PRESENTATION The Oaken Path is a 2D fantasy old-school RPG in the vein of Vagrant Hearts and the old classics. A kingdom splintered by ambition. Two brothers stand at the heart of the storm—Thorn, the rightful heir and stalwart protector of the realm, and Thalorak, a ruthless sorcerer who seeks to claim the throne by force. As war ignites across the land, villages burn, and the cries of the people grow louder beneath the shadow of the usurper’s dark magic. In this chaos, unlikely heroes emerge—wanderers, warriors, and outcasts—drawn together by fate and bound to a path none of them chose. They will fight beside Thorn in a last stand for honor and freedom. But when the winds of war shift, it falls upon them to carry the flame of resistance. Their journey will carve the future of the kingdom. FEATURES Embark on an epic tale of brotherhood, betrayal, and rebellion as you fight to reclaim a kingdom torn apart by civil war Explore a vibrant kingdom filled with war-torn villages, ancient ruins, bustling market towns, and hidden strongholds Brave treacherous dungeons, from cursed catacombs and sunken temples to mountain fortresses and abandoned battlefields Face relentless foes on the battlefield: mercenaries, war beasts, corrupted knights, and monstrous warlocks Immerse yourself in a world inspired by the golden age of JRPGs, blending lush pixel art with sweeping orchestral scores and haunting melodies
