Forestrike
As a martial artist named Yu, you embark on a journey across the country to free the Emperor from an evil Admiral's influence. Adopting techniques from one of five unique Masters, each battle presents a puzzle that must be solved using your mind as well as your fists. Yu encounters many foes on his path to the capital, and he is always outnumbered, but he has a secret weapon: the Foresight, a meditative technique that allows him to mentally perceive fights over and over until he finds a sequence of movements that allows him to overcome the odds. Once ready, our hero must fight in reality, where losing means starting everything over, but progress is permanent. Winning doesn't always mean he will emerge from each encounter unscathed, but the further he travels, the stronger he will become.
- Forewarned is Forearmed: Foresight is a distinctive game mechanic that lets players experiment without consequences before fighting for real – and win-or-die trying. Forestrike's roguelike game loop generates unique runs and encounters every time, so adaptation and improvisation are crucial to progress.
- Visceral Kung Fu Combat: Always outnumbered, learn to dispatch mobs of brutal enemies with poise and efficiency using everything at your disposal. Upgrade and customize your movesets with techniques from your chosen Masters to help you outwit your opponents in fierce, puzzle-like battles.
- Handcrafted Fantasy: Journey through a visually striking fantasy world inhabited by unique characters, vicious enemies, and magical revelations. Intricate pixel art landscapes form an atmospheric backdrop to handcrafted animation and characters.
