A Shamanic Adventure Inspired by Qom Tales of the Black Tree.

♥
Laidaxai and the Black Tree is an action-adventure 2D game that takes us to a magical dreamworld.
Get ready to learn how to control the new magical powers you will earn, to catch/avoid dangerous beings, to discover the secrets of the Sa’atalek realm and to become a Piogonak (shaman).
I handled the art, narrative, and development of the project with the assistance of More Mountain Corgi Engine. Game design was done by Nacho Rud, music by Matias Carou, content design and translations by Cinthia Longo, and the English version by Mariana Rud.
Laidaxai, a powerful girl.
♥
Meet Laidaxai, an 8-year-old girl who was born in the Chaco province. Her name means “black”. She loves to explore the forest by her house and to be told bedtime stories. She can speak Spanish and Qom.
Her main goal is to save her land and her community from a strange sleep sickness they cannot wake up from.
Who will you meet?

You’ll meet beings from ancient Qom tales and learn all about their stories. Among them, you’ll meet the ItaGaiaGawa, helper spirits that protect the tree who will give you new powers so you can overcome the obstacles that the Black Tree will put on your path to test the strength of your spirit.
