The Story

Bedtime Stories is a 2D platformer where you ward off evils as the heroes in a fairytale world of the bedtime stories told by two struggling parents. Three parallel timelines unfold as each parent takes turns telling their tales, reflecting their journey to reconcile their cultural differences. As the heroes in these stories triumph with the help of allies rather than powerful weapons or artefacts, the parents are reminded of the importance of people over their rigid beliefs.
