Press release

Beloved Rapture is coming to Steam on Oct 7th, 2024

Beloved Rapture is an indie jRPG inspired by the classics. Explore beautiful landscapes, fight in turn-based battles, and uncover many secrets. This mid-length adventure balances both an intimate coming of age story, and larger threats looming over the troubled kingdom.


This project has been in development from solo developer Aaron Crawford for over a decade, contracting part time help after a successful Kickstarter in 2019, before signing with a publisher (2 Left Thumbs) in 2022. The final core team of two are together known as 'Rapturous Studios'.
