Adrift: In the Corners of Time

Step into a hand-crafted world perched on the volcanic island chain of Abnerinni. You take on the role of Xeone, a time-traveling alchemist from the 14th century, whose mission is to navigate a fractured reality and find a way back home. The game blends atmosphere, precision combat, and thoughtful puzzles into a linear, story-driven journey that emphasizes mood, discovery, and consequence.

• Atmospheric exploration: Traverse a linear world that unfolds through cypress forests, eerie underground labyrinths, and deserted streets of a 14th-century city, all rendered with a distinctive, hand-crafted touch.
• Third-person combat: Engage demonic adversaries in tactical encounters using Xeone’s arsenal, including the Plasma Rifle and Blood Blade. Use throwable tools such as Molotovs and EMP Perfume Bottles to gain the upper hand.
• Environmental puzzles: Progress by shaping the environment through a 3D painting mechanic, discovering hidden keys, interacting with ancient mechanisms, and unlocking secret passageways that reveal a deeper layer of the world.
• Mysterious narrative: The story unfolds through environmental storytelling and steady, linear progression, inviting you to piece together Xeone’s displacement and what it means for her timeline.
• Original ambient score: An entirely original soundtrack bathes the landscapes in a living, immersive atmosphere, heightening the beauty and unease of each location.
• Versus Mode: Challenge friends in local 2-player splitscreen across the islands of Abnerinni. Use terrain, enemies, and terrain advantage to outlast your opponent—the last one standing wins.

If you crave a contemplative, slightly haunted adventure that blends exploration, combat, and environmental storytelling, this title invites you to chase time’s edges and discover what lies in the corners beyond.
