About This Game

Yoshihiro: An Odyssey of Blood and Karma

Immerse yourself in a Souls-like Hack & Slash inspired by feudal Japan, where every sword stroke tells a story and karma decides your fate. Take on the role of Yoshihiro, a retired samurai whose peaceful life is shattered when his wife disappears in a supernatural storm. Now, he must venture into a cursed island inhabited by yokai, facing not only creatures from Japanese mythology, but also the ghosts of his violent past.

Key Features:

⚔️ Challenging Souls-like Combat: Master the katana and bow in a precise fighting system, featuring dodges, parries, and stamina-sapping special abilities. Each enemy demands strategy and reflexes.

🌀 Dynamic Karma System: Your actions shape the world and Yoshihiro. Defeat yokai, explore secrets, and use karma to enhance abilities, but beware: your choices will affect your ultimate fate.

🎭 Deep Kabuki-Style Narrative: A 5-act storyline, where illustrated cinematics and dialogue with characters like Hana, the Mystic, reveal the island's dark secrets and the protagonist's trauma.

🌑 Atmospheric, Interconnected World: Explore Shodoshima, an island inspired by the Kamakura Era (1281), with gloomy forests, ruined temples, and cursed caves. Unlock abilities to access new areas.

🎨 Art Evoking Classic Japan: 2D pixel art influenced by ukiyo-e and watercolors, accompanied by a soundtrack featuring shakuhachi, koto, and taiko. Film fan? Activate the "Kurosawa Filter" (black and white) for a cinematic experience.

Will you accept the path of redemption... or will you fall into sin?
