TUNIC: Dreams of a Ruin Seeker

TUNIC is an isometric action-adventure game about a tiny fox in a big world where you explore the wilderness, fight monsters, and find secrets.

First named “Secret Legend” in 2016, it became “TUNIC” in 2017. I first discovered the game in 2018, at Microsoft’s E3 press conference. I was fortunate to get to play an early demo at FWA and fell in love with the game.

My first adventure was challenging and magical. Just three days after launch, I had uncovered all there was to see in TUNIC. I joined the early speedrunning community, hoping to ease the withdrawal, and two months later ran Any% in my first charity marathon.

I feel so fortunate to have had such a fantastic experience with TUNIC. I’ve made good friends, talked with the devs, and even influenced a patch. TUNIC has quickly become one of my favorite games of all time. With TUNIC’s new platform releases, I wanted to do something to give back and celebrate.

DREAMS OF A RUIN SEEKER is a celebration of TUNIC’s artistry: its visuals, soundscape, design, world, and story. Using various UI mods (debug, no-UI and randomizer), I captured footage across the game from different angles, perspectives and zoom levels in 4K at 60fps. I then arranged it over the official soundtrack, in relative gameplay order.

This of course means this production is full of MANY SPOILERS, so please play the game before watching this!

I hope this production brings you even some of the joy I felt making it. 🦊❤️
