About the game

Hack and slash your way through depression in lightning-paced Soulslike to find a way to finally move on from loss in real life

Original Steam description

Story

You’re exhausted.
Jane is stuck in a city that feeds on her doubts, fears, and unresolved grief.

By night, she fights monsters born from her own shadow.
By day, she barely holds herself together.

This is not a story about saving the world.
It’s about surviving yourself — and what happens when you fail to.



Gameplay

SLASH YOUR WAY through an interconnected city

Save your progress in Photobooths.
Heal through Streetlamps and a rechargeable Lighter that rewards aggression.

When you die, you leave everything behind.
To get it back, you must face your Shadow — a version of you that fights exactly like you do.

Balance two currencies:

  • Happiness — spendable, fragile, easily lost

  • Misery — earned through risk, used for growth

Choose how much you’re willing to suffer to become stronger.

Two modes shape the experience:

  • Nightmare — intended, punishing, and rewarding

  • Daydream — forgiving systems with the same combat challenge

Block, parry, kick, and break the enemy's poise.
Unlock shortcuts.
