We’re Ore Creative, the small team developing the surreal adventure game called Ira. In the spring of 2015 we launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund Ira, but the effort failed and we withdrew, taking time to rethink, redevelop and make Ira the experience we know it can be. Now we’re back and we’re returning to Kickstarter on January 5th, and we’d love to share what we have.

Ira is an adventure game spanning multiple timelines, telling the story of an alternate history where the depression era merges with an early space age and mankind sets its sights on a mysterious new star, the Lithic system. To make this feat possible, they launched the Holocene. Intele CO, Earth’s largest corporation and sole proprietor of space travel leads the campaign, but the Lithic System holds many mysteries. Their true mission is highly secretive as they search for some unknown force they hope to exploit for their own gains. But this force also calls to a young boy, Ira, who is chained to Earth by poverty. Years later he wakes from stasis on the outskirts of the Lithic system aboard a derelict ship, and the search for the search for answers begins.

Running an unsuccessful Kickstarter campaign was a valuable learning experience for us. The project has come a long way and we’ve spent months developing our story, revamping our art style, and crafting Ira into a unique experience. We have new images, new writing, a new trailer, and a completely reworked demo of the game, and we’re really excited to share that with the world on January 5th, and we’d love for you to be a part of the journey.

Extra Details:

Point-and-click mechanics
Navigate through a world of intimate 3D spaces as well as serene, atmospheric landscapes. Play through multiple timelines, search for clues that shed light on the mysteries at hand, and use an immersive dialogue system to make choices that echo across space and time.


Explore the lithic system
Allow a creeping tension build as you traverse the Lithic system aboard the Holocene II, explore alien landscapes and search derelict outposts, travel from planet to planet in search of answers. What was the fate of the Holocene? What was their true mission? What has been calling to Ira from across the void of space and time itself?


The Narrative
Ira’s story can’t be told from just one perspective and every angle has a part to play. Relive the events of his childhood. Experience events from the viewpoint of the CEO of Intele Co to the lowly miners below him. From world class researchers to desperate vagabonds, their stories are interconnected across space and time.


The Nature of reality
Be mindful as the nature of reality becomes porous and untrustworthy. Strange anomalies and occurrences seem to permeate the fabric of reality within the Lithic System. Only you can truly decide what is real and what is not on your journey into the unknown.




Happy Gaming!
