I know I'm supposed to pitch the game here, but I ain't doing that yet.

I'm here to tell you that I'm not super "professional." There will be jokes, but I treat the universe seriously. So I hope you enjoy the world and the read.

If you don't like reading, you're gonna have a bad time, and I personally don't know when to shut up.

These aren’t quick dopamine hits.

They’re slow burns,  games that respect your time, but expect your patience.

They don’t hold your hand, and they sure as hell don’t chase your attention span.

If that scares you, that’s fine. Go scroll TikTok.

If you want AAA "quality", "standards", and "professionalism"? The gutter is over there.

Watch your step.

anyways.

Here is a super ... SUPER summarized lore blerb.

First and foremost, Ardron is a universe.
In any of these games, you’ll be playing in that universe (duh).

The quickest way I can explain the lore goes like this:

---

At first, there was nothing... and then there was something. (Real original, huh?)

The specifics are muddy.
Six individuals coasted across the nothing(the void) until they encountered a figure of unimaginable power.
This figure, (bored, I guess,) decided to give each of them a color, each representing a piece of the six types of Mana it possessed. This removed the figure from existence living through the 6 creatures themselves.

The six individuals became gods, not as powerful as the figure, but still, gods.

With this power, they created their own universes, all interconnected, and started crafting creatures and places in their universes.

One thing led to another. (God, that's lazy writing)

There became a conflict which ended up lasting for 10,000 years... 

in the end all there was left was ashes... of mana. 

OR ARCANUM AS SOME MIGHT SA- yeah you see where that's going.

Even is The Ardron Universe? And Why Should You Care?

Basically, it’s Final Fantasy written by Tolkien right after he found out Cthulhu actually exists.... that's the best way i can summarize it.

Because Ardron doesn't treat you like a chosen hero, or an idiot.
It treats you like a person with respect, and still dares you to carve out meaning anyway.

If you want a power fantasy? This isn't it. 

There’s no clear good or evil,
only choices, and the weight they carry.
Every action has context. Every consequence lingers. Every benefit prospers.

In Ardron,  just because you’re the hero in one story, doesn't mean you aren't the villain in another.
But you still have the right to celebrate.

Because survival...your survival, is still something worth honoring, and that's all were trying to do.... Is survive.

In real life... Or in Ardron. 

In these games you will live through stories, or experience someone else's, and sooner or later... You'll understand. 

All I'm giving you is a key. It's up to you to walk through the door.

See the DLC pages for more in depth Information

Speaking of ^ this line. 
The DLC will all be FREE. and automatically included with the game.
They literally only have pages so I can go into more depth per game :) (there MIGHT be spoilers)

[Ashes Of Arcanum] - EImon

You remember Ashes of Arcanum? Yeah me too. It's a V-TTRPG.

[Daemon Protocol] - Icolass

A Discord MInigame MMO type deal. Fight creatures. boost other people. good times

[Arcane Titans] - Void

A PVP Card game that started my game dev journey.

[Graces Lament] -Yumalon

[Ashbound] - Grimlowe

A classic style top down RPG. Which leads you through a tragic story you wont care about :D

[Echos of Aria] - Sostrum

A music rhythm game that will make you hate yourself - comes with a story too!

[Project Elusia] - Elusia

I have many games...none of them fits with Elusias theme. therefore. It is up in the air..for now

So. That’s the gist of it.
Wishlist if you want to keep up with things.

When you buy this game, it’s yours.
Not a subscription. Not a license you’re renting.
You paid for it,  you keep it. Period.

There’s no DRM here.
You can copy it, back it up, install it offline, it’ll still run.
Steam is optional. It’s just a convenience layer.
You’ll lose things like achievements, cloud saves, and Steam servers, but everything else still works, including P2P multiplayer. Long as you know how to port forward, you don't need Steam at all.

The only thing you can’t do is claim you made it.
Everything else? mod it, play it, don't play it and keep it as one of those 500 games you'll "get too eventually"?

Sure, go wild.

Want to turn off Steam’s DRM entirely?
There will be an included read me telling you how to do so in the PLAYERFILES folder.
