About Simple Story - Alex

✦ AI summary

Experience a mysterious journey as Alex, an ordinary dreamer, gets unexpectedly transported to a strange temple and must uncover the truth about his surreal predicament. This short, story-driven adventure ditches combat and leveling to focus on an intricate narrative filled with environmental puzzle-solving and hidden secrets that only reveal their meaning by the game's twist ending.

Hello, my friends! This is my first game. Why I make it on RPG Maker? Because I`m not a programmer, neither an artist, so in my humble opinion this game constructor is ideal for the first game. It's not necessary to make an epic RPG, then you can make a simple story about an ordinary people.

"Simple Story - Alex" - as you can guess by its name, it is a simple story about Alex the ordinary alcoholic. He lives a boring life, but dreaming to be a hero in a different world and dimension. One day, when he was leaving his house, Alex get teleported in a mystery temple. Is he sleeping? Or did his dreams come true? Or maybe something completely different occurred? You should find an answer.

Game features:



• Short game length. You can complete the game in under half an hour, because in my opinion there is no reason to make such a story longer. You have a spare hour? Then you can enjoy it with this game.

• Complicated story. During the game you wouldn't understand what's really going on, until the very end of the game.

• The story is partially based on real events. Alex appearance and larger half of the story, based on my life.

• Easter eggs. If you will look carefully, you should find few easter eggs, In this game.

• There is no battle in this game, neither leveling, nor other attributes of ordinary jRPG. It is a linear story, carefully written by author.

•Standard art. I decided to use only standart art, and try to focus on story, instead on graphic.

• Possibility to use all surrounding items. Actually It is not only a possibility, but a necessary steps, to fully understand game story.

Simple Story - Alex is a small-scale narrative adventure that places storytelling above everything else. Developed and published by KuKo, the game follows Alex, a man whose life has been consumed by disappointment and alcoholism. His routine existence is suddenly disrupted when he awakens in a mysterious temple, setting the stage for a journey that explores personal struggles, self-discovery, and the blurred boundary between reality and imagination. Rather than relying on traditional gameplay systems, the experience is built around uncovering the meaning behind Alex’s strange circumstances. What immediately stands out is the game’s commitment to a focused and intimate narrative. The story revolves around an ordinary individual who dreams of becoming something greater than the person he has become. This contrast between aspiration and reality gives the protagonist a relatable foundation, even within the game’s more surreal moments. As players progress, questions surrounding Alex’s condition, the strange world he finds himself in, and the significance of the events unfolding around him become the primary motivation to continue. The mystery is carefully preserved until the closing mo…
