Isles of Bounty

Press Kit

Description

Isles of Bounty is a dungeon-crawler set amongst the floating Aerium Archipelago, where hordes of treasures await those bold enough to brave the harsh, rich and varied environments found high in the clouds! Explore the uniquely-themed islands, battling all manner of enemies - be they human or otherwise - in turn-based combat, using your newfound weapons and trinkets to the best of your ability as you fend off those who would claim those same treasures for themselves!

Step into the shoes of Rooker Drake, a sky pirate in the employ of seasoned and successful pirate captain Henry Aviary, as he traverses through five distinct environments on the hunt for the most valuable treasure in the skies – the Quixotic Cogs, said to hold a mystical power bestowed unto them from on high. Along the way, Rooker will meet colourful allies and fearsome foes – all brought together or against each other in the fight to own these celestial treasures.

From the vibrant and shining home of Fairy King Oberon to the freezing expanses of the tundra that the ferocious beast Fenrir calls home, experience a world where 2D sprite-work blends with 3D environments, creating a sense of depth in each new location as the world itself seeps onto your path.

Features

- Explore five expansive dungeons that cover distinct visual themes, from shining fairy forests to sweltering volcano summits.

- Indulge your curiosity by hunting for treasures around every corner of the 3D world, finding new and powerful weapons as you progress.

- Topple your foes in turn-based combat using the weapons, magic and items you find throughout your travels.

- Amass a small fortune in Gold and use it to replenish your supplies in the Shop.

- Experience Rooker’s story as he makes new friends and bands together with them to right the wrongs of the evil forces across the Aerium Archipelago.

History

Isles of Bounty is Dedline Studios’ first game. Dedline is comprised of university students, who came together to work on Isles of Bounty as a group assignment. A project grown from hours of love and labour, Isles of Bounty sails across the skies and into players’ hands as the first major work undertaken by the studio.

We have strived to create a dungeon-crawler with a unique feel across its atmosphere, visual style and narrative, inspired by the likes of Paper Mario and Octopath Traveller.
