About the Game

SWORDSWALLOWER is a psych-goth action platformer where you'll traverse and fight only by throwing a massive enchanted sword. Instead of jumping, you hurl your sword into the environment and pull yourself toward it with deadly speed. Using this weapon, you'll explore labyrinthine, dreamlike metroidvania levels and go toe-to-toe with ferocious opponents.

BRUTAL SWORDPLAY: Dash and cleave through hordes of enemies in a brutal dance using your gigantic sword. You'll escape only by the skin of your teeth.

ACCESSIBLE BUT DEEP: Master a deep combat system that's fun for players of all skill levels but rewards expertise, strategy, and speed.

INNOVATIVE NAVIGATION: Explore every tower and valley you spy in the distant background by circling a looping island map that mixes 2D with 3D.

AN UNSOLVABLE NIGHTMARE: Walk the edge of reality and fantasy as you hunt for the cure to the nightmarish, mind-altering disease which mysteriously grips your homeland.

ONE OF A KIND SOUNDTRACK: Be immersed by an emotional, atmospheric soundtrack that brings the world to life by mixing alternative rock with classical, hardcore, post-rock, and more.
