To Ash and Ember
A downloadable game for Windows
Meet your Maker and Kill Them.
That which was Dead refuses to Die. One of the Slaughtered Gods is resurfacing; bringing with them all the terrors of the night as the world warps under their dead weight. Through hidden doorways and between flesh-strewn trees you seek the name of the one who dares haunt this world and, in fantastic ritual, rip them from out of the Veil to face you in grim combat. Wounded, mentally shattered, and bedeviled by a Godcurse you return triumphant to a city whose people have become further twisted by this game of cosmic import. But how long until your mortal body fails you? In what hour shall your will be finally broken? How many divine curses can your soul bear before it shatters? The embers of chaos still burn and another Fallen God shall surely surface -- and again you shall stand against them until either you, this world, or all the Fallen Gods are Ash and Ember.

Features
To Ash and Ember is a (currently prototype) singleplayer Dark Fantasy Event-based RPG. It plays like a board-game without needing to shuffle decks, set out a board, or read manuals. This is a game of time management and decisions, of who to save and who to sacrifice, and of a City whose windows and streets grow darker and stranger the longer your battles continue.
Currently, this game is a prototype. Donations help offset costs and time required to bring this unique vision of horror to life and your feedback helps shape this world-to-come.

I'm curious, have you played World of Horror? Because your game seems to have started development before World of Horror came out, but the two games feel extremely similar in terms of gameplay and theming
Having trouble installing the game via the itch app. Tried downloading the file manually, unzipping, and running the game from there, but the game always crashes right after displaying the "Unity" logo :(
Help?
Hm, that's certainly odd. Could you throw your game log onto pastebin so I can see what's going on there? Also are you on a laptop computer or a desktop computer?
