You are the Echo of Itheris, a soul cursed to relive the final hours of a fallen deity who shattered reality in a fit of betrayal. Trapped in the Oblivion Cycle, a realm where time fractures with each death, you battle through ever-shifting landscapes scarred by the deity’s regrets. The villages burn eternally, temples whisper half-truths, and mutated guardians—former disciples of the god—hunt you as penance for a sin you didn’t commit. To break the cycle, you must piece together the deity’s shattered memories, but each fragment risks merging your identity with theirs. Will you reclaim your soul, or become the new god of this broken world?
Gameplay
1. Karmic Echo Combat – Killing foes in specific orders (e.g., weakest to strongest) charges a "Karma Blade" for boss fights, but reversing the order corrupts your weapon into a life-draining curse.
2. Soulbound Armory – Bind weapons to your soul for permanent upgrades, but each bond locks a skill slot, forcing hybrid playstyles. Die too often, and the weapons develop sentience, turning against you.
3. Fractured Realm Navigation – Leap between parallel versions of biomes (a castle’s pristine past vs. its ruined present) to solve puzzles, but time shifts attract Reckoners—unkillable stalkers that alter level layouts.
Key Features
1. Adaptive Biome Curses – Repeated visits to a biome spawn unique mutations: villages gain explosive firestorms, temples flood with hallucinogenic mist.
2. Memory Shard Fusion – Combine deity memory fragments to craft temporary god-powers, but overuse merges your appearance with the deity, alerting harder enemies.
3. Sanctuary of the Lost – Between runs, recruit defeated bosses as mentors who teach forbidden skills… at the cost of erasing their biome from the cycle.
Pro Tips
1. Corruption Baiting – Let a weapon corrupt to 90%, then shatter it during a boss fight to unleash a screen-clearing explosion that resets your arsenal.
2. Reckoner Harvest – Lure Reckoners into traps (collapsing bridges, lava pits) to farm Echo Dust, a rare resource that pauses time shifts for 60 seconds.
3. Guiltless Reset – Skip three consecutive biome clears to trigger a "Mercy Loop," resetting the Oblivion Cycle with retained upgrades but erasing all story progress.
