About the Game

Figureless is a story-driven Action-Adventure Survival Horror where time is your greatest enemy.

When a desperate call pulls Colt back to the hometown he left behind, a crash at the town’s entrance traps him in something far worse than he imagined.

The streets are not empty.

They are watching.

 

Colt never planned to return home. After a sudden city-wide lockdown disrupts his new life at university, he receives a call from a hospital in his distant hometown: his uncle, the man who raised him, is dying.

With no one else to go, Colt sets out on an overnight drive, but he never reaches the hospital.

A violent crash at the town’s entrance leaves him stranded and the town he remembers is no longer the same.

The people are gone. Something else remains.

To uncover the truth behind the Figureless, Colt must survive long enough to reach it.
 

  

Figureless blends elements of:

  • Action-Adventure

  • Survival Horror

  • Metroidvania

While being an original title, it draws inspiration from games like Zelda, Metroid and Resident Evil.

WHAT ARE THE FIGURELESS?

They were once human. Now they are predators.

The Figureless are twisted remnants of former townspeople, warped into strange humanoid entities with distinct behaviors, instincts, and hunting patterns.

You’ll encounter over 20 unique types, including:

  • Seeker - Tracks movement relentlessly.

  • Stinger - Strikes with sudden, high-speed lunges.

  • Melter - Corrosive attacks that controls space.

  • And many more.

Every encounter demands adaptation.

                                                                                   

MULTI-STAGE JOURNEY

Figureless will feature 5–7 large interconnected stages, each taking multiple hours to complete.

Your stats, gear, and progression carry over between stages. Every stage pushes you deeper into the mystery,

and closer to whatever created the Figureless.

A WORLD THAT RUNS ON TIME

The game also features a day and night cycle where you will have a limited amount of time to explore.

Each stage lasts 20–30 in-game days.

During the Day:

  • Explore houses, gas stations, schools, and offices.

  • Fight the Figureless.

  • Complete objectives.

  • Gather resources.

  • Gain experience and grow stronger.

At Night:

  • Stay indoors.

  • Craft and upgrade equipment.

  • Store your loot.

  • Cook meals for powerful buffs.

Going outside at night is possible.

It is also a very bad idea.

BUILD YOUR WAY

Level up by defeating enemies and completing quests.

Each level grants stat points to customize your build.

Craft and discover:

  • Melee weapons

  • Firearms

  • Armor pieces

  • Accessories

  • Bags and storage upgrades

Different characters scale differently, meaning builds matter. Choose wisely.


SURVIVE TOGETHER 
You won’t be alone.

Unlock new survivors as you progress. Each character features:

  • Unique melee and ranged weapons

  • Distinct scaling mechanics

  • Different stat synergies

  • Strongly varied playstyles

Fight as a party of up to three active survivors.

Control one directly while the others assist in real time.

Build your team.
Balance your roles.
Survive longer.

Explore. Fight. Survive.

Uncover the truth behind the Figureless, before time runs out.
