Hello everyone and welcome to the Sunless Sky project account! We are a three person Portuguese team planning to create a text adventure game for a school Project. So this begs the question: What IS The Sunless Sky after all?

Hello everyone! We'd like to apologize for our absence, due to circunstances beyond our control we couldn't quite afford to update you on our progress last week.

To make up for it, we have some very exciting things to show you!

[The Sunless Sky @SunlessSkyGame]

This picture here represents the wound system in our game. When you fail certain stat checks or by making certain choices you gain a wound on a certain body part. This system will be further explained in our indiedb post that will be up soon.

In the meantime how about we celebrate a milestone?
With everything written so far, that being the character creation prologue and part of chapter 1, we have just reached 10k words!

Hello everyone! Our apologies for staying quiet on this account but other, more time sensitive projects had to take priority for a moment there. We want to assure you however, that we're hard at work on Sunless Sky and devoting our undivided attention to it!

The environment around you grows cold as you approach. You feel yourself being watched from all around the clearing.

Wake up.
It feels strange. You feel like you're in a body that's not quite your own, yet you also feel like it's where you should be.

Look around.
The room is empty. White walls surrounding a white floor, no furniture in sight. No way to enter or exit either.

You are alone.

[The Sunless Sky @SunlessSkyGame]

Through willpower alone you make it to the source of the light. A circle of massive stones lays in the middle of a clearing, runes marked along their surface and glowing ever so softly. A mass of light hovers in the middle, the grass beneath it covered in snow.

Sorry everyone, we don't have much of an update for you all this week. You see, we're taking a bit of a break after spending a lot of time and energy in hurrying some stuff along for presentations for school.

Next week we'll be back to work though so look forward to that!

Little light makes it through the trees. You notice there's a path by your side, and it seems to go where you came from, but you're not too sure. Paying some more attention to your surroundings, you notice a blue light not too far away.
