Fatherhood, 2.5D Anti-War Adventure Coming Soon to Kickstarter

Fatherhood is a low-poly 2.5D adventure where players take on the role of a father, an ordinary civilian, who alone tries to protect his blind daughter from the horrors of war. This independent project is inspired by a short video, which went viral several years ago, showing a father and daughter camouflaging the sound of bombs with laughter during the conflict in Syria. The reference works, however, are This War of Mine, Inside, and The Last of Us.

In the game, we will have to navigate a collapsing city while comforting the child, acting stealthily, and making choices that will lead to one of multiple endings. The Kickstarter campaign to fund the game will begin shortly; in the meantime, the pre-launch page is available. Fatherhood does not yet have a release date or target platforms, but we know it will debut at least on Steam. Here is the first trailer, published in May 2024.
