​
Twenty years ago, an evil force driven by Feli’Seth, a feline-like wizard, wreaked havoc in the Kingdom of Earlyne, defenseless against such a foe. Thankfully, the valiant Knight Harayi managed to fend him off using his strength and the power of three legendary fairies, usually scattered all across the land, and sealed him away from this realm. As the Kingdom got rebuilt under the reign of King Edgar II, with Queen Nandu and their newly-born son Prince Philip at his side, Knight Harayi went on a lonely and peaceful retirement in his isolated Lair.

One bright morning, a young knight was called by the King to go on a mission of the utmost importance: find and bring Knight Harayi back to the Earlyne Castle as numerous signs were hinting at a return of the evil Feli’Seth. This youngster is Knight George, a childhood friend and lover of Prince Philip, and is about to go on the adventure of a lifetime.

And YOU will guide him through it!


Knight George is an Action-RPG game on Windows (with a future wish for the game to be ported on modern consoles) in which you play as the titular character in the Kingdom of Earlyne, wielding your trusty sword and many objects to ultimately save the day. It is made as a tribute to the Nintendo Game Boy, with several 4-color palettes and a limited amount of buttons (with some degrees of customization to add more of them as quality of life features!)

This ARC'INDIE 2024 Demo version contains one of the game's dungeons, the Matava Temple! It also features a training room where you can learn how to use the three items already in your possession: the Sword, the Shield and the Catacable.

The full game is scheduled for release in 2026, with 10 main dungeons to go through, around 20 items to discover such as the Amulet of Life to control several animals in Earlyne, and many characters and locations to explore!
