Island Off Outer Darkness
A downloadable game
Island Off Outer Darkness follows the narrative of the Postman, a resident Postal Worker in a small fishing village in Antarctic waters off the coast of the volcano Outer Darkness. They start new to the job, and must deliver packages to residents day-by-day, week-by-week. As they learn more about the island and its townsfolk, aberrations in space begin to appear. Featuring music and visual artistic work by several ex-RFCK members, Island Off Outer Darkness is the story of this town, and these people.
Features:
- Live out the life of a kind of antisocial government employee in an alien place.
- Act out thrilling strand-type delivery simulator gameplay.
- Read and press buttons in a menuing and dialogue system inspired by classic RPGs.
- Go green with the gardening and hybridizing of over 15 otherworldly crops.
- Chum fast by fishing in the ocean, with over 40 reelable fish, plants, and rocks.
- Keep your ears peeled for a 31-track OST composed by the artist CalamityRhapsody.
- Experience an unfolding story full of intrigue... and mystery.
- Discover the world of Kolob, via its effects on the isolated fishing village.
Meet the townsfolk:
- Pluripotent Fester, a former freedom fighter and political writer for the liberation of Argyre for Pluripotentkind. Depressive, and in exile.
- Brucehilda, a grandaunt, plumber, and resident of the island for over 60 years. And a doppelgänger, of her "twin sister".
- The Postman, a gender-nonspecific mid-twenties youth from the mainland, new to their Postmanly job on the island.
- Leonargo, a scholarly sea people from the depths, fished up and localized a few years before Island Off Outer Darkness takes place.
- Aleks, an awkward farmer on the desolate rock and lover of his devoted partner Bucephalus.
- And many more!
Most honestly, this is slow, short game for ex-RFCK people. It has all the things above, though!
