About the Game

A parasitic substance known as Glitch is consuming the world, corrupting all organic life into violent, machine-like entities. You play as STRYX, who resisted full transformation due to reasons unknown, left altered but immune. His journey to fight back the Glitch leads him to a jagged, unforgiving mountain in search of SINGULARITY, the origin of the outbreak. 

Journey Through a World Overtaken by Machines

This action-adventure offers a unique, handcrafted world to explore. Fight your way forward and ascend to the peak of a hostile mountain environment to find your goal.

Tight and Deadly Combat

Unlock new sword and gun abilities to unleash your full potential against the corruption. The game offers souls-like combat with animation-driven combat and movement.

Gather Power-Ups and Evolve

Discover powerful upgrades on your ascent to spend on skills that improve your sword, gun and body. Find every secret and evolve STRYX into an unstoppable force to be reckoned with.

This is a student project. We aimed to pushes fast-paced combat and game-feel as far as six months of development would allow. The game offers action-adventure with souls-like combat and a sprinkle of RPG elements.

The experience takes about half an hour to complete. Try it yourself, it's free :)
