Meet Clayre, a loyal Replica who joins you on your journey.

She’ll play a bigger role than you expect… but that’s for you to discover

🚨If you could shape in-game relationships with NPCs, how would you want them to grow?

The Arc Brawler animation sketch. 🥊

This is an oppressive powerhouse enemy that mixes multiple fighting styles.

(Don’t worry, Zura’s perfectly fine. This was only a demonstration.)

Welcome to the frozen lands of Tema! 🧊

An icy realm of solemn beauty and ancient echoes.

🚨What kind of things do you want to see in a biome like this? Environment details, enemies, new mechanics?

#pixelart | #indiedev | #IndieGameDev | #ドット絵 | #gamedev | #metroidvania
Wide view of the frozen lands of Tema: a vast icy biome with snow covered mountains, frozen lakes, and wind-swept tundra. The scene feels desolate yet majestic, hinting at ancient history beneath the ice.

The - Shadeforger - is a support unit that buffs the other enemies, so it's important to deal with it as fast as possible.

🚨Question time!
As we are working on this enemy, which one is your favorite?

Taking the fight to the skies! 🪂

The Throw Spear lets you also strike flying enemies, and when you chain it with other combos.
