Pick up your sword and hit the road in Angeline Era, a new action-adventure game from the creators of Anodyne 2 and Sephonie, releasing today on Steam.

Travel a vast country's unmarked overworld in search of the next challenging fight, humorous encounter, or mysterious landscape. YOU decide what you discover next in this world of Fae, Humans and Angels.

The Angel's mothership, Throne, lies dormant behind a fierce storm. To reach it, unlock its secrets, and usher in the future, you must explore the land of Era and survive its trap-filled ruins, primordial forests, treacherous mountains, mines, and more! Overcome intense battles and hilarious hazards in this tale of betrayal, haunting lore, and fruitless yearning.

Features:

Nonlinear exploration where you travel several overworld regions, searching for hidden levels to explore

"Bump the World!" with intuitive Bumpslash Combat. Walk into enemies to attack - no button needed! Fast-paced action levels AND exploration-and-lore focused levels will test your skills

Explore fearsome Fae forests, condemned buildings, trap-filled farms, spiritual mountains sites, mines, towns, and more!

Fierce and uniquely designed bosses and enemies that will test your Bumpslash skills

Follow wandering ex-soldier, Tets Kinoshta, as he allies with the Angel, Arkas Gemini, attempting to breach the storm guarding Throne: the Angel's crashed mothership. Will they unlock its secrets?

Plenty of levels, each offering glimpses into the Fae, Angels and Humans living together in the country of Era.

Mix up combat with subweapons and a gun, and visit towns to shop for items. Beat levels to get Scales and level up!

A 20-30+ hour single-player experience, depending on how much of the world you want to explore.
