Latex Island

Latex Island is a 2D fantasy RPG for players who enjoy puzzle-driven adventures with a nervous, character-focused heroine. The tone leans curious and unsteady rather than confident, fitting its slow descent into strange, restrictive surroundings.

Story

Lathe, an unremarkable apprentice imperial summoner, botches a ritual and ends up stranded on an isolated island. The place holds the ruins of a lost civilization alongside an imperial colony whose settlers have lost their memories. As she searches for a way home, she gets pulled into local conspiracies, a slow conquest of the island, and the pervasive influence of latex that spreads through everything she encounters.

Gameplay

Players guide Lathe through sandbox exploration and environmental puzzles built around a sensory system that manipulates sight, sound, and scent, often by restricting one or more of them. Progress depends on reading the island's ruins and colony spaces carefully, solving crystal and chamber-based puzzles, and triggering scenes tied to specific locations and states. The RPG framework ties movement, puzzle-solving, and encounters together into a single continuous loop across the island.
