"Discovery" through "Adventure": Save the World!

This game is a "Gimmick-Driven Action Shooter" that blends the excitement of classic retro shooters with deep mystery-solving. Blast your way through hordes of monsters, but remember: brute force alone will not save this world. Hidden mysteries, ancient mechanisms, and secret pathways lie waiting in every stage. Only players with sharp eyes and daring hearts will awaken the lost order and restore balance to a fallen realm.

World: A High Fantasy Shrouded in Darkness

A once-prosperous high fantasy realm has been swallowed by darkness. Monstrous legions now roam freely — from classic fantasy foes like Slimes and Kobolds to terrifying creatures of the night such as Zombies and Vampires.

Choose your hero:

Male Warrior or Female Warrior — identical stats, your choice of legend.

Then step into a beautifully crafted world filled with danger, secrets, and wonder.

Grow stronger by solving mysteries!

In Xegrader, power does not come from grinding alone.

Your character becomes stronger only by uncovering hidden mysteries in each level. Solve puzzles, experiment with the environment, and search every corner of the stage.

Remember that magical feeling in classic games when you discovered a secret by accident — like flying into a hidden volcanic crater and finding a rare upgrade? That same thrill of discovery is at the heart of Xegrader. Observe. Experiment. Discover. Become unstoppable.

Retro Soul — Modern Presentation

Golden Age Pixel Art: Gorgeous pixel art by Skipmore, capturing the charm of classic 8-bit and 16-bit adventures.
Modern Atmosphere: Dynamic lighting and shadow effects bring depth to the retro world, making it feel alive and immersive.
Epic Soundtrack: Music by Tadahiro Nitta blends emotional melodies with FM-style chiptune textures — perfectly matching the tension and excitement of your quest.
