About the Game

  • Your Mecha Power suits have been stolen and divided among six of the deadliest monsters your vampiric brother, Dark Moth, has staged against you.

  • Hunt them down to recover and toggle through your suite of MECHA CHASSIS, each featuring unique elemental advantages and custom Blaster configurations.

  • In Wight Butterfly, you are the Mecha protector of peace. Fight through a punishing 2D side-scrolling shooter where survival depends on high-powered blasting and split-second reflexes. All rendered with limited color palettes that capture authentic retro vibes and aesthetics.

  • Every victory spawns a Reaper. Earn permanent mobility abilities as you progress through the story; levels adapt to your new powers, testing your found upgrades and skills at every turn. Master them all to breeze through the different areas, and puzzles designed against your upgrades.

  • Swap through your suite of VAMPIRE MECHA POWER CHASSIS as your adventure unfolds to adapt to different enemy types and environmental hazards. Every boss elimination returns a piece of your arsenal.
    Adapt your suit to the enemy, or be destroyed by your own technology.

  • Battle through an onslaught of deadly monsters sent to duplicate your very own tactics, leading to a final confrontation with your brother, Dark Moth.

Equip your VAMPIRE MECHA POWER CHASSIS suit and collect what was stolen from you.
