Details: Video game
Developer: Oleander Garden
Publisher: Hex Code Coven
Platform: Microsoft Windows
Genres: Role-playing game, Indie game
Description: A thousand worlds surround our own, composed of bits and bytes. When they die, where do they go; what secrets do they hide? Stumble ye, wayfarer, through the wreckage of a dead MMO.PAGAN: Autogeny is an experimental first person open world role playing game set in the digital ruins of a largely abandoned MMORPG. It is heavily inspired by long-forgotten bargain-bin 1990s adventure games, and by a general ethos of user-hostile design. Features include:Over 100 acres of lovingly handcrafted playable spaceAn increasingly esoteric series of secret endingsFive major zones + a litany of hidden areasFour idiosyncratic repeatable boss fightsOver 7000 possible gear combinationsFive strange and eldritch skillsVery cursed gender_magick()PAGAN: Autogeny is an exercise in aesthetic maximalism — In other words, it's pretty big, at least by normal altGame standards. A full adventure will take several hours, but you can return to spawn at any point to save and exit. The game also autosaves when passing through doors, in case you have to run off in a hurry. Be sure to consult the authentically 1990s manual (enclosed in the download) for further guidance.Good luck, wayfarer, and God Speed.
