About this game
You just moved to HEDGEHOG HILLS, a small village full of ADORABLE CUTE ANIMAL CHARACTERS! You get your own HOUSE, and can visit the many places in this PEACEFUL area!
There you meet STORM THE SWAN, a ZANY and WACKY character who is always SCARED of something. STORM says there's a MONSTER in the WOODS, but surely, they're only imagining things!
Enjoy this CUTE and EDUCATIONAL 8-bit adventure on your own portable 'Data Kid Entertainment System' available in select toy stores in the California area!
STORM THE SWAN is an 8-bit style Point 'n' Click / Visual Novel Retro-Horror heavily inspired by the era of the Gameboy and children's cartoons of the 80s and 90s. You're a player for the newest children's game for a portable gaming system, but something is happening with the game (as well as the world around you) that is getting increasingly strange and scary.
Meet and befriend several cute animal characters in HEDGEHOG HILLS, live and CUSTOMIZE your HOUSE, UNCOVER deep secrets in the game and witness the collapse of your own world.
Storm the Swan is another addition to the "Data Time Software series", or "Date Time Universe".

Storm the Swan - Version 1.5ca - Engine Updates - Autosave fixes
Thanks to everyone who has helped support 'Storm the Swan'. The project is part of a long line of shorter games that I've been making for the last few years, especially in the horror genre. I've learned so much every time I make a new one, and I hope you all stick around for new projects. I've recently announced a collection of Horror Games I've made coming out real soon. And, of course, my larger project, 'Date Time', a retro-horror game celebrating the era of early computing. I'll be updating this game periodically, and with that, here are the patch notes for 1.5ca: The game automatically saves for each official chapter you play. When the game saves, a cute animated diskette shows up in the corner. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45260050/180ea5d2f979b5c5fa98aae41e45e6233b0d5182.jpg Removed Engine Intro. UI Updated to match the aesthetic better If any of you are bumping into any trouble in this update, feel free to send me a message through this link: https://cattrigger.com/links/ Thanks again, everyone! ~CatTriggerRead full article on Community Announcements (Bathtub Chicken)Patch NotesOfficial
