of their lives - and scramble to resolve the sudden appearance of dangerous, magical beasts.



Farm, Forage, & Hunt to Survive
Living in the desert isn't easy, but the magical abilities that force the protagonists to isolate themselves also helps them make the most of the environment. Farm, forage, and hunt to scrape by in the sparse desert of Eastern Oregon.

Unravel a Mystery
Guide Shane and Áine through the twists and turns of their search for answers about the monster attacks that threaten their fragile livelihood. Where will this undertaking lead these unlikely adventurers?

Forge Relationships
Survival isn't just about finding food and shelter. It's also about making life worth living. The support and attention of loved ones will bolster your spirit and give you strength.

Fight & Prevail
A homesteader isn't usually well-equipped for armed struggle, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Stand shoulder-to-shoulder with your sibling to defend your homestead against magical monsters.

Cook & Craft
Frontier cuisine is more about filling bellies than making an impression - scrape together what you can to conquer scarcity. Overcome challenges with tools and handicrafts that you create.
