About This Demo

⪻ Note ⪼

The demo contains the entirety of the first area of the game, including several rooms, 2 NPC encounters and a bossfight. 2 major systems (skills and upgrades) are still blocked off for the moment and will be present in the full game, along with an extra NPC in the main hub. 

⪻ About the Game ⪼

You are the sword.

Be the Sword is a narrative-heavy roguelite that follows Ignis Caltierra (or Iggy, for short) as he enters inside the Mirror Dimension in seek of the mythical figure of the Lady of the Mirror. 

Amongst the many things he did expect, becoming a literal sword forced to face his inner demons before ever getting to meet her was not one of them.

Face off against the first area in the game, the Full Moon, characterized by a once noble environment fallen to it's own hubris. 

⪻ Features ⪼

  • Fast, visceral face-to-face (or face-to-blade?) combat

  • Fight your inner demons, personified as characters within the Full Moon's glow

  • Try out 4 of the many items that will be available on the full game

  • Unique, hand-drawn pixel animations

  • Talk to Mirror natives and other lost souls

  • The very beginning of a story that has... frankly too much lore

  • Made during hospital visits, built out of sheer determination and a lot of spite
