Heads up! This build is an early demo that reflects only a small portion of the final game. We need your feedback and support to help refining it, but keep in mind that this is just a bit of what we've got cooking. Thank you so much!

The Knights at Port Delaney is an action-RPG and coming-of-age story about the impact of words and imagination.

ABOUT?

Theo is a little brother in Port Delaney who, like everyone else, can't wait for their loved ones to finally come home. He can't wait for life to go back to normal when his big brother comes back -- just like his best friend's dad is coming back, the neighbour's kids, and then they'll finally get the train to happen, and...!

His brother would never have had to go away if he was a hero, like in the Kingdom in his mind. In his imagination, he's the Black Knight! A hero to all who can save everyone. Maybe if the townsfolk believed in him a little more, he could be their hero too...

But even if they asked... could he be the hero? Even if he tried?

SO WHAT DO YOU DO?

Explore daily life in Port Delaney!

Chat with your neighbours, learn their stories!

Fight your way through the vast lands of the Kingdom!

Confront the unknown...?!

... and more!???
