Description

Imagine you are the sole survivor of an explosion that kills hundreds of thousands of people. Such is the fate of Sofya Rykov, the protagonist of Echoes of the Fey - Episode 0: The Immolation. Sofya wants nothing to do with the conflict between the Humans and the Leshin. But the final horror of the war thrusts both responsibility and power upon her, changing her life forever.

History

Episode 0 is a free prologue to the Echoes of the Fey series on Steam. Developed in Unreal Engine 4, it blends 2D and 3D in a unique style not normally seen in visual novels. The creators are educated screenwriters who prioritize compelling storytelling above all else. It releases on Steam February 7, 2017.

Woodsy Studio sprouted from the minds of two married screenwriters who moved out of Hollywood in 2008. Malcolm Pierce worked as a lawyer and Jenny Gibbons published novels before they decided to combine their powers and make video games. They continue to expand the limits of a "visual novel" by trying different engines for their games, from Ren'Py, to GameMaker, to Unreal Engine 4. As of 2017, both Malcolm and Jenny work full time at Woodsy Studio and hope to make it a life-long career.
