About the Game

An extinction event rendered a life-bearing planet to still silence. Millennia later, deep beneath the planet's surface something is stirring....







Born into a nightmarish fever dream, the Entangled One must fight its way through diverse, visually striking environments from a blasted wasteland beneath an eternal eclipse, to mutant filled crevices, and the putrid guts of the underworld.



Not all things that are strange are hostile...





And yet the Entangled One must slay to survive...



Motivated by survival. Pulled ever forward by something beyond understanding. The Entangled One must slay the godlike Primordials to reach the source of it all: The Primordial Mass....
