    Features
    Feature Our story begins with a 7 year old boy named Aidan with an imagination the size of a maze. Aidan's older brother, one night, decides to tell him the story of what happened to his grandfather whom neither has met.

    Aidan's older brother explains that the reasoning behind their grandfather's disappearance was because of his curiosity to go after a long lost treasure hidden in the middle of a maze known as the Odyssey. Not only is the maze perilous as can be, it is also infested by a gang of thieves known as the Scar. These ruthless thieves answer to one person and one person alone, Staz, the leader of the Scar. Staz is a man who is darker than the shadows themselves and will do almost anything to ensure that the maze stays the way he wants it to.

    Aidan's grandfather having a nag for adventure disregards these knowings and enters the maze. It has been 30 years since anyone has heard anything from grandfather. Aidan's brother explains to his brother about how late it is getting and sends him off to sleep...

    ...that is where the story begins...
    Feature 2 About the game
    Randomised Adventure
    The labyrinth is an ever-changing beast. Once you leave a room, you may never return. Choose each direction carefully as you make your way through a new story.

    Varied items
    Not all the treasures of the maze belong to Staz. If you find yourself lucky, you may bump into an item or two along your adventure.

    Intense Boss Levels
    The Scar, a fierce band of thieves owns this maze. Taking the form of man, animal, or monster, each of these guards their respective sector. Face off against each to take back the story.

    Enemies
    The creatures that dwell in the maze are things that are not of the human world. Make sure to be ever watchful of what's behind you, because the things that linger in the shadows could be your end!

    Environment
    The environment can be used as your friend, or your enemy. The Odyssey has every environment you can imagine, so make sure to be prepared if you value your condition.

    LOADING...

    The Story Goes On is a downloadable Steam arcade-indie game about exploring a changing maze, suited to players who enjoy randomized adventures, dangerous enemies, and boss fights.

    Recommended For

    • Players looking for short, replayable action-dungeon runs: the maze changes between runs, and rooms you leave may not be available again.
    • Hack-and-slash fans who enjoy experimenting with item combinations, combat upgrades, and different ways to move through puzzle areas.
    • Secret hunters and achievement-focused players who like checking maze rooms for hidden discoveries and optional challenges.
    • Two players who want a shared-screen co-op dungeon-crawling session; Steam lists shared/split-screen co-op support.

    Real-World Use Scenarios

    • When you want to replay a dungeon crawler without repeating the exact same route, explore the Odyssey room by room; randomized layouts, item placements, and encounters make each run play out differently.
    • When you want straightforward action rather than a long sequence of dialogue or complex systems, clear enemy-filled rooms with melee combat, collect loot, and move toward the next area.
    • When you enjoy adapting your approach as a run unfolds, try the items and upgrades you find; different pickups can change your combat options and help each attempt feel distinct.
    • When you reach a sector boss, pay attention to its attacks and adjust your timing; reviews describe distinct boss encounters where learning the pattern helps you progress.
    • When you are new to roguelike dungeon games, use the room-by-room structure to learn the basic combat and loot loop; one Steam community review described the game as approachable for players new to the genre.

    Reference Q&A

    Q: The Story Goes On or The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth—which should I choose?

    A: Choose The Story Goes On if you want fast melee combat built around sword attacks, exploration, and changing dungeons. Choose The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth if you prefer a randomly generated action shooter. Both use roguelike elements, but their core combat differs: sword-and-hack-and-slash in The Story Goes On versus shooting in Isaac.

    Q: Is The Story Goes On a good alternative to Enter the Gungeon?

    A: Choose The Story Goes On for sword-focused hack-and-slash combat, dungeon exploration, and randomized runs. Choose Enter the Gungeon if you want a gun-based bullet-hell dungeon crawler centered on shooting and dodging. The main difference is melee exploration versus ranged, bullet-dodging combat.

    Q: The Story Goes On or The Weaponographist—which suits exploration-focused runs?

    A: The Story Goes On is the stronger fit if you want to explore randomized dungeon rooms, find items, and progress through a changing world. The Weaponographist is a better fit if you want combat built around maintaining combos and managing weapons. Both are top-down hack-and-slash games, but their run-to-run focus differs.

    Q: Who is The Story Goes On suitable for?

    A: It is suited to players who enjoy arcade-style indie adventures with maze exploration, randomized rooms, enemies, items, and boss fights. The changing labyrinth means routes and encounters can vary between runs.

    Q: What PC does this game require?

    A: The Newegg listing specifies Windows XP, Vista, 7, or 8, a 1.6 GHz processor, 1 GB of memory, and a DirectX 9-compatible graphics card. These are the listed requirements; check current Steam compatibility before buying for an older Windows PC.

    Q: Is The Story Goes On single-player or multiplayer?

    A: The Steam listing identifies single-player and local co-op support. The product information provided for this downloadable code does not specify whether every listed play mode is available in this particular version.

    Q: Is this a physical game or a digital download?

    A: It is listed as a downloadable game code with Steam DRM, not as a physical disc. A Steam account is needed to redeem and access the game.
