We’re happy to announce that Kiyo is part of the Indie Game Fest event on Steam!



Explore Rabbithole City and tackle levels by sneaking, fighting and solving puzzles. Kiyo's gameplay is a combination of Thief, Splinter Cell and Oddworld, but in 2D pixel art.

Try it out for free, there's a public playtest available for the whole duration of the event.

If you like it, please wishlist it and tell your friends about it!

The new playtest is bigger and better than the previous one: we did many improvements and it contains one more level.
Sign up for free to G.Round and get your playtest key here.
You'll also be able to provide us with more feedback and suggestions to keep improving Kiyo!

We have 2 important news regarding the playtest!

Firstly, the build has just been updated. The game has had a couple of performance fixes and small adjustments to the gameplay. The biggest things can be broken into two categories:

• The first one is an option for making your own keybindings on a keyboard; we’ve received a lot of feedback on how players wanted to adapt the controls to their liking, so it was one of the biggest things that needed to be done; remapping the bindings on controllers is possible as well, but it would need to be done via the Steam Input system.
  
• Plenty of Linux-oriented stuff has been added to the respective build of the game; this means that the game should run on more distros, including the older ones.
  

Secondly, the playtest has a finishing date set and it will end on the 15th of March. We've got plenty of feedback, but we count on you to provide more. Especially considering that you like the game, which makes us extremely happy! After the playtest, we’ll take some time polishing the game up and preparing a proper demo release, which shouldn’t be far in the future. Wait for a proper announcement on this one!

Thanks for reading and for playing, have a good one!

We’re happy to announce that Kiyo is a part of the Metroidvania Fusion event on Steam!



We got chosen to represent a cool niche in a genre that’s known for putting emphasis on many different areas of gaming, such as puzzle solving, combat or exploration. Kiyo’s all about stealth and it presents a more linear approach to the story. While our game isn’t a metroidvania in its purest form, we reckon it could be considered to be one. We really hope that you’ll like the game. Trying it out is free, as it’s undergoing a playtest.

If you wanna try something a bit different, give it a shot! If you like it, feel free to wishlist it and tell your friends about it!
