About the game

Blitz enemies in slow motion as an energy-based speedster and stop time then fire off with precision as a warp speed teleporter in this space-time action! Phase Nexus is a cartoony character action game that stars a quarter alien and a cyborg vigilante fighting against reality-breaking anomalies.

Original Steam description

SPACE-TIME ACTION

Experience a high-speed, 2-bit blitz where style meets precision. Inspired by the fifth-seventh generation eras of action, this project delivers a dual-protagonist experience built around momentum, mastery, and technical combat. Whether you’re tearing through enemies with kinetic melee or dissecting the battlefield with warp-speed projectiles, every encounter is a canvas for your aggression with a "view that is beautiful".

The Protagonists

Cyanser: The Kinetic Force

Cyanser is the personification of flow. Her gameplay revolves around Kinetic Flow Motion, where building and maintaining momentum is the key to dominance. A melee specialist at heart, she utilizes a versatile array of bioluminescent energies to adapt to any threat:

  • Elemental Versatility: Shift between high-frequency Light blades, luring enemies with Electromagnetic traps, or freezing threats solid with Cryokinetic projectiles.

  • Adaptive Combat: From the long-ranged Hydrokinetic energy to the rapid, searing strikes of Pyrokinetics, her style is about staying in the face of the enemy and never letting the pressure drop.

Raviel: The Warp-Speed Tactician

Raviel plays a different game entirely, focusing on Warp Speed Teleportation and surgical precision. She excels at controlling the distance and dictates the pace of combat through aggressive projectile play and instant repositioning:

  • Tactical Projectiles: Engage from afar with the standard-issue Lance, utilize homing Chakrams for crowd control, or deploy Rifts to implode enemy formations and pull them into your line of fire.

  • Reactionary Combat: Her kit rewards high reaction speeds, allowing you to blink through danger and punish openings with a mix of martial arts and energy-infused weaponry like combat knives and claws.

Key Features

  • Distinct Playstyles: Experience the unique combat flow state between Cyanser’s hack-n-slash "Beat 'em Up" flow and Raviel’s "Run n' Gun" tactical aggression.

  • 2-Bit Chibi Aesthetic: A striking, high-contrast visual style that brings humanoid chibi designs to life with fluid, expressive animation.

  • Technical Combat: Deeply influenced by stylish action classics, emphasizing "troubleshooting" enemy patterns through critical thinking and mechanical skill.
