During the recent MIX Fall Showcase, independent developers Ground Game Atelier unveiled the third gameplay trailer for their upcoming adventure RPG, The Time I Have Left. Alongside the trailer, the team announced the launch of a new demo on Steam and a Kickstarter campaign aimed at funding the completion of their debut title.

Since its earlier showcases at the Future Games Show and IGN Live, the game has garnered significant attention, with nearly 20,000 wishlists. Despite this traction, the team requires additional support to finalize the project. To give players a glimpse of what’s to come, a two-hour demo featuring Chapter One is now available. In this demo, players step into the shoes of Aline as she navigates a high-stakes escape from Colony 7, encountering enemies, challenging a formidable boss, and exploring the game’s distinct combat and skill mechanics.

To aid in the game’s development, Ground Game Atelier has launched a Kickstarter campaign. Backers can look forward to exclusive rewards, such as a limited-edition t-shirt, digital access to the art and soundtrack, and even the chance to contribute creatively by designing in-game content. Stretch goals include adding new enemies, an additional area, and potential console ports if funding exceeds targets.

Juan Estévez (Yite), the creative lead at Ground Game Atelier, shared the studio’s challenges: “The Time I Have Left has been in development for three years, but 2024 has been a tough year for game developers and independent studios. The game is already half complete, but without community support, we may not be able to finish our passion project. We hope you'll check out the trailer, download the demo, and enjoy it enough to help us Kickstart the game and bring it to players worldwide.”

In The Time I Have Left, players take on the role of Aline, seemingly the last inhabitant of Colony 7, an underground city shrouded in mystery. Marked for death by a phenomenon called "The Miasma," Aline must race against time to uncover hidden secrets, unlock new abilities, and face various threats in this time-driven escape adventure.
