New Towards The Pantheon 2D RPG Gets Trailer, Steam Page

Towards The Pantheon is a 2D top down role playing game by lead developer Connor O.R.T. Linning and pixel artist Leandro Tokarevski that follows four unlikely heroes as they venture through dangerous worlds and suffer great hardships in order to defeat the source of The Sworn Light at The Pantheon.

Gone are the RPG clichés of potions, wars between elemental gods, and plots about youngsters who accidentally stumble upon a magic power that allows them to save the world. Instead Towards The Pantheon is a unique and unusual game starring Freyja the warrior, Bam the cat, Mishima the electropunk, and Phenez the ghost on their simultaneously lighthearted, fun, dark, and painful journey.

Towards The Pantheon will have you speeding through dark caves in minecarts, shopping with Famallamas, riding Speedsters, hacking computers, listening in on conversations around the campfire, and much more! While drawing inspiration from a variety of classics from the RPG, Adventure, and Survival Horror genres, Towards The Pantheon is an ambitious game that is unafraid of breaking conventions in order to offer a unique and refreshing experience.

John Breeden II

As a journalist John has covered everything from rural town meetings to the U.S. Congress and even done time as a crime reporter and photographer.|His first venture into writing about the game industry came in the form of a computer column called "On the Chip Side," which grew to have over 1 million circulation and was published in newspapers in several states. From there he did several "ask the computer guy" columns in magazines such as Up Front! in New Mexico and Who Cares? in Washington D.C. When the Internet started to become popular, he began writing guided Web tours for the newly launched Washington Post online section as well as reviews for the weekend section of the paper, something he still does from time to time. His experience in trade publications came as a writer and reviewer for Government Computer News. As the editor of GiN, he demands strict editorial standards from all the writers and reviewers. Breeden feels the industry needs a weekly, reliable trade publication covering the games industry and works tirelessly to accomplish that goal.
