About oath

Don't break your oath.

You arrive at a town you've lived in once before, years ago, to a familiar face that you spent so long trying to forget. You feel something pulling at you from inside, but you can't quite grasp onto it...Step into the shoes of the person you once were as you make your way though the story of oath, the companion piece to vai5000's 2024 EP. 

Features:

  • The story of oath:Play a short interactive story mode, that switches between top-down RPG like explorable areas, and visual novel-style story elements. Progress through six small acts as you live your new life in this town, experiencing the mainly linear narrative.
  • Hand-drawn art and animation:The main story of oath includes hand drawn animation, art and graphical work by vai5000, in a unique art style that ties the world of oath together

  • EP Player and art gallery:Accessible from the main menu, a built-in music player lets you listen to the EP in which oath is a companion to at any time. By completing each act of the story, you can also unlock images in the art gallery for all the EP track cover arts and more.
  • Extensive Epilogue and bonus content:Once you complete the main story, replaying the story mode will give you access to the Epilogue, a multi-hour section where you can explore the world of oath in a top-down format. 
  • Visit every building, interact with everything you see:The three massive towns of the City, Coast and Underwater Depths have numerous buildings all of which you can explore, with every item you see interactable and characters to find and talk to. Sing karaoke, collect seashells, go fishing, ... buy a house? Explore the vast world completing quests and learn more about yourself in the process.

Plus a lot more!

Explore the environments of oath and discover all your past has to offer - with plenty of secrets, unique interactions and a rich world, try unlock all of the achievements to fully experience what oath has in store for you.

Bonus!

Assessable with passcodes at a point in-game, visit over 90+ unique rooms for other music scene artists, with a select few tracks from their discography able to be listened to in game! Finding a subset of the available rooms grants an achievement, but is not compulsory for completing the game. Getting the achievement lets you listen to more scene artist music in other areas of the game.

I've been a fan of vai5000's music for a while, but Oath found me at a strangely important point in my life. I am dealing with my own emotional fallout right now, and its focus on trauma, loss, regret, and all of those lingering "what if" thoughts hit much closer to home than I expected. It does not give you any clean answers, but it gave me a space to sit with some feelings I have been trying to sort through. Maybe this is just a phase in my own life, but Oath arrived at exactly the right time and felt less like something I was simply playing and more like something I genuinely needed. The game itself is a super simple RPG maker game, but that works in its favor. The minimal visuals, little references to other games and music, and excellent soundtrack all support the emotional core without getting in its way. If you are already a fan of vai5000, it is absolutely worth playing for the price, but I think it also has something meaningful to offer anyone carrying around their own loss, unanswered questions, or difficult feelings.
