About the Game

Explore the world of Celestia in this retro-inspired, top-down action adventure.

When Violet, an average girl, finds herself trapped in a video game, she has to team up with a strange blue-haired girl in order to get home.

Things won't be easy for our heroines. Standing in their way is a world of puzzles, scary monsters, and the might of the Eclipse army, who have recently kidnapped every princess in the land. They'll have to work together, using unique skills and the power of friendship to overcome adversity!

But Who Is This Strange Blue Haired Girl?

Why Are the Eclipse Kidnapping Princesses?


And will Violet have to solve these problems in order to get back home?
