Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The game is moderately large (but doable) in scope and i believe that Early Access would benefit this game for the following two reasons: releasing each stage in installments would be more beneficial in its development than waiting another 2-3 years to get every stage done at once., and I'd like the chance to further refine the game with customer input, that way i can make the game best suited for my players.

I love game development and I love this game I'm making quite a bit as well so i plan to be here for the long haul.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“about 2-3 years”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“the game would have all 8 stages, each with their own bossfights secrets, and hidden stages, along with additional weapons, enemies, and the full narrative”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“the only stage added right now is the first stage out of the 8, "Limbo"”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“the game's price will be lower during the early access period, but after early access has concluded the price will go up ever so slightly.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“yes, very much so. i plan to post frequent updates, to my Steam page AND my personal website/blog.”

About This Game

--> add general but flashy gameplay gif here <--

A Metroidvania of Power, Strategy, and Tragedy

Awaken as Arson, a resurrected war machine caught between the past and an uncertain future. Built from the remains of three legendary combat units, you wield their fragmented power in a world ravaged by demons, mutants, and forgotten ghosts of war. Your choices will define the fate of this world—will you carve a path of freedom, chaos, or indifference?

FORM-SHIFTING COMBAT

--> add gif example here <--

Switch seamlessly between three distinct combat forms:

  • Summoner – A tactical controller who commands minions to fight in your stead.

  • Frenzy – A relentless melee brawler with high-speed attacks and brutal finishers.

  • Golem – A walking fortress armed with devastating heavy weapons.

Master each form’s unique movement abilities, weapons, and ultimate attacks, and discover devastating Overload Combos by chaining abilities together.

A WORLD SHAPED BY CHOICE

--> add scrolling terrain gif here (a collage of several stage environments <--

Your journey takes you through seven massive, interconnected stages, each representing a layer of hell and a stage of grief. Every faction you encounter—the demonic legions, the ghoulish survivors, the biomechanical robots, and the remnants of an extinct humanity—has its own motivations and secrets. Will you fight for them, against them, or leave them to their fate?

EVOLVING ENEMIES, BRUTAL CHALLENGES

--> add combat gif example here <--

Enemies adapt to your tactics—armored behemoths resist stagger, mutants swarm in packs, and corrupted machines counter your every move. Status effects like burn, freeze, shock, and irradiation alter their behavior and can chain between foes, turning the tide of battle in your favor.

DISCOVER THE TRUTH, OR DESTROY IT

--> add  boss fight or some cryptic gif example here <--

Arson’s past is buried in the wreckage of war, but the deeper you go, the more the truth reveals itself. Who were you before your resurrection? What price must be paid to reclaim what was lost?

Will you embrace your humanity—or burn the world to the ground?
