Knockturne

Knockturne is an RPG about Peppy, an ordinary adult who falls asleep with a dreamcatcher given to her by a childhood friend. In a dream world shaped by the emotions of her memories, she must free an emotionally complex boss and find a way to wake from her deep sleep.

Dreams and emotions

You cannot use weapons or fight your opponents directly. Instead, you read their minds and respond to their emotions, choosing whether to offer reconciliation or witness their regret. You can also interact with mysterious NPCs and look within yourself.

Turn-based battles

Battles combine strategic skill use with bullet-game attacks. Bosses’ emotions try to harm you, so you dodge their attacks and collect Emotional Energy. You use that energy to continue the conversation.

A dreamlike world

The world uses graphics and illustrations reminiscent of gruesome fairy tales, with visuals created in Unreal 5. An atmospheric soundtrack accompanies the story.
