Kejora

This game is beautiful, first off. The hand-drawn art style from the characters to the landscape shows such a love and care for the story. The team behind it, Berangin Creative, are primarily 2D artists, so it’s always unique to see that dimension used in games. I can’t help but get Studio Ghibli vibes, but its connection to Indonesia looks like it’ll be such a unique game to play.
