About the Game

STORY


In this land the dead but slumber and wait, and when a new kingdom rises up they drag it back into the dirt. You have awoken at the bottom of an ichorous pit, deathless and restless you hunger for flesh. As you fight through the ruins of countless ancient civilizations... will you repeat the mistakes of the past? Or learn from those who’ve come before you and ESCAPE THE CORPSE CASTLE?

DESCRIPTION


Corpse Castle is a finely tuned, high-velocity Platform Fighter with a focus on unique and bizarre mechanics. It has integrated elements of Bullet Hell and Twin-Stick Shooter to create intense 360° directional combat, a unique health system to propagate a vicious back-and-forth pacing, dynamic shifting landscape for an ever changing battlefield, and procedural animation system that generates all character motion & animation in real-time.

FEATURES


• Insane single & multiplayer combat in competitive, party, PvP & co-op game modes. Fast paced, highly simulated movement makes for high velocity combat in motion

• Fight your way through the ruins of 9 ancient civilizations as you solve a deep unwinding mystery.

• Nightmarish horror-themed combat! Utilize body horror, necromancy, blood magic and more to wrestle hand-over-hand with combatants for health points and the very flesh that makes up your body.

• Powered by an incredible procedural animation system. Experience combat like no other game on the planet with fully simulated characters that must actually use their bodies to interact with their world.
