Press release:
Febrauary 24th, 2022.
The Germany-based indie games publisher Application Systems Heidelberg and Belgium-based indie games developer like Charlie game studio, today announced with great excitement and delight that story and relationship exploration/adventure game “Ghost on the Shore” is now available for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Humble Bundle store.

About the game
Ghost on the Shore is a story and relationship exploration game about emotional ties that transcend even death.

You play as Riley, a young woman who finds herself stranded on a desolate island with a headstrong ghost, dead for as long as he can remember. As you explore the crumbling homes of the gone islanders and discover the remnants, you get to know the ghost Josh.

Making irrevocable choices in dialogue you shape the bond with him, which ultimately influences the outcome of the game. As Riley puts it all together, she comes to understand how an island’s history led to Josh’ death.

Features:
– Relationship exploration
– Environmental storytelling
– Emotional choices with consequences
– Branching narrative with multiple endings

Relationship exploration is a unique feature that allows the player to make choices in a subtle immersive way. Often all one has, is the power of words. And it is your choice to reach out or to alienate. Like in real life, you don’t always know how your words will affect the other. Or what future they hold.
