About the Game

Ember’s Oath is a third-person, action-adventure, combat-focused game where players take on the role of a shapeshifting mage capable of transforming into a phoenix. 

Set in a dark and corrupted world where magic is being systematically destroyed, the game features high-intensity combat requiring players to switch fluidly between humanoid and phoenix forms to defeat herds of mechanical beasts.

The player's ability to shapeshift introduces a dynamic layer to combat, offering a distinct playstyle with powerful unique abilities and enhanced mobility options. Additionally, players become empowered as they progress through the game by unlocking new spells through a skill tree. 

Ember's Oath encourages discovery, featuring an open world level that can be traversed by both foot and flight.

There may even be some secrets lying about as you fly and explore this dark fantasy world.

  • High-intensity combat with challenging and fun enemy encounters

  • Fluid and intuitive flight mechanics

  • Two different playstyles, meant to both be used in synergy with one another

  • A progression system for unlocking new and powerful spells from a skill tree

  • An atmospheric open world level with a voice acted quest line

  • 20-30+ minutes of gameplay
