An Independent Game Project

Asphalt blazes blue-hot under an eternal summer sun by day and a neon haze permeates the sky by night. Believe it or not, this sleepless city is one of the last bastions protecting humanity. Who would want to darken it for good?

That's exactly what you'll have to find out as you explore a sprawling metropolis in this nostalgic turn-based RPG. Visit dozens of colorful locations including resorts, museums, dive bars, and even alternate dimensions as you uncover the city's hidden secrets, and make some friends (and enemies!) along the way.
