Don't break your oath . You arrive at a town you've lived in once before, years ago, to a familiar face that you spent so long trying to forget. You feel something pulling at you from inside, but you can't quite grasp onto it... Step into the shoes of the person you once were as you make your way though the story of oath , the companion piece to vai5000's 2024 EP.  Features: The story of oath : Play a short interactive story mode, that switches between top-down RPG like explorable areas, and visual novel-style story elements. Progress through six small acts as you live your new life in this town, experiencing the mainly linear narrative. Hand-drawn art and animation: The main story of oath  includes hand drawn animation, art and graphical work by vai5000, in a unique art style that ties the world of oath  together EP Player and art gallery: Accessible from the main menu, a built-in music player lets you listen to the EP in which oath  is a companion to at any time. By completing each act of the story, you can also unlock images in the art gallery for all the EP track cover arts and more. Extensive Epilogue and bonus content: Once you complete the main story, replaying the story mode will give you access to the Epilogue, a multi-hour section where you can explore the world of oath  in a top-down format.  Visit every building, interact with everything you see: The three massive towns of the City, Coast and Underwater Depths have numerous buildings all of which you can explore, with every item you see interactable and characters to find and talk to. Sing karaoke, collect seashells, go fishing, ... buy a house? Explore the vast world completing quests and learn more about yourself in the process. Plus a lot more! Explore the environments of oath  and discover all your past has to offer - with plenty of secrets, unique interactions and a rich world, try unlock all of the achievements to fully experience what oath  has in store for you. Bonus! Assessable with passcodes at a point in-game, visit over 90+ unique rooms for other music scene artists, with a select few tracks from their discography able to be listened to in game!  Finding a subset of the available rooms grants an achievement, but is not compulsory for completing the game. Getting the achievement lets you listen to more scene artist music in other areas of the game.
