About This Game

Premise

In "Iridescent" you step into the shoes of Kruk, a long time member of the Astel family, renowned healers entrusted with perilous missions. Tasked with curing a plague that transforms people into beasts or madmen, Kruk soon discovers that this affliction is merely a symptom of a world teetering on the brink of destruction. Being seemingly the only one who is willing to try, he embarks on an odyssey through the whole world to acquire the cure.

Gameplay

The classic Zelda formula of dungeons, exploration and side quests meets combat inspired by Sekiro. The combat is deflection/parry based while giving you plenty of room for self expression with many unique tools to use. The dungeons are sprawling with many puzzles and combat encounters. Each dungeon having unique theming and gimmicks to keep the game fresh!

Combat

Combat in "Iridescent" is a test of skill and precision. Embrace the art of parrying to deflect enemy attacks while sneaking your own attacks in between, gradually chipping away at their stagger bar until its filled and you can unleash a powerful grapple attack that inflicts massive damage. Boss battles are dynamic and intense, with adversaries evolving and adapting their tactics as the fight unfolds, keeping you on your toes until the very end.

Demo

The demo is the first level of the game given away for free. The savefile used will be usable in the full game so if you aren't sure about buying the game you can use the demo as a an extra refund window. The first level is a microcosm of the whole gameplay loop. On average it takes people about 1-2 hours to beat. If any of this seems at all interesting then it's the best place to start!
