    A logic puzzle game about a hero's destiny you can't control
    www.nonostante.io
    Facebook page
    Twitter: @AedoEpisodes

    Gameplay
    You have no control of the hero. You have to manipulate the environment, beat puzzles, solve minigames and complete sidequests to allow the hero succeed in the journey.
    The hero moves on a predefined path, you can’t change the path of the fate.



    Story
    The game features a rich and complex story.
    An Aedo is a storyteller and you are the audience. Our Aedo is telling you the story of an unnamed hero doomed by the curse of the Mark. People call him the Marked.

    I like what this seems to be. Environmental puzzles threaded together in a JRPG world. I think it's quite a clever concept that hasn't been done like this before, will be following this thread!

    Many thanks! Glad you like the idea.
    Now the game is in alpha, a bit rough, but if you want I can give you a super secret access to try it a little bit.
    Let me know.

    Some updates about the game mechanics.

    During the game the hero will met some people and interact with them.
    Usually there are some puzzle/enigma to solve.
    Here some screenshots, hope you like them

    Looks sweet! Seems like there are a nice variety of puzzles (even if I can't tell from the screenshots how those ones work).
    I'd definitely love the super secret access if it's possible, and would be glad to give feedback :)

    Thanks!
    I'm packaging all and publishing to my server.
    Because weekend started, I'll give you access next week.

    Just a little gif of a sidequest interaction
    Watch carefully... : )

    I'm sorry, only the country? The OS choice works?
    What device/browser are you using?

    Edit:
    The toucharchade ios app has a bug on list selection! So you should use the browser! Thanks!

    So I played for a bit last night. Here are some notes for improvements.

    - English needs sorting out, especially in the into story. I understand English isn't your first language but as it is now I couldn't even work out the whole story and this will lead people to turn away from the game. Curse is often spelt course. Words missing letter. Sentences that don't make sense etc etc.
    - Nothing to explain whether you character goes left or right when they get to an obstacle.
    - In some levels the character walks on a random path making it feel like a lottery as the whether you have chosen the correct fix or not.
    - Could do with a speed up button the second time people ruin through a episode.
    - Found it very difficult to stop at characters to talk to them each time and ended up just mashing the screen until it worked.
    - When you fail a episode it goes to the start with nothing to explain what you did wrong creating great confusion.

    If you send me through some of your scripts I will be more than willing to go through them a fix them for you if you would like. I have done this for other games in the past.

    Looks cool! The whole JRPG with puzzles reminds me of the Golden Sun games :)

    Hello, working hard on the game.
    Thanks to the beta test (you can JOIN HERE for free) and feedback received, we improved the game a lot.

    Besides changes, we added more enigmas and minigames, here's a brief preview of the lockpicking puzzle, a small challenge you will face during the adventure.

    Hope you enjoy it.

    Hi, we worked hard during the beta on all feedback and we had a long time to fix and balance the gameplay. The game changed a lot and deeply. Now we think we reached something intresting and soon to be published.

    We made some videos, trailer and gameplay.
    Soon we'll publish the game, about mid-october.
    If anyone want to try and give feedback on the last version, the beta is still open.
    Many thanks.
