HYPERxFANTASY

Recruited by this very cult under the promise of "Ascension," you'll instead uncover a conspiracy: an overpowered overlord has hijacked the game from its creator and is now twisting it to her will. Inspired by the philosophical themes of NieR:Automata and the narrator chaos of The Stanley Parable, this RPG constantly rewrites its rules. Expect to shift between 3D exploration with a fast-paced glider, abstract rhythm journeys, and intimate point-and-click moments – all woven into a story with non-linear quests and meaningful choices.

  • The Accidental Nightmare: Locked up by a character he wrote, the creator was shocked by the nightmare he'd accidentally built. Now he derails your quests with goofy, bizarre activities – just to make his dark world a little more fun for you.
  • Glide Through a Haunting Dystopia: Use your glider to drift through a foggy, immersive world where stunning silhouettes of megastructures haunt the horizon. It's a beautiful but unsettling mix of Blade Runner-inspired retrofuturism and terrifying, otherworldly architecture.
  • Combat With Weight: A directional, timing-based sword system where every swing counts. It's tense and deliberate- not button-mashy.
  • Genre-Bending Gameplay: The game constantly subverts the RPG formula with unexpected shifts – from 3D exploration to abstract rhythm journeys, 2D platforming, and intimate point-and-click moments.
  • Where Machines Are More Human: The narrative explores a central absurdity: The machines care more about preserving love, culture, and memory than their human creators, who are focused only on digitizing their souls.
