Nightmarchers seeks crowdfunding for a postapocalyptic trip to Hawaii

The action role-playing game Nightmarchers is adding a tropical twist to the end of the world. Developer Wyrmbyte crafted a postapocalyptic version of the Hawaiian island Oahu, incorporating local mythology in protagonist Kai’s quest to reclaim the land from evil gods. The game is raising funds on Fig, with an estimated PC launch coming this summer.

Wyrmbyte portrays Oahu after an event called the “Great Thunder” wracks the island. In the aftermath, people are struggling to survive as otherworldly spirits and raiders maraud the island. An old god named Kamapua’a leads the forces of evil, and the only one who can stop him is Kai, a descendant of shamans who can wield mystical powers.
