A while back David Gaider and Liam Esler announced their brand new studio Summerfall that would soon reveal their brand new first title. Many expected it to be an RPG since both Liam and David have experience working on titles like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Knights of the Old Republic and Dragon Age. But their first title, called CHORUS: And Adventure Musical, is something else entirely.
It's a seemingly classic adventure game where the important parts of the story are conveyed through song, and the player gets to decide which way the song goes.
Synopsis
CHORUS tells the story of Grace, member of a band that just held an audition, only for one of the singers to show up at her doorstep, dying. Turns out, the young woman was a Muse and as she lies dying in Grace's apartment she transfers her powers to the young woman. Unfortunately, Grace is accused of murder by the gods, who formed a society called CHORUS. Now, with the power of song she must prove her innocence and she meets up with an eclectic cast of characters.
Developers and Cast
Summerfall Studios was founded by Liam Esler and David Gaider. They are joined by renowned composer Austin Wintory, and Benjamin Ee who has taken on the role of Art Director. Rounding up the team are Elizabeth Blythe and Troy Ferguson. For CHORUS they have Troy Baker acting as Voice Director as well as providing his own voice to one of the characters. Main character Grace is voiced by Laura Bailey.
