About the Game

Roxanne: The Forgotten Path is a 2D adventure and platformer game with a metroidvania essence, immersing players in a vibrant, mysterious, and challenging underground world. You play as Max, an ethereal soul who awakens in dark caves with no memories, holding onto only one name in mind: Roxanne.

As you explore various biomes, you'll face enemies, unlock special abilities, and solve challenges while uncovering fragments of your past. Max can transform into water to slip through cracks, harness the Essence of Aether to attack and activate portals, along with other abilities that enhance mobility and combat.

Visually, the game blends dark environments with magical lighting, particle effects, and a semi-realistic aesthetic that amplifies the sense of mystery and magic. The narrative unfolds progressively through echoes of the past, encounters with NPCs, and exploration of a world filled with secrets.

Meet Roxanne: The Forgotten Path — a 2D metroidvania indie adventure wrapped in vibrant tones and professional, multi-palette art that shifts with each level.
