Dry Sand Damp Steps

Really short but a cute small adventure with a surprisingly good OST to back it up.

A very fun adventure that can be completed in an hour, with entertaining characters, an interesting world and WRETCHED FIRE ELEMENTALS THAT STOLE ALL MY WATER, THE FOUL CREATURES. Maybe the real oasis was the grandma I scammed along the way?

Lovely little indie game with great atmosphere, charming characters, and an intriguing setting. Gives strong nostalgia for old rpgmaker adventure games, a short enveloping experience that pulls you right in. If you have a bit of time on your hands, and you're looking to unwind from our evermore restless world, can definitely recommend DSDS. PS: Old Bones MVP and the bloody campfires got me every time lmao

[h1]A Delightful Little Post-Apocalyptic Journey[/h1] I just finished this charming little RPG Maker game and had to share my thoughts! The premise is simple but effective - you're a water spirit searching for water in a dried-up wasteland. What impressed me was how much the game accomplishes in its short runtime (about 30-40 minutes). The soundtrack deserves special mention - it perfectly captures the melancholy of this post-apocalyptic world while still having moments of beauty. It really elevates the whole experience.

A very short game with several possible endings, depending how you act with the world. The biggest strength is its soundtrack that really sets the mood for this postapocalyptic scenery. Maybe we will learn more about this world in an update~

Cute smol post apocalyptic adventure

I had an awesome time playing this - love the npc interactions

Very good game :) - Biased

Gets you surprisingly invested in the story very quickly. There's a strong feeling of depth to the characters you meet and the world they live in, which is very impressive considering the length of the game. I went through my first playthrough carefully, but I learned at the end that I'd missed some items (and their related story elements, presumably). Looking forward to making another pass to see what I missed, and what different decisions might reveal :) Overall - the puzzles were fun, the writing was excellent, and I'm excited to take a closer look. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who appreciates a great story in a game.
