Full Circle (2027 – All platforms) JRPG
Top of the Pops
A one-man developer from Peru, Adolfo Juan Fernando Gazzo Castaneda of 2nd Player Games, is the creative force behind Full Circle. Not only is he a talented musician, but he also works as a voice-over artist for a network television programme. Remarkably, he has created virtually every aspect of the game himself, including the artwork, programming, music, sound design, and writing – multilingual – is there no end to his talents?!
This extraordinary passion project has already attracted significant attention from the gaming press, with many outlets highlighting Full Circle as one of the most exciting upcoming indie RPGs. Inspired by the golden age of PlayStation-era JRPGs, the game combines beautiful pixel art, modern 2.5D visuals, and an emotionally driven story, making it one of the most anticipated independent titles currently in development.

Featuring 2D visuals and handcrafted artwork, it offers an estimated 70 hours of gameplay, accompanied by a soundtrack of more than 100 original tracks.

As the threat begins to rise once more, hope rests with the descendants of the legendary Clan of the Elements—the only people ever known to wield the power capable of stopping it.
