Greed & Darkness Demo Impresses At Tokyo Game Show 2026
The demo's Japanese support suggests the commercial release may reach an audience the Steam store page currently does not list, even though the free itch.io version already drew attention for its quality.

At Tokyo Game Show 2026, which opened September 17, a 4Gamer writer found Greed & Darkness at the EdCorp booth. The game is a first-person grid-based 3D dungeon crawler built around a light mechanic and directional real-time sword combat. Its original version was made by students at Yrgo, a Swedish vocational school, and released free on itch.io. It is now in development for a commercial release with a publisher.
The booth demo supported Japanese even though the Steam store page did not list Japanese among its supported languages. The build throws the player into a dungeon with a single torch and one instruction: collect 1000 gold. Carrying light lets you interact with objects but also lets enemies spot you, so each room becomes a decision about whether to stay visible. Combat is real-time, with sword attacks in three directions (up, right, left) and parries mapped to the guard button plus a direction.
