About This Game

FERRUM is a  award winning, student developed, 10 week Souls-like Boss Fighting prototype made for a university course.

"Enter a world dominated by ruin and brutality, where humanity has achieved biological immortality, at the cost of their humanity. These creatures are fused together with iron components, trying to stop the stop the spread of rampant mutations. As societies fell and civilizations ceased, as people lost control, the only goal left was to get energy for another day, at any cost."
