Joth Fading

After ten years of deep meditation, Rishi awakens to a blasted planet. His only clue? A blinding pillar of light piercing the sun - a harbinger of cosmic destruction. Food, water, and even air are running out. The gods have been chained - some by demons, and others by their own indecision. Humanity is dying. Rishi must save his species, but it will all be for naught if he does not stop the "Jyothir Linga", an ever-expanding pillar of light that will consume earth and eventually, the entire universe. Rescue the gods. Restore the world. Reach the sun, and save existence. Joth Fading is a souls-like, single-player, story-based, fantasy RPG that blends mythologies from around the world. Journey through two collapsing continents to the rescue gods. Uncover the secrets of the present and the mysteries of Rishi's past, that have been locked away by some unknown force.
