The pre-purchase discount (20%) is also available in Europe and North America, allowing you to get the game for 10.39€ (instead of $10.39). It’s playable in the following languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified, Traditional), Thai, French, German, Russian, Italian, Portuguese.

Here’s some more details:

The action adventure game Nevaeh is notable for its monochrome graphics, unique classic-style soundtracks, and gloomy atmosphere.
The bright and peaceful town began losing its light since the street lamps went out one by one. A girl heads to the Tower, the source of light, to help the town. In the top of the Tower was a glowing butterfly locked up in the glass sphere. Thinking it could make the town bright again, she decides to take the butterfly with her.
However, as the butterfly disappeared, the Tower and the town lost their light altogether. Now in the town are shadows roaming the streets. The girl tries to go back to where the butterfly was, only to find the way blocked, and veiled in thick darkness.
Can she return the butterfly and bring back light to the town?
Darkness overwhelmed the town after the light was lost. To bring back the light, the player must help the girl through various areas of the dark Tower.
Glowing in black, strange “glitches” will hinder the girl’s journey. These glitches are so dark that even the butterfly is destroyed upon contact. Turning on the light bulbs with the butterfly may help the girl get rid of the glitches.
She may also find a way to solve frustrating mysteries using the light and shadow the butterfly creates.
Somewhere in the Tower, there is a clue to saving the townspeople from the darkness. Looking for hidden passages in each area of the Tower may get the player a step closer to this clue.
