About the Game

Play as the noble air elemental Furl and traverse the chaotic Incarnae realm known as Homeland.  In her sojourn she'll subdue troublesome beasts, spar with other elemental champions and confer with the powerful deities known as the Primordials.  Ultimately, will the clarity she seeks be found in the council of others, or in her own past, in her confrontation with the one she trusted most...?

Observance of Homeland is a minimalistic, open-ended metroidvania.  Explore the vast world of Homeland and the surrounding territories with few artificial barriers.  Challenge 20 extremely diverse bosses and take their powers for your own.
