About this game

Enter the world of Rising Dusk. A land permanently in the hours of twilight and inhabited by an assortment of ghouls. The only way out may be to avoid every coin.

As the day shines the last of its golden light over the land an eerie realm begins to form in the shadows. This spectral world is home to the Yokai. An assortment of ghosts, ghouls and demons that rise in the dusk and play through the night.
When a young girl, Tamako, spots one of these yokai she finds herself trapped in their world. If she can navigate this perilous land, the key to returning home may lie on the strange new mountain on the horizon.

  • Hidden Items, Secret Exits and more. This game is bursting with secrets and easter eggs.
  • Releasing for PC & MAC in 2018.

    Rising Dusk v1.0.1

    UPDATE: Appears there was a problem with the Controller set-up menu so I've reuploaded the patch. Hello everyone! Just a small post-launch patch to address a few small issues and add minor improvements. Here's a list of what's been updated in this patch. - Holding Up or Down whilst Jumping no longer affects player momentum. - Onibaba no longer gives redundant hints, has additional hints. - Slight change to method of getting Maneki Neko in Onibaba's Cave. - Fixed a bug that left Total Maneki Nekos at 59 in rare cases. - Hitting ESC/ENTER on OPTION SCREEN returns you to MAIN MENU - Minor difficulty adjustments to boss areas. - Fixed appearance conditions of collectable in Giri Giri Pass. Please post in the discussion if you run into any bugs or strange occurrences in the game. However I'm unable to solve any Yokai related occurrences. Happy non-collecting everyone, Stobie
