STORY

In a world ruined by costant wars, a Queen of a far Nation hopes to bring peace by using a power from another world. After losing control of this power the world plunged into a calamity called "despair". Creature that lost all hope turned into mindless monsters called the "hopeless", while those with great hope and will lost their bodies but managed to keep their souls. Play as one of this flame of hope kindled by those that tried everithing to keep his future alive and chosen by a mysterius being that helps you to banish "despair".

GAMEPLAY

Explore a world wrapped in darkness while being the light of hope that lights the way. Find a way to progress each stage while fighting the hopeless, collecting hopes and surviving numerous obstacles. Become stronger and use different abilities to fight bosses in an action/adveture indie fantasy game with rpg elements and horror vibes.

In this 3D real time action melee focused combat prepare to fight different types of enemies. Choose wisely between healing or using your ultimate ability to end the fight quickly. Evade or block the enemies attacks (be careful to unblockable (pink) attacks). Face different types of enemies that hide in the darkness and try to ambush you (it is possible to spot them by their red eyes). Don't forget to pay attention to the positioning to avioid blind spots in the darkness.

There will be many obstacles in your journey. If a "despair wall" blocks the way, find a "vessel" and kindle it (by using right click or your ultimate near it). If in your path there is a claw of "the other one", go trough the barrier by evading/dashing (press shift while moving). Other obstacles will require timing and/or need to be avoided completely. Even the darkness of despair will hinder you.

Watch closely and pay attention to colors, effect and movements; everything is telegraphed in some way.
