What to Expect in the Demo

  • Three Diverse Explorable Areas: Traverse the dense, neon-lit city before descending into the glowing depths of a subterranean lava cave.

  • A Taste of Kinetic Combat: Test out two distinct playable skills tailored to the game's rhythmic combat system, which heavily rewards perfectly timed parries, fluid parkour dodging, and resource management.

  • Multi-Phase Major Boss Battle: Intense, multi-phase boss encounter that will push players' mastery of the flow state to its absolute limits.

  • Fun Detention Challenges: School is in session even in a parallel dimension! Survive detention by tackling unique, satisfying classroom minigames, featuring high-speed blackboard wiping and custom board designing.

As a solo developer, your feedback is the lifeblood of this project. Whether you mastered the combat rhythm, found a frustrating bug, or just want to chat about the lore, I want to hear from you.
