About the Game

TAKE TO THE SKIES!

IRIDESCENT is a vibrant eldritch roguelike where you soar through stylized areas and blast away waves of enemies as a moth! Restore balance to a crumbling world as you explore new locations, bolster yourself with items, and bring down colossal monstrosities.

TRAVERSE COLORFUL ENVIRONMENTS

Time is of the essence as you explore island clusters scattered throughout 3 handcrafted areas! With a timer counting down to the arrival of a boss, blast away enemies and unlock streams that quickly bring you to neighboring islands. As you delve deeper and fight new foes, uncover the eldritch being at the center of this madness.

COLLECT ITEMS AND CUSTOMIZE YOUR BUILD

Using the money gained from defeating enemies, unlock chests that provide a selection of items to choose from and customize your build. In between runs, fish for a chance at new items or trade with the Cat Traders for new upgrades. With 23 items and more on the way, players can enable and disable which items appear further customizing your experience.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS!

Online multiplayer beta is out! We plan to continue to fix bugs and update co-op capabilities in future updates.
