Description

Short description

You are Hidalgo Bladewing, a bird with a beef. Hack, slash, platform, and soar through a beautifully chaotic pixel-art neonscape in your quest to save your feathered friends. Challenging retro-inspired platforming gameplay, transforming weapons, and fowl Ninja action await.

Long description

Play as Hidalgo, the last free Bladewing, on a challenging, retro-inspired quest to save your corrupted friends and take down the twisted Crow Sorcerer, Omega Wing.

The world of Judanest is unraveling, poisoned by Meza, and broken by betrayal. You awaken after two years, bound to an eternal tree and armed with a demonic, talking blade that may be your only ally.

Features:

Retro-Inspired Platforming and Precision Gameplay!

Defeat hordes of deadly Tengu in fast-paced, skill-driven combat.

Die, retry, grow stronger, and overcome impossible odds.

Voice-acted cast and charming performances.

Absorb Meza souls to unlock powerful upgrades.

Wield the Yutameta scythe and strike from afar.

Choose your weapon – Hammer, Blade, or Whip? Your choice.

Fully animated opening cutscene sets the tone.

Transform into the Void Crow and demolish the Tengu.

Explore a vibrant world full of color and personality.

Take flight and glide through expansive sections.

Collect elemental powers – Flame, Lightning, and Poison!

A hybrid soundtrack mixing synthwave and JRPG influences!

Hand-drawn pixel art with expressive animation.

Classic approach to video game storytelling and gameplay, and an honest attempt at trying to answer the question of "what if roguelites existed in 1991 for the Sega Dreamcast? "

Intense, precise, and rewarding platforming. Combine a variety of dashes, jumps, and sprints to reach your goal.

Channel the power of the Mezameta Blade to seize corrupted souls from Tengu in the heat of combat.

Smash Tengu with a devastating hammer, unleash massive damage with a brutal greatsword.

Strike from a distance with a 'Vania-inspired whip, or hurl a deadly sickle for devastating ranged attacks.

With a streamlined, yet minimal loop and persistent progression, every death brings you closer to victory. Fall in battle, and the phoenix at the Twilight Perch will revive you as a stronger Bladewing, and more prepared for what’s next.

One level might have you scouring ruins for keys, another navigating vast buildings while dodging patrolling enemies, and others will launch you into the open skies of Judanest for zen-like traversal.
