Hi! We're working on a 2D hand-drawn ARPG called Rabbit Chronicle! Here's our new page — check it out!

https://hotogamestudio.itch.io/rabbitcho

We are a small indie game development team based in Chengdu, China, currently made up of five passionate members.

As you can probably tell, this is a game where ayou get to control a super-powered little bunny who can conquer both land and sky! 🐰💥 



We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this game, and as of now, we’ve officially hit the two-year mark in development.
We’ve designed a ton of action moves for our little bunny (all hand-drawn frame-by-frame, of course!) and created a variety of gameplay systems, explorable areas, and rewards for players to discover.


And of course, we couldn’t forget about the epic bosses and powerful enemies (our dark circles are getting pretty serious these days too 😅).

As of now, we’ve pretty much finished the core systems in the game and are now focusing on fine-tuning the experience.
The UI has gone through its first major iteration, and in terms of quests, storyline, and content, we’ve completed the prologue and about a third of Chapter 1.


At the moment, our biggest challenges are polishing the narrative and adding multi-language support, as well as adapting the controller inputs (especially UI and combat interface — it’s more complex than we initially thought!).

But once we get all that sorted out... (hopefully not too long from now! 😆)
We’re planning to release a free demo that includes the prologue, Chapter 1, and maybe even a part of Chapter 2 (fingers crossed!).

The demo will offer around 4 hours of gameplay, giving you a good taste of the game and a complete experience of what we’re working on.

Meanwhile, our GAME PAGE  is now available on Steam. If you enjoy it, please add it to your wishlist on the Steam store page—it would be a huge help to us!

The art style of this game is truly remarkable! The cozy 2D cartoon aesthetic is both nostalgic and refreshing. The vibrant colors and lively character designs create a harmonious visual experience. Every frame is like a carefully drawn illustration, making the gameplay footage particularly appealing. I've already added it to my Steam wishlist and I can't wait to explore this lovely game world.
