Charon's Corner
A downloadable game for Windows
For the 2025-2026 academic year, the mock-AAA student-run studio, Studio Aspen, presents: Charon's Corner.
Charon, ferryman of the Greek underworld, has traded his boat for a bowling alley, a series of dark, winding lanes where the skulls of the damned are bowled through the ruins of their memories. You wake up as a rolling, confused, and desperate skull, navigating your memory lanes as you rediscover who you were, how you died, and whether the life you uncover is worth fighting for. Bowl through your history in this narrative 3D platformer set at the edge of the underworld.
