Gameplay Details:

In Depths of Deceit, you have to run around, avoid getting caught, and collect all orbs as fast as possible!

You have abilities; meaning you can speed up when you need it! But be careful, you may not have access to these powers all the time.

You can collect special orbs to stun or reveal enemy locations! You sometimes need to think about when to use them!

Levels generate randomly! This includes enemy stats and behavior. Difficulty is not dependent on size. Meaning you can have a massive map and have the same density of special orbs and enemies!
You will get a rank (at the end of arcade mode)! Try to get a P+ by getting an S on lap 1 and 2. (NOTE: Lap 1 and Lap 2 grades are separate)

Speaking of lap 2, when you collect all the orbs, the portal opens up. You can beat it there or go through a different portal that respawns the orbs and makes the game more difficult.
