The celestial conjunction is nigh.

Assemble your cult and seek out mystical artifacts to summon forth the elder gods, but be wary: the Watch is ever vigilant.

Oh, i like the style for this type of game. This also gives me some inspiration for a game idea :) Not really sure how the wolves got me, maybe I am missing an element there, tho.

If you are interested in making a game world, I am working on a pixel level editor and offering pay what you want licenses to itch devs. Any contribution helps me get closer to food and stability. Above all that, I appreciate the game you made, it was fun <3
