About the Developer

Sunsgrove Studios is a boutique indie game development team with experience ranging from AAA video game development to top-tier award-winning animated programming.

The team is currently hard at work on its first title, War of the Western Deep, based on the beloved all-ages fantasy webcomic Beyond the Western Deep.

About the Game

War of the Western Deep combines classic narrative adventure gameplay with a cinematic combat system, brought to life with gorgeous hand-animated artwork, a stunning orchestral score, and a fully voiced cast of memorable characters.

War is coming to the peaceful kingdom of Sunsgrove. As your northern neighbor secretly prepares for invasion, you are sent by your king to deliver a letter of profound importance. With only your wits and a blade at your side, you, as Royal Courier Mirren, make the long journey across your border into unfamiliar territory--into the wilds of the Border Coast.

The townsfolk do not trust you, bandits and monsters lurk in the forest depths, and you are a mere courier in a foreign kingdom on the eve of war.

To make it back home, you will need to explore the dense forests and dangerous ruins of the Border Coast. Draw your blade to defend yourself, gain the trust of the locals in the nearby village of Ardmoor, and find a way to stave off the brewing war that threatens your homeland.

Featuring gorgeous hand-animated characters by Knights of the Light Table (Starlight Brigade) based on the beloved fantasy comic series Beyond the Western Deep, War of the Western Deep puts you in control of your very own classically animated adventure.
