Astalon: Tears Of The Earth announcement trailer released

I enjoyed very much playing games in my childhood times and even from teenager to adult age. Now I am proud to be mixing engineer for music in retro style gaming experiences like this. -JMK

Three explorers wander through a post-apocalyptic desert to find a way to save the people in their village. A dark, twisted tower has been pushed up from the depths of the Earth… but does it hold the answers they seek?
