About This Game

Eldoral is an epic dark fantasy side-scoller RPG of epic 2d battles, political intrigue, fractured memories, and the heavy price of survival. Set in a war-torn world where alliances are as fragile as glass, you must navigate a treacherous web of royal conspiracies, invading armies, and ancient curses. Available on PC in 2026 immerse yourself in a sprawling, morally dynamic narrative where the line between a righteous leader and a ruthless tyrant is easily crossed.

The Story

You play as Dagda, a sarcastic, pragmatic human mercenary stripped of his memories and stranded far from home. An unexpected invitation to the Elven Kingdom of Eldoral offers a glimmer of hope: a chance to break your curse and finally uncover who you truly are. But peace in Eldoral is an illusion. A sudden, devastating ambush plunges the kingdom into chaos, forcing Dagda to go on the run alongside Mio, a naive but immensely powerful elven priestess. Thrust into the center of a deadly political upheaval, the two must rely on each other to survive. As you battle through undead-infested dungeons, forge uneasy alliances with underground factions, and orchestrate daring heists in floating palaces, both heroes will be pushed to their breaking points. Dagda must unearth the horrifying truth behind his missing past, while Mio must confront a grim reality: saving her people might require her to become the very monster she fears.

Work

Eldoral started out in 2023. Francis Nicholls created a 2D-Sidescroller Game Engine Template with Unity and Roman Gfeller had a story he wanted to bring to life. In the past this duo had worked on similar game projects like a 2D Rpg made with Unity called "Son Of God" as well as a visual novel called "Trial Of a G".

After gathering content and story ideas Francis Nicholls started out with developing the basic game mechanics. He took the movement and camera system from the "Ninja" Template and created the first prototype. This included the first use of a 2D sprite system and using 2D level background in a side scroller / point and click style inspired by oldschool games like "Monkey Island".

Around 2024 the game engine had evolved to a fully functioning first demo which was hosted on francisnicholls.ch. After some feedback from Pascal Koch we refined the dialog and story telling systems. Item pickups, the fight system as well as player interactions, cutscenes and the sound system was implemented. During this stage we primaly worked on the story to fully flesh out the main concept and keep a stuctered plan on how to proceed.
