Eldervale: designing a sun that steals memories

Eldervale is a portrait action RPG about a masked wanderer, a kingdom lit by a false sun, and a sister named Lyra. Every dawn takes something away, so the story is built around one question: what does the world get to remember?

Design notes from the build

• Combat is one thumb: dodge, light, heavy, stagger, and enemy intent. If a hit does not read clearly on a small screen, it gets redone.
• Three disciplines - Warden, Ranger and Arcanist - are meant to be different rhythms, not three flavours of the same damage.
• The map is 27 regions with six towns, entrances and hidden roads. The Hollow Sun always points to the next thread, but following it is your call.
• Three endings, 26 quests, and companion moments that change what you keep.

If you have played, the feedback that helps most: where did the difficulty spike, and which discipline felt weakest?
