A downloadable project

A darkness looms upon the northern end of the kingdom, colloquially known as the Vale.

A stalwart sellsword leaves behind heart break for a new home on a new horizon. 

Welcome to Warden

An open world sidescroller adventure where you explore & discover a robust network of places, characters and agendas.

Make friends and foes while traversing mountains, forests, deep underground, and across chaotic spirit realms.

Currently being developed using Godot 3+ and a library of resources accrued, Warden is a love letter to the age old action adventure experience. 

Overcome a range of landscapes and creatures by leveraging numerous spell effects, weapons, tools, and your wits.

From a humble entry in Serrena you'll explore a countryside and meet an eclectic assortment of characters, predators, opportunities and conflict and tell your story in the Vale.

Slaying and dodging goblins, ogres, kobolds, ghosts, orcs, skeletons, slimes, slugs, snakes, spiders and much more, you'll head through Greenvalley, follow the Evernight road up into the Heshen mountains and into Evernight City that sits in one of the many lava basins upon the dormant volcano, Vulkanus.

Find the many hidden colleges of Sapiensa, delve the deep dark tunnels of the Heshen mountain range.  Will you find a way to reach the reclusive dwarves in the deepest Vulkanian basins?

Travel to the Aethereum and traverse the motespace of Básimalt.  Learn to sling mojo from spirits of grandeur.  Will you succumb to flux madness?  Who will you help or hinder?

How will you live out your destiny in Warden?
