Lost Wish: In the desperate world is a 2D side-scrolling metroidvania platformer. Go on a journey with a young girl, overcome all obstacles on her path and uncover secrets of this dark world!

Kana may look like a pure and innocent girl, but don't be fooled by her appearance. She is led by the desire of revenge. Even if she has recovered from her past, she still wants to follow her way. Kana asks Alice to help her to find somebody, who betrayed her in past. But will she stop after that? How the poor girl will affect this cruel world? Will she ever find her lost wish?


Most of the story concepts of this game are connected to characters, their feelings and desires. Kana is a girl who was stabbed in the back a lot of times, Alice is a girl, who is too kind for this cruel world, Do... Oh no, it would be a spoiler :)

After 3 years of development, the game is finally on Steam! I am really happy to launch my first game. The original idea was to make a visual novel (lol), but in the process the story became shorter and it even changed the whole genre! I really like platformers like this one, so I tried to make a game that fits my likings the best. Hope you'll like it!
