Ok, Introcomp entry is done. Won’t lie, the temptation to rush this game for the Spring Thing was huge, but maybe waiting another month was for the best. I already have one bronze medal from Introcomp anyway…
Anyway, while this thing is content-complete, I’ll probably be adding some extra updates here and there over time, depending on my schedule. Meanwhile, I’ll need to write to Feneric to tell him that I’m done. Maybe I’ll participate in Introcomp again this year if I have another crazy idea.
Dragon of Steelthorne: War Sky
he Alenian Empire has built steam-powered planes, allowing people to take to the skies. Meanwhile, a succession crisis brews in the Empire’s leadership as three members of the Royal Family fight for the throne.
But where do you stand in all this? As a young noble from the legendary Steelthorne House, you are given control of a large Skyport near Lake Steelthorne, placing you at the forefront of the Alenian technological revolution. Adventure awaits as you take to the skies in your own state-of-the-art biplane.
Dragon of Steelthorne: War Sky is a 180,000 word interactive story in a steampunk-fantasy world. The 3rd place winner of Introcomp 2025, now complete, and a standalone sequel to Hosted Games’s original Dragon of Steelthorne, playable on Hosted Games or for free on the Spring Thing. Of course, i’d be happy to expand this even further if there is interest.
Work together with a new cast of companions. A confident and sassy noblewoman, an Alenian Prince learning the ropes, a diplomat and princess from Jhou lands and a flight engineer from the city of Freehold. Find love and excitement as you take them on new misadventures.
Support one of the three candidates, gain the blessing of the Dragon Gem, possibly gain the throne, and decide the course of the Empire’s future.
