Fragment

Synopsis

A millennia ago, the world of Braegarthe was attacked by a dark and sinister force whose name has been lost to time. To save the kingdom, Zar’ralle, a powerful sorcerer, fought against the Darkness. However, its power was too great. Though Zar’alle was able to seal it away at the cost of his life, the world was split in two by a mystical veil. As time went on, the magic disappeared from the new world, Earth, and Braegarthe became a fairytale.

Marina, a rising softball MVP for Quakersville High School, grew up hearing such stories from her grandmother, but seldom believed them. What 16-year-old believes in magic these days? At least, that’s what she thought until she learned that fairytales are not all fiction.

The former royal wizard and zealous magical researcher Mirajor, in his quest for knowledge, unknowingly releases an ancient and powerful dark force. Driven mad by the dark influence, he conjures a dark miasma upon the kingdom Braegarthe. As the land becomes corrupted, the veil separating the two worlds is tearing. As a result, dark magic seeps into Marina’s world, slowly draining the planet’s life essence.

Marina is summoned by The Will of the Worlds to Braegarthe as its Champion to face the Darkness. She must master her new abilities and explore ancient dungeons throughout Braegarthe for the Relics of Zar’ralle to restore the veil and banish the Darkness before it’s too late for both worlds.

Very solid game! The art was great and the general jumping and movement mechanics felt fun to play. I think the combat can be polished a bit more since the enemies felt buggy at times. Overall I think this is a good game for a school project, well done!
