Island Off Outer Darkness is a narrative video game, within which you assume the role of the Postman, a resident Postal Worker on the island of Rekkieg, a small fishing village in Antarctic waters off the coast of Outer Darkness. Your start the game new to the job, and must deliver packages to residents as the weeks progress. As you keep up with the day-to-day lives of the local townsfolk, you can also garden crops and fish the local wildlife. You can uncover much about Rekkieg and its people, as well as the aberrance that ties them together. And them, to Outer Darkness.

The initial concept for Island Off Outer Darkness began in February 2024, though actual full-scale production and development did not begin until June 2024. It is heavily inspired by NieR Reincarnation, the Southern Reach trilogy, and Morrowind. I've worn those inspirations on my sleeve, and I know they reflect in the work. I also know that the target audience is critically small, but I hope that you pick it up when it launches.
