Dear friends and supportes,
We are thrilled to invite you to the release party of our game What
Remains, the 27th of September 2018. After 2 years of hard work we are
ready to present the project during a festive evening at V2_,
Eendrachtsstraat 10, Rotterdam, NL.
Come and celebrate with us, play the game, download the ROM or get your
hands on a limited edition of the game on an original NES cartridge!
The doors will open at 20.00, after the official launch at 20.30 there
will be drinks and a performance by Utrecht's punk rock influenced
chiptune duo Men of Mega.

About the game
It is 1986. You just came home from a skate session when a Nintendo game
cartridge falls into your hands. Excited to find out what kind of game
is on the cartridge, you visit your friend who got a NES console for
Christmas. You plug in the cartridge and a strange list of encrypted
files appears...
What Remains is a darkly humorous 8-bit game for the emblematic 1985 NES
console, blending visual novel and adventure elements in a story
translating real events from the 80s into an epic quest to save the
world. As the story unravels, your life in Sunny Peaks transforms
dramatically, and you start uncovering a dark secret threatening
everyone. But no despair, your best friend is by your side... as well as
a very helpful cat.
The game is developed for the original NES hardware. In line with the
project’s concept, the game is developed on reused and repurposed
cartridges. The ROM will be available for free and can be played in your
favourite NES emulator. The source code and the tools created for the
development of the game will be published under a free culture license.
