Journey through an introspective, fantasy-filled land and unlock the secret encrypted on your phone before the world crumbles around you.
Features
A hand-painted world to explore
✨ Chat up the local Tanuki, learn how to translate Slimespeak, and explore every corner of your quaint home town until you’ve found all 60 collectibles. The game features non-linear, collectathon-style exploration mixed with RPG-style story quests.
Bullet hell meets platforming
✨ Dodge bullets! With 4+ bullet hell boss battles and even more challenge rooms, you’ll have to learn how to platform in a whole new way.
Plot twists and genre-bending developments
✨ Experience a heartfelt story with a 100,000+ word count. Comedy! Drama! Social anxiety! Philosophy? We dropped the “silent protagonist” trope to create a heroine with her own personality and feelings — and she’s always one step ahead of you.
A sense of wonder and adventure
✨ Work through old-school puzzles that will make you want to use the in-game hints. Rekindle that childlike sense of discovery with a game that treats you like an adult — inspired by Fez, La Mulana, Majora’s Mask, and much more.
