Emotional open world adventure Farewell North gets brand new demo for Gamescom

Indie publisher Mooneye Studios and developer Kyle Banks proudly announce that their emotional adventure game Farewell North will be playable at Gamescom this year.

Farewell North is an open world exploration adventure in which you play as a border collie on a journey with his owner through the Scottish highlands. Exploring by foot and canoe, collie Chesley is doing his best to bring color back into his owners life as a story about depression and grief is slowly unveiled and his beloved owner has a chance to heal.

Several differently themed islands can be explored at your own pace while solving some light puzzles and remembering the events of the past that led to your human falling into depression.

The game has been in development by solo developer Kyle Banks in close cooperation with his community via his Dicord server and regular dev logs on Youtube. The developer now joins the Mooneye Indies family for additional support in bringing the game to life.

“After pursuing game development as a hobby for many years, I decided to go all in and develop my first commercial game Farewell North after I had moved to Scotland in 2019 and was inspired by the beautiful landscapes. Going into the final stretch of development, I’m so happy to have Mooneye’s support and cannot wait to finally release Farewell North next year! Fingers crossed!”, says developer Kyle Banks.

When the game releases next year, you’ll be able to spend around 5-6 hours exploring, but be warned, there might be need for some tissues for some players.
