Pitch

Long after the drought of esborium, a mineral with many use cases, the Esbor valley has lost a bit of its prime. Amina, the last train driver around, has been thinking about leaving the valley lately. Maybe listening to what her passengers say will influence her on finally making her mind.

'Round the Valley is a narrative-focused train driving game. Drive the train through the valley and listen to your passengers' stories.

Controls

'Round the Valley was built with an alternative controller in mind. Theoretically, you could build your own with an Arduino, an IR sensor, 4 buttons, and our code. But the easier solution for everyone is to plug any regular controller/keyboard in, or to use a Steam Deck.
