Combat rewards restraint over impulse. Well-timed blocks define the flow of each fight, turning defense into momentum and forcing careful control of pace. The hand-drawn environments combine ritual imagery with mechanical design, creating a world that feels deliberate, severe, and unfamiliar.
The journey is solitary and driven by resolve. Encounters against the Nine Suns demand precision rather than excess, linking platforming and combat into a single, disciplined rhythm. The focus stays on parry-based action, myth-inspired storytelling, and a stripped-down sense of progression built on mastery, not accumulation.
