AetherBlade
Read full descriptionHide full description
Twelve bosses. Two classes. One chosen weapon stands between you and the Fallen Light. AetherBlade is a boss rush game. Every encounter is a fight you have to learn. Bosses telegraph attacks, cast bars fill, and openings last exactly as long as your reflexes do. Read the tell, dodge, and then punish - or watch your health bar go down while you're still working out what just happened. CHOOSE YOUR CLASS Paladin - a holy warrior who chains melee combos and answers with radiant magic. Raise your shield, time your dodges, trade blows up close. Mage - a spellcaster whose power is bound by MP. Weave elemental combos to keep your MP reserves alive, fall back on your staff if MP runs low. TWELVE BOSSES, THREE ACTS Descend through the Subterranean, cross the Natural Realms, ascend to the Celestial. Twelve guardians wait along the way. You'll meet them when you get there. Each boss has its own arena, and its own attack set. FIGHT ON YOUR TERMS Cooldown driven combat built on dodging, shielding, and finding the window. Chain attacks for combo damage. Use potions and ether when things go wrong. And when you just want to fight, hit Random Battle - it drops you straight into one of the bosses you've already unlocked, no picking required. A WORLD WITH A VOICE This is a world with detailed history behind it. As you travel on your adventure, every boss has narrated lore. You'll also notice detailed pixel art in every arena, plus a world map to help you travel between fights. Act 1 is free: four bosses, both classes, and the whole combat system. Unlock the Full Main Story to continue into Acts 2 and 3 with a single purchase.
