Overview

About this game

This is a pixel-art 2D action game focused on hardcore combat and mythological storytelling.

Hardcore Combat Experience: Every enemy has a unique attack rhythm. Observe, dodge, and counter to experience the thrill of strategic combat.

Handcrafted Mythical World: Every frame of pixel art is hand-drawn by the developer. Inspired by the Classic of Mountains and Seas and Chinese mythological aesthetics, the game reconstructs a desolate, eerie, and magnificent fantasy world.

Relentless Forward Path: A linear narrative built through side-scrolling level design. There is no getting lost—only fighting your way to the end.

A Concise and Impactful Experience: No meaningless padding or grinding. In 2–3 hours of intense immersion, the game tells a complete story about obsession and the search for self.

                                                                                                                                                                                                

A Word from the Developer

This is my first solo-developed project. While it may not be perfect, I have spent several years refining its gameplay feel, environments, story, and artistic details.

If you enjoy this kind of hardcore action game, even a simple review would mean a great deal to me and help me keep going.
