Cuba’s first indie game is a dark fantasy adventure that finally sees the light of day after a long and difficult development process.
Publisher Dear Villagers and Cuban indie game developer, Empty Head Games are excited to announce that their dark fantasy game, Saviorless, is out now on PC, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5.
Boasting beautiful hand-drawn artwork, the world of Saviorless invites players to unravel the mystery of the Smiling Islands while fighting nightmarish monsters and solving puzzles. Following the journey of Antar, The Savior, and Nento, players will piece together a broken narrative through a unique storytelling approach while exploring the atmospheric world of Saviorless.
Saviorless achieved a significant milestone as Cuba’s first-ever independent video game to collaborate with an international publisher, gaining global visibility across consoles and online platforms. Despite initial success and support, the team faced setbacks due to political tensions, budget constraints, game name trademark conflict, and the loss of a key member. However, with the help of a publisher and the dedication of the team, they persevered through technical difficulties and delays to release a visually stunning game that exceeded their expectations.
