Green Bay, WI (August 13, 2024) – Midwest Games—an industry veteran-led publisher whose mission is to support and showcase abundant talent across the Midwest and underrepresented regions—and southwest indie developer Ganymede Games are proud to announce that turn-based sci-fi deck-building RPG Dark Sky is set to release on September 24, 2024 on Windows PC via Steam and GOG.
Dark Sky offers a fresh experience for deckbuilding and RPG players, featuring in-depth character card customization, strategic combat, and clever card synergies to explore. Set on the once peaceful mining planet, Wolf Prime, players will engage in card and grid-based combat, optimize their party’s abilities, study their enemies, and exploit their weaknesses to maximize damage and, ultimately, liberate their home.
Watch the Dark Sky release date trailer here:
Players will take on the role of Squig, a modest shipyard worker who has witnessed a mysterious force pull all spacecraft down from the sky, shrouding the landscape in wreckage, debris, and danger. With the help of Squig and his friend Norton, players will gather a team of survivors for a journey to uncover the mystery behind the sudden cataclysm. As devastation rains from above, players must take matters into their own hands before Wolf Prime is torn apart.
Formerly titled Xenotheria, Dark Sky is Ganymede Games’ first title, and the initial narrative of a much larger universe to come.
Key features of Dark Sky:
- Master Tactical Card Combat: Engage in card and grid-based combat and take turns to plan your party’s actions to optimize their abilities and defeat your enemies.
- Build Your Deck: Upgrade cards with a branching card upgrade system. Each card has a unique progression tree for you to customize.
- Assemble Your Party: Build your team from an eclectic roster of six characters, each with their own set of cards and distinct playstyle.
- Play Your Way: Experiment with builds! Tailor your decks to shape your playstyle with a deckbuilding system where you’re in control. Save multiple decks at a time, re-spec, and be ready for any situation.
- Explore An Immersive World: Explore striking locations inhabited by a variety of species and enjoy hand-painted artwork and an evocative soundtrack as you hunt for resources, allies, and answers.
Dark Sky launches on September 24, 2024 on Windows PC via Steam and GOG, and features language support for Simplified Chinese, Russian, German, French, and Spanish. Wishlist Dark Sky today.
