Tales of Lost Ages Vol. 1 is Out Now!

An anthology of four short-fantasy action-adventure games!

Steam Page

Descriptions after the jump:

Tomb of the Devourer

The Treasure Hunter had traveled a long way. In the Valley of Kings, the tombs lay defiled, despoiled of all treasure. All but one. One tomb had remained impervious to looting. A tomb of a nameless king of an age lost to history. Not one would-be thief who had ever challenged its depths had returned. The Treasure Hunter was determined to be the first. When he stood before the entrance to the tomb, half buried in sand, he had expected difficulty getting inside. To his surprise, the ancient stone gate rose open under its own power like a gaping maw. An open invitation. Perhaps this would be easier than he thought…

Ruby in the Mire

Ruby is an adventurer-for-hire who does the dirty jobs no one else will take! A malignant force has corrupted the ruins of an ancient temple, half-sunken under a muddy swamp. The corruption has spread to a nearby town and poisoned their water supply. The town has pooled their money together to hire someone to venture into the temple’s depths and battle the demon which has taken root there. Ruby is the one woman for the job!

The Waystone’s Toll

The Mercenary had hoped to find rest in the town of Knights Passing. However, when he arrived, he felt the telltale tension in the air that told him all was not well in this small town. A week prior, the town’s relic known as the Waystone had been stolen, and some of the townsfolk went missing. Each night since, demons have emerged from the manor of Erstel Krestalor, a wealthy merchant who was among the missing villagers. The guards have barely managed to fight off the nightly onslaught. It looks like The Mercenary will have to earn his rest!

Hunter in the Court of Beasts

The hunter sniffed the air and knew her quarry was near. It was no surprise to her when she felt a tension in the air upon entering the village, and even less of a surprise when she heard its cause. The beasts of the woods had grown dangerous and organized. At foragers went missing. Then an entire hunting party was killed. Now the villagers fear to go out at night for beasts roam the outskirts of the village waiting for prey. The hunter listened to the villages story and knew she was in the right place. This is how it had been each time. She was certain: one of the Beast Lords had arisen here. She prepared to head north into the heart of the woods, ready to begin the hunt.

You had talked on twitter in an interesting thread about a dream big project you would like to make one day but are putting off; what can you tell us about the project that you would like to share and is it related to your current small games projects universe? :D

So, I don't want to talk to much specifics about the game itself, since talking about your ideas before you make them is a good way to satiate the creative urge without actually fulfilling it. Since I still want to make the game some time I need to keep it bottled in until I can channel that energy into the game itself.

That being said, I can talk *around* the game idea.

First of all, to answer your question, yes, it is related to the overall Renegade Sector shared universe. In fact, this idea was one of the original seeds that grew into the Renegade Sector universe. When I was making the original 2D Space Captain McCallery games years ago, I had the idea that they could take place in the same universe as this game idea I had. Figuring out how that made sense and what that meant was the origin of the Renegade Sector universe. So, yes, you could say that this idea is the first game concept I had which took place in the Renegade Sector universe.

I guess the other thing I can say is that the idea spun off from a small game I made back in my freeware days. It was one of those things where I had an idea for the game, but it would've been out of scope for what I was trying to do, so I broke the idea off into a potential future project. Similar to how Diorama Dungeoncrawl spun off from out-of-scope ideas I had while making Thunder Kid, and Breakneck City broke off from out-of-scope ideas I had while making Diorama Dungeoncrawl. However, in this case, the idea kept growing and growing in my head until it became something I would have to both dedicate a long period of time to, as well as learn a lot of new skills, in order to make properly. ~15 years later I've got the skills, but I don't have the time yet.
