A 2D pixel art action RPG where four parallel worlds share the same fate. Explore dungeons, face enemies in real time, and discover how to return home before all realities collapse.
Parallel Ways
SteamParallel Ways is a 2D Pixel Art Action RPG developed in RPG Maker, blending fantasy, parallel worlds, and exploration in the spirit of classic 16-bit adventures.
Eduardo was just an ordinary teenager from São Paulo trying to defeat an impossible boss in his video game… until he wakes up inside a 2D world, holding a rusty sword in his hand, and realizes he is now part of the game itself.
To return home, he must journey across a multiverse made up of four parallel worlds, each with its own story, conflicts, and visual identity. What connects these realities is a looming threat powerful enough to destroy them all.
Four Worlds, One Geography
Explore four different versions of the same land, each featuring unique settings and micro-narratives:
• An archipelago divided by war and ancient forces
• A mysterious dimension that connects all realities
• A kingdom consumed by the melancholy of its ruler
• A land scarred by civil conflict and instability
Each world offers its own atmosphere, distinctive pixel art style, and events that directly impact the balance of the multiverse.
Classic Action RPG Exploration
Inspired by titles like The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Parallel Ways delivers:
• Real-time combat (Action RPG)
• Dungeon and temple exploration
• Item- and relic-based progression that unlocks new areas
• A single-player experience focused on adventure and discovery
• Meta-narrative elements and fourth-wall breaks
Your journey will challenge you to defeat enemies, claim powerful relics, and ultimately decide the fate of intertwined realities.
Between power and balance, the destiny of the multiverse will be in your hands.
