A downloadable game

It's your first day on the job that will be the rest of you existence as an angel of God. You were made for this, this is your purpose. Together with your colleagues you will cleanse this world of the remaining of the impure. Keep them by your side, their company will be invaluable to you.

Sonder is a mix of two genres, a dungeon crawler and a dating simulator, though not in the classical sense. You don't make choices by clicking on dialogue options, like in a regular dating sim. Instead, you progress through the game by completing missions, in the form of dungeons, and your playstyle will be analysed. This will have an effect on the affection of the three available companions. I try to subvert player's expectations and made the game a metaphor or allegory to work, where you attain experience working together with colleagues and using tools.  You are an angel in service of god. The goal is that you are effecient enough at your job by day 6, so you don't get fired on day 7 and sent to hell...
