Eternal Twilight Now Available at Rampant Games
Eternal Twilight is an RPGMaker-created title from newcomer Oliveair Games (and, specifically, game maker James Fox). Boasting approximately twenty hours of gameplay, eight playable characters (plus two "bonus" playable characters hidden in the game), and a storyline about the redemption of a formerly-heartless mercenary - and of course, an evil power threatening the entire world - it is now available at the Rampant Games Store.

If offers a free hour of play, so you can check it out and see if it is to your liking.

I haven't played too far into this one yet, myself (opinions, anyone?) But one thing that was pretty different from the get-go was playing a pretty evil character. Your first mission is to eliminate a disgraced army general - the punishment for his failure. Your target doesn't seem to be the picture of innocence himself, and you do give him a fair fight to defend himself. Even so, you are a guy who kills for cash. It is not (for me) a comfortable role to play.

Fortunately, the game lets you off the hook early on. Something snaps in your second mission. Something weird has happened, and Torch has an attack of conscience and feelings that he'd never experienced before. And he's finding himself defending a girl who, only moments ago, he was about to kidnap. And squaring off against a world-spanning evil organization that will now hunt him relentlessly for his betrayal.

Sucks to suddenly grow a soul like that, doesn't it? Hopefully the rest of the story will not disappoint after setting up a little mystery with a bad-guy-turned-good-guy arc.

Anyway - you can download it here and check it out for yourself here:
