SEPTEMBER 8, 2016 — Dark Flames’s pre-alpha demo is now available to all Patrons supporting the game’s development on Patreon.

Relive the retro greats with a new gripping storyline in Dark Flame, a 2D ARPG where you play as the protagonist Taharial, a crusader in the Baltic Crusades. When insanity starts to take over those around you, you set off on a quest to defeat this unknown evil before all is lost in the chaos. With challenging gameplay set in a beautiful medieval environment, will you be able to face the foes that lie ahead and unveil the mystery?
Dark Flame features:

“I’m hoping to deliver a fantastic gaming experience to those who, like me, want that retro action feel. Most players have enjoyed what I have so far, and I believe they will get that warm fuzzy feeling when they load up the final version of the game. To turn this possibility into a reality, supporters via Patreon are the lifeblood of our development. I’m very grateful for those who are choosing to accompany me on this journey.”
— Warren Smith, Dark Flame Founder and Lead Developer
