What Overfall is

Overfall is an indie game developed by Gathering Tree and released in 2016. It is available on Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Overfall is a fantasy role-playing game of rough diplomacy and tough action. You will lead two heroes on a journey across the high seas in search of their lost king. You will encounter people of all breeds and all creeds; ally with them or crush them without mercy. You will face many dangers; survive them and you may unlock new characters, weapons and skills. In a world where death is permanent, you must return to the beginning and make a fresh start. The heroes you choose, the weapons you unlock and a world that is randomized mean that no two adventures will ever be the same.
