The Cold Trail Demo 2

Version: 1.0.015 days ago

It's been two years since Radovan took up his sword, but when his friend from the Greater Ilkorite army needed his help, he donned his armor and headed towards the Untamed Tundra to the north.

But the Tundra does not plan on making his mission any easier. Monsters prowl the wilderness, ne'er-do-wells call the shots, and spirits are said to roam the lands.

If he wants to find his friend Nordem, he'll need to brave these dangers, and he can't do it alone.

Two other lone travelers will join him on his journey. Mira, on the run from the local brigands, agrees to help him to repay her debt. Ulthur, who allies with Radovan to further his own quest for knowledge, will guide him in navigating the spiritual side of the world.

Delve into dangerous dungeons, fight fearsome foes, and peer into another world, all to rescue Radovan's brother-in-arms.

And make sure to grab a coat. It's cold enough to freeze over the underworld out here!


​My hopes are to give this an engaging, character-driven story.

Featured in the demo:
-Rewards for exploration and paying attention to your surroundings
-Avoidable on-map encounters instead of random battles
-About an 2 hours of gameplay

Planned Features:
-Some other sidequests
-An actual world map
-Fishing minigame? (very important)

Current Progress: 35%-ish 

Release window: Eventually


This demo was a submission for the RPG Mania III game jam. https://itch.io/jam/rpg-mania-iii. I wasn't able to finish the full game before the submission date. My hubris...

Current Progress: 20%-ish

Release window: Eventually

The full game will be free.

Long time no see. I've been busy, so I don't really have an expected release date for the full version...

No new story content here, but there are a good few changes here. You can see the patch notes of Version 1.0.6 of the demo below.

Heyo, been a while.

The Cold Trail Demo v1.0.5 is now available. (Update notes in article.)

I was going to hold off on releasing this update, but there were bugs that needed fixin. (Thanks, thesacredlobo.)

Version 1.0.4 of the demo is now out. You can see the patch notes in the article below.

There are a lot of small changes, so I suppose that makes this a medium-size update...

Also included is a discussion on the status of the hiatus.

I haven't provided any updates for a while. Here's the deal with that (see article):

tldr: the game's on hiatus until May/June 2023
