A Branching Narrative Podcast
Theo and Kallie are on their way out for a fun night at the club. Little do they know that monsters lurk in the shadows... waiting for a patsy, a snack, or maybe a saviour. The night will tell.
Calm the Storm is a branching audio game that combines the experience of a narrative podcast with the interactive decision-making of a choose-your-own-path story or visual novel, letting the listener decide on their preferred outcome for the story. Will Theo unlock hidden powers? Will Kallie take arms and fight a vampire? Only you can decide.
Calm the Storm is available on Itch.io, Steam, and for direct download below.
Calm the Storm launched as a free experiment in June, 2025. After collecting feedback from Playability, AccessAbility, and a core group of players, we relaunched the game as a free demo with new UI/UX features.
We plan to release a full game in the future.
*Please note, Calm the Storm contains mild profanity and low-gore violence.
Indie Game Awards Nominee!
We are so honoured that Calm the Storm was nominated for the Indie Game Awards. It means a lot to us that we can make a game that's fun, accessible, and completely free to play.
We plan to continue to grow and develop Calm the Storm, and we can't wait for you all to see it.
