UNRELEASED GAME – UNAVAILABLE

This game has officially been announced by the publisher or developer, and remains in development. Therefore, some of the game information may change in the future. Until this game is released, please do not submit images for it, nor add new releases. Press Kits are an exception.

Become K.C. Morgan, paranormal investigator, and search a New England mansion for your missing father. Battle the forces of corruption infesting the mansion armed only with your wits and an old .38 revolver, and gather scrolls of forbidden lore. But the more you discover, the more warped and twisted the world - and you - become. Uncover the story of Lore Finder, a 2D metroidvania and a modern queer reimagining of the cosmic horror genre.History

Conceived during Ludum Dare late 2017, Lore Finder hit Kickstarter in November 2018, and raised nearly twice the goal amount, and hitting the stretch goals for a simultaneous release on Windows, Mac, and Linux, and girlfriend mode. In girlfriend mode players play as K.C.'s girlfriend Pamela, and traverse the game again with a new character, new powers, and an all-new story tethered by the queer romance between Pamela and K.C.
