Still time to put Virtue's Heaven as a deep cut that shows you are cool in your game of the year lists
mokkograd.net Eric @mokkograd.net · 11d
What is Virtue's Heaven? Is it an "Evil Game"? Is it an attempt at expressing our current day's malaise in an action platformer? Or is it "not a good metroidvania" with a final act that is "just weird"?
Whatever the case, it definitely is 20% off on Steam!

A game where anything could be a battle and where the names of your moves carry meaning. In a land infused by the hatred of a dead tyrant, four travelers will kill a noble, accidentally crown a King, and kill the Moon.

It doesn't have a name yet, so I'm still calling it "JRPG Game".

#TeaseYaGame
Screenshot from my JRPG project, it shows a party of four human beings fighting a door and two vaguel robot-shaped entities, that are called "Reupel". The lower third of the screen is occupied with a menu screen. Currently the cursor sits on a move "Memory of a past encounter", which will perform whatever attack the character in question was last hit with. This can lead to some funny moments, where you accidentally heal an enemy, or alternatively kill a party member. Obviously the opposite is possible as well, which makes it pretty powerful. Another battle screen shot from JRPG game. It shows the party fighting a "Cute Mouse", which is in the process of performing a move that makes the text "Nuzzle Nuzzle" appear on screen. A perfectly harmless enemy. Nothing evil will happen in the next turn, for sure... Screenshot from what's currently existing of the Dungeon in JRPG game. It's a top down view of a character standing in an entrance hallway, to a vaguely ruinous looking tech-base environment. The upper side of the screen shows a text box that says: Excerpt from the Manuscript of Pale: As a saying among the people of Insel goes: 'The first step towards rebellion is disobedience.' Screenshot from the "Rest" scene in JRPG game. It shows the characters Vortex and Round Robin sitting in front of a camp fire, while having a conversation. A textbox underneath says: "Vortex: I just couldn't do it anymore. I just stood there, in the middle of nowhere with a sword in my hand."

Very cool game hitting a big milestone!

Virtue's Heaven has finally reached the 10 review threshold and to both celebrate and potentially capitalize on the (marginal and temporary) boost in visibility, I've put the game on sale for this week!

It is the Steam Summer sale and all of my games, including Virtue's Heaven are discounted! Why not buy a copy of 2025's most underrated videogame, and leave a positive review, so that it might lose this awful qualifier.

New Blogpost:

I released a videogame and the business worm in my head wants me to post about it all the time, because how else will people notice it, when all I want to do is take naps and think about JRPG battle systems.

The wrong people own the future, your friends are imprisoned and the world is about to end. There’s no more time for deliberation.

It is time for desperate actions.

It is finally time to end the Age of Reason.

I worked on this game for seven years and it turned into a Metroidvania without movement upgrades (because you start with them) where you use your body to destroy Capitalism's Soul.

Virtue's Heaven comes out on May 20th, please wishlist it on Steam:
