About the game: Under The Island

Under The Island captures the feeling of childhood wonder and 90's Saturday morning cartoons in an expansive adventure RPG. Join Nia, our plucky heroine, as she moves to Seashell Island. There, she meets Avocado, a local teenager whose reserved nature clashes with Nia's impulsiveness. Despite their differences, they uncover a startling secret: the island is doomed to sink! Step into Nia's shoes, battle monsters, solve puzzles, and explore vibrant ecosystems. Encounter a cast of unique characters, uncover island secrets, and save their home before it's too late.

Features:

- Embark on a thrilling adventure through a vibrant island world, filled with at least 6 different diverse biomes that change according to the day/night cycle and weather.
- Meet fascinating characters just waiting to get to know you with their own stories to tell!
- Or get foiled by and bicker with Avocado, that's fine too...
- Traverse treacherous dungeons and caves, ranging from sentient greenhouses, to treacherous ice caverns, to crazy saw mills, gathering unique items and artifacts to become stronger and unlock new abilities.
- Fight weird enemies like eggplants that can't stop throwing up on the floor, and wolves that somehow dig underground. And walking onions that would love nothing more than to whack you with their stalks... discover new ways to fight them, and new strategies with the artifacts, loot, and upgrades you discover around the island!
- Experience the world in unique different ways from playthrough to playthrough, with different events and challenges to encounter and overcome, all depending on the order you decide to approach them in.
- Uncover the secrets of the island's ancient past, piecing together clues to unravel the truth behind its mysterious sinking.
- Embrace the freedom and fluidity of an adventure directed by yourself, exploring the island's nooks and crannies at your own pace and discovering hidden secrets along the way.
- Befriend & help animals and treat them with snacks! Maybe some of them can help you?

About the company: Slime King Games

Slime King Games was founded in 2020 by Simone and Johannes Grünewald. Both founders bring impressive experience
from the gaming industry: Simone previously served as Art Director for the renowned Deponia series and
held the position of Head of Art at Daedalic Entertainment. Johannes began his career as a 2D animator on Deponia
2 and then evolved into a UI and Visual FX artist. Together, they have over 20 years of experience and have
contributed to numerous successful titles.

To bring their visions to life, they received musical support from renowned composers such as Miyoko Takaoka
(known for Terranigma), Edward Marianukroh (known for Chained Echoes), and Robert Kilpatrick (known for Born
of Bread). These talented artists contribute to creating the unique charm and atmosphere in Slime King Games‘
titles.

The mission of Slime King Games is to create new worlds where people love to dwell.
We see games as a malleable art form, where every detail is carefully crafted, thus creating precious moments that continue to live on even after the game ends, forging unforgettable memories.
