Between Realities: Devlog #4

Steam post image “These passages… I've never laid eyes on them. Spires of solid stone corridors, built with an architecture I don't comprehend, carved by hands that shouldn't be possible. Did my grandfather hide them from me? Etched on these walls, somehow, I recognize the ancient myths he used to speak. Who built this place - and where does it go? Perhaps the crow knows more than it's letting on. Time to get some answers.”

Over the past month, we’ve ventured deeper into the mysteries surrounding the dungeons of Among the Trolls, the focus of our fourth Between Realities devlog!

Ready to descend into the depths and uncover more?

INTO THE DEPTHS

Hidden behind thick stone walls and away from prying eyes, deep within the forests that stretch across the archipelago you’ll explore in Among the Trolls, lie places as ancient as the world itself. Here, some secrets are carefully kept out of sunlight.

It’s in these strange - and far from safe - places that the protagonist’s story begins to intertwine with old legends and long-buried truths. With every step, every exploration, you’ll uncover something new.

As we craft our dungeons, atmosphere remains foremost in our minds. We want players to have that unique sensation of being lost - of venturing through halls carved by invisible hands, where curiosity alone is the compass. We want you to feel absolutely present in a place outside of time, where a faint glow, your tools, and your keen intuition will be your only guides.

Of course, as you might expect, not all of the encounters will be friendly. The secrets buried deep below have guardians of their own, and these have made the darkened corridors their home. These combat encounters will test your fighting skills and resource management - and you'll need to keep your wits about you to find your way back to the world you once knew.

We're working hard to bring all of these elements together, buffing lighting, sound, and all the tiny details to make each dungeon a unique exploration experience. Things are moving along steadily, and we can't wait for you to lose yourselves in the depths - to discover the hidden pieces of story that we've left behind these ancient walls.

As always, we invite you to follow us on our social media channels (X, Facebook, Bluesky, Instagram, TikTok) and join our official Discord to share your feedback and stay up to date on our progress.
