About This Game

The Kingdom of Dotnia was once a 2D pixel world, until its king decided that sprites were outdated and decreed the entire realm be converted to 3D. The kingdom obliged, transforming lock, stock, and barrel into a blocky three-dimensional version of itself. But the kingdom carries an older problem that predates the graphical upgrade: the evil Dark King Onyx, who once plunged Dotnia into darkness by stealing six magical orbs, was sealed away by a legendary hero using those same orbs and a fabled sword. That sealed orb has now been stolen by the Dark Bishop Fuelle, and chaos has returned. You are the grandchild of the hero who made the first seal — which means the responsibility falls to you. Armed with the legendary sword and tasked with recovering the orbs, you set out to do what your ancestor did once before and restore peace to a kingdom that has already been through enough.
