    [Tumblbug] Get away from the approaching threat, ‘Heartless’

    By Editorial Team2022년 04월 02일Updated:2026년 01월 02일3 Mins Read

    ‘Heartless’ is an action game with a story in which the protagonist, who is caught up in a certain incident by accident, struggles to prevent his own death and uncover the truth of the incident.

    ‘Cresent’, which is developing a game, is a college student indie development team formed with the goal of developing a game like Create Present, that is, a gift that allows you to enjoy the present.

    ‘Crescent’, a group of about 20 college students from all over the country, such as Hanyang University’s Yerika, Chung-Ang University, and Gachon University, has neither experience of working at a game company nor of conducting large-scale projects, but with passion and enthusiasm, they study through YouTube and Google and work among their team members. It is said that they share knowledge with each other and solve errors all night long.

    The game will start development in February 2021 and will be officially released on April 29, 2022 or the first week of May.

    I have to… live.

    I forgot the past and lived a normal life.
    While on the way to the last delivery of the store, he witnesses a suspicious scene and is chased for a while.
    A certain fishy scent different from the fishy smell of the sea… It’s…
    The next day, a strange woman came to me and new encounters started
    I don’t look back anymore, I only look forward to live.
