Overview

About this game

Lyden Lys is a knowledge-based metroidvania set in a world filled with secrets and touching stories. You are a descendant of a once-flourishing people, but your homeland is fading – and in its final moments, you must uncover the truth about the past, the world, and yourself.

  • Use musical combinations to interact with the world

  • Find them, learn from others, or figure them out – make your way through the world by any means

  • Three modules for your instrument: one you start the game with, the second will turn everything upside down, and the third will let you play music without limits

  • Non-linear exploration – with the right melody, you can reach the final locations from the very start of the game

  • Wander through the homeland you don’t remember and discover what happened

  • You are a former internal structures climber – you can scale every wall

  • Speak with the last representatives of your people (or not, as you wish)

  • Help strange creatures (or leave them to their fate)

  • This world is too fragile – your choices will affect it, one way or another
