Odesa, Ukraine – June 19th, 2024. Developer Forpixie Studio and publisher Ternox Games are excited to announce Shine On, My Little Sun, a unique take on an interactive fairy tale, showcased in a debut trailer today.

 

Shine On, My Little Sun is set in a post-apocalyptic world plunged into darkness, where the last inhabited settlement, Svargo, survives by the warmth of a star captured in the town’s lighthouse. The lives of the settlers take an unexpected turn when a girl emerges from the light — seemingly lost, and poised to change the fate of Svargo forever…

Developed in Ukraine by a small indie team, Shine On, My Little Star blends eye-catching visuals with a coming-of-age narrative, inviting players to navigate branching paths, make impactful choices, and delve into the lives of its diverse set of characters. With lush character art, an original soundtrack, and a poignant storyline, Shine On, My Little Star unfolds as a tale of hope, acceptance, and resilience in the midst of adversity and change.

 

When the Sun fell, the world was shrouded in darkness. Yet the Sun’s glimmer endured at the heart of Svargo, humanity’s last settlement. The lighthouse of Svargo, once a beacon for ships now entombed in ice, stands tall with the nearly diminished Sun at its pinnacle.

 

Although not as majestic as it once was, the Sun’s gentle warmth was enough for the people of Svargo to build a haven amidst the frozen wasteland. But what happens when the Sun awakens, forsaking its celestial slumber for a few fleeting days of childhood wonder?
