Short: Snarky and light-hearted adventures, fast paced combat and endless loot in an ancient industro-fantasy world.

​

Detailed: A snarky, light-hearted story uncovering the secrets of Vala and its mysterious satellite that will take about 5 hours to complete but play can continue indefinitely. Set in a fully realised industro-fantasy world. Flexible character creation and vast customisation options. Hard-but-fair fast paced 1D combat borrowing heavily from Dark Souls 1. Endless procedurally generated loot and mini-stories. A complete offline experience, no IAP or ads. We have published a sizable free demo and a separate purchasable version of the full game will be available some time during winter 24/25.

​

Elevator Pitch: Snarky and light-hearted story in a fully fleshed out industro-fantasy world. Offline action role-playing with endless procedurally generated loot and missions. Fast, difficult but fair combat.

The story so far...

Hi, I'm Slav, but you probably know me as Mr.Slate.
I'm Bulgarian and moved to the UK in 2009 to start a "Computer Science with Games Development" degree.
I've been tinkering with games since I was 10 so by 2009 I'd taught myself programming and a bunch of other game development skills.

I finished university with a Masters degree and was immediately faced with the reality of the games industry.

​

My first few jobs had nothing to do with games, in fact I didn't begin working in the industry until 2 years later.
But I pushed hard to get into the games industry and finally I got my break.
It wasn't exactly smooth sailing from then on but I managed to keep going.

​

Many years later, in 2022, I thought (wrongly) I had enough savings and decided to begin full time work on a prototype I'd been tinkering with for about 2 years.

This is when I quit my job, started Slate Games and started work on what became MoonWard.
Developing MoonWard while running the company has been very difficult but extremely fulfilling.
I've worked with some great people and learned so much.
Last year Baby Slate was born and it's been even more challenging but I kept pushing myself even harder.

​

Now that I'm on the finishing line I have to say I still enjoy making MoonWard immensely and hope that you'll enjoy playing it as much!
