Ringwyrm

An Atmospheric and Immersive Journey...

Exploration, survival, and horrors await in this unique and strange adventure. As the horrors slowly boil, so will the player's power.

An Original Take on the FPS Genre...

Ringwyrm combines arcade-style action with immersive, atmosphere-driven gameplay mechanics. The FPS combat loop takes inspiration from classic action-horror titles, while fusing it with unique survival and meta-elements that make each playthrough distinctive.

Survival, Exploration, Action, Horror...

Otherworldly infected beings haunt every corner of the game map, and taking them down won't be easy. The player can't aim and move at the same time, so every shot counts! Plan every step of your journey in this bespoke, tactical, and methodical combat system. Explore a dense game world full of items, lore, and upgrades! Maintain your equipment's durability and your own health!

A World of Flawed, Memorable Characters...

Deep worldbuilding and lore, an enormous cast of characters, and diegetic choices haunt every corner of the narrative. This story-heavy adventure has over thirty NPCs, each with their own questlines and evolving dialogue. Learn their backgrounds, help them, and they may just survive...

Read item descriptions, grab books off shelves and tables, and talk for hours with NPCs—Ringwyrm allows the player to become intimate with its setting and will reward those paying close attention.

A Sprawling, Ever-Evolving World...

Ringwyrm has several systems that make each playthrough unique. One questline will lock out all other endings and quests, another may affect a different character—every choice has some consequence, and it is very rarely telegraphed. Certain actions will build an alignment with the eldritch forces at work in the world, causing strange stimuli and anomalies—no player will see everything in one or two playthroughs! Explore the dense and interconnected nonlinear map, meet and recruit NPCs to help your quest, protect those you love as best you can, and avoid the titular disease at all costs.

The Story So Far...

There, they find "Milk," a strange and arcane element that rapidly transforms their society.

You are Edna Gotts, a war orphan. You, along with your sisters, have been conscripted for a military operation to the Umbral Isle. A simple recon mission will turn into an unending nightmare, as everyone, even those who discovered and exploited this "Milk," learns what a mistake its use had become...
