Guess it's #introduction time?

I'm Peter, young of heart, (relatively) old of age, and somewhere in-between during a full moon...

I ✍️ about #indiegames on www.wraithkal.com.

🚧 Sorry everyone, it appears we're currently under a DDOS attack and our host, Linode, put a networking restriction on our main web server, meaning it isn't publicly available. We've reached out to them for more information. Hope to have an update soon.

Heads up: www.wraithkal.com is experiencing turbulence due to technical stuff, and as such, is currently unreachable.

You can find the demo on Steam now!
