Hi all,

I'm very happy to 'formally' introduce my story-based puzzle adventure 'The Last Night Train' in the forum  ..

Gameplay

• 'The Last Night Train' is a story-based puzzle adventure with a '90s JRPG look' and movement patterns. It's a solo indie dev project 6 years in the making.
  
• You play as Ovid, solving environmental puzzles, e.g., by using elemental weapons and having boss encounters that include puzzles. (There are different difficulty levels).
  
• The game focuses on atmosphere, mystery, humor, and narrative depth with psychological themes.
  
• All game assets are fully AI-free.
  
• The release of the full game is planned for February 2027.
  

Story:
When Ovid wakes up on a train where the night never ends, his love, Thera, is gone. To find her, he must unlock the cargo car, convince a whimsical wind gnome to help him, and face a strange woman who brings back memories of Ovid's last journey with Thera – a trip aboard a night train to his farmland, the last remnant of his family. This sets in motion a journey through a strange world in search of Thera. But what if she was never the one he needed to find?

Demo and Full Game

• The first playable demo is out and includes Act 1 (approx. 1 hour of playtime).
  
• The demo runs on Windows and is on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/46752...rain_Demo/

Any thoughts or feedback would be highly appreciated. 
(If your feedback includes spoilers, I also have a Discord channel where you can share it with me: https://discord.gg/ZxvN8AuFdG).

Cheers, 
Nici

PS: Currently, I'm also participating in the 'Steam Train Fest', which is still ongoing this weekend; just in case you're looking for some more train adventures on discount (though, of course, I'd appreciate it if you also give 'The Last Night Train' demo a try  ).
