Game Features
- Defeat colorful enemies and challenging bosses to level-up the stats of your player, melee weapons, and ranged weapons.
- Equip a variety of melee and ranged weapons, each with their own unique special skills to unlock. These special skills require multiple levels to unlock and provide powerful benefits that are worth the wait!
- Discover ancient artifacts that provide permanent passive upgrades such as additional healing charges, improved ammo regeneration, and more!
- Manage your stamina and ammo as you explore the war-torn land of Ellifoftria. Because stamina and ammo regenerates over time, you're free to discover the combination of melee and ranged combat that works best for you!
- Jump, dash, and sprint your way through vast, metroidvania-style dungeons with non-linear level design.
- Grow your wisdom to earn more EXP by talking to colorful NPCs and uncovering hidden lore bits. Your wisdom level determines how much EXP you earn from defeating enemies, so more wisdom = more EXP!

- Meet cute, wholesome characters that are brought to life by adorable pixel art inspired by RPGs from the 1990s.
