An RPG with emotional heart

A story about finding courage, this brand-new Steam download is an RPG that oozes nostalgia and better yet, it is completely free to try right now.

Developed by AppleSeeds Studio and added to Steam earlier this week, Alpha Canis Major is an indie adventure RPG which explores the story of a girl named Ming.

In Alpha Canis Major, players will need to find courage as they play and control the adventure of two elves who are tasked with exploring the inner world of Ming who suffers from depression.

The more items you discover, the more courage Ming will feel and eventually, her story will unfold before your very eyes.

In this free demo, players will be able to experience the entire first chapter of Alpha Canis Major, including full story content and core gameplay which will take around two hours to complete.

In a world where dreams and reality intertwine, it will be up to you to uncover hidden paths and piece together the truth about Ming’s real-life struggles.

Although the finished game will feature combat and other features, the demo will not but instead serves to give you the taste of the story ahead of full release.

Alpha Canis Major features stunning pixel art and stylised graffiti to give it a nostalgic feel and with countless maps and hidden corners to discover, every step forward will bring you closer to Ming’s heart.

In a world where mental health issues are a daily struggle for many people, games like this allow us to experience what it may feel like for those affected.

On top of that, this RPG experience will offer tons to explore and plenty of characters to meet such as Luna, Ming, Solar, J, Rainnie, and Lin with more characters in development.

Not only that but the collectors amongst you will enjoy Alpha Canis Major as there are 30+ doodles to collect in-game as well as chat logs, blogs, and interactive items to help carry the story along.

The release date for Alpha Canis Major has not yet been revealed but as mentioned, you can dive into its demo right now courtesy of Steam.
