The Golden Eyed Ghosts is a dark fantasy souls-like adventure heavily influenced by the legacy of Zelda. Set in the crumbling kingdom of Andromeda, you take on the mantle of exiled warrior Orion, seeking to unravel a bone-chilling conspiracy and recover the four legendary stolen swords to save the kingdom from certain doom.

Beneath the kingdom's surface, ancient, macabre secrets lurk, threatening its very existence. Decisions dictate the way forward. Will you slash your way through or seek a cunning approach? Will you harvest life energy or seek solace among strangely familiar grindstones? The choices you make in combat are just the beginning, as they will ripple through this crumbling kingdom, forging alliances or betrayals.

Are you prepared to confront eldritch energies, sinister forests, glittering icefields, murky bogs, and decaying cities? The fate of Andromeda hangs in the balance, and it's up to you to decide whether to let it succumb to madness or stand tall and save this realm from certain doom.

I can't wait for you to descend further into the abyss of Andromeda. If you come across any bugs or have valuable feedback, I'd love to hear from you! Join the official Discord[discord.gg] community and follow me on Twitter for the latest updates.

See you in Andromeda, fellow Adventurers!

We’re just a few days away from the official release at last. I want to thank all of you for your patience over the last two weeks since we announced the release delay. You guys have been so understanding of the situation and I couldn’t appreciate this community more.

There is a demo up on Steam for this weekend as part of the Steam Scream event, so if you haven’t had a chance to check it out yet or just want to experience the game a little bit more before launch, go download it and get a taste of adventure.

If you have any questions or just want to chat about the game, join our community Discord[discord.gg]! I can’t wait to share the world of Andromeda with you.

The Dev Team 🗡️🛡️

Unfortunately, The Golden Eyed Ghosts will not be launching October 13th as originally planned.


During the final round of testing, QA found a few major bugs that were halting progression. We have been working feverishly since the discovery to hopefully get it fixed in time for launch, but we are not comfortable releasing the game before doing more thorough testing to ensure you guys have the best possible first experience.


At this time we don’t have a set “re”-launch date, but we will make sure to share an update on Monday with where things stand to keep all of you in the loop. In the meantime, we will be working through the weekend to get the game ready for a smooth launch.


If you have any questions, feel free to join our community Discord[discord.gg] and read some of the game’s lore to pass the time.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who's been part of this incredible journey. The adventure beckons, and we can't wait for you to uncover its secrets. 🌄🏰🗝️


Step into the exiled warrior Orion's shoes, and embark on a journey to unlock lost memories and unravel a bone-chilling conspiracy that threatens to plunge Andromeda into darkness.💀🕯️

But beware, adventurers! In Andromeda, secrets lie hidden beneath the kingdom's surface, waiting to ensnare the unwary. Are you prepared to make life-changing decisions that will shape your path? ⚔️

Will you charge headfirst into battle or seek a more cunning approach? Harness the life energy of your foes or seek solace in the enigmatic grindstones? Mix and match Orion's abilities to conquer any adversary that crosses your path! 🛡️

Your decisions in this eerie realm could mean the difference between forging alliances or facing betrayal. Will you track down a cunning thief, lend a hand to a suffering maiden, or aid a desperate father? Trust is a fragile currency, and the consequences of your choices will ripple through this crumbling kingdom.

Are you ready to confront eldritch energies, sinister forests, glittering icefields, murky bogs, and decaying cities? The fate of Andromeda hangs in the balance, and it's up to you to decide whether to let it succumb to madness or stand tall and save this realm from certain doom.

Don't miss out on the adventure of a lifetime! Wishlist The Golden Eyed Ghosts now and be the first to know when the game launches. 📆🔔

We can’t wait for you all to experience the land of Andromeda. While you wait for launch, feel free to join our community on Discord,[discord.gg] or follow us on any of the platforms below.

Hi everyone!
It’s been a while since the last update!

There are a ton of new updates to share with you all. We had a great first half of 2023 and development is going smoothly! We are still on track to release later this year.

First of all, we launched a new trailer in March for the Kickstarter as well as for PAX East 2023. You can watch the trailer here!

Hope you enjoy it! We, unfortunately, had to cancel the Kickstarter campaign after encountering some hiccups but rest assured that we are working hard to still get the game in your hands later this year.

Secondly, The Golden Eyed Ghosts was part of Steam Next Fest in June 2023 with a brand new demo! We had a ton of people play the game and give very valuable feedback. We also live-streamed the demo during Next Fest, and the stream is still currently playing so if you missed out on the demo, you can still see gameplay from the Forest area and the boss!

In terms of development, we’re at the content complete milestone now, which means the game is fully playable from start to finish, with all mechanics, enemies, bosses and side-quests in-engine. There’s still a lot of work to be done in terms of making the game feel good to play, making quality of life improvements, balancing and polishing. Stay tuned for more updates!


If you want more updates, make sure to follow us on Twitter!
As always, see you next time!
