FOR ALL THAT REMAINS
✦2-HP COMBAT
Instead of normal HP, the player is either full health, damaged, or dead, with all attack instances doing 1 damage. You can only take 2 hits without healing. Inspired by difficult LV1 runs of Kingdom Hearts and the brutality of Souls games, the game encourages a fast-paced, active approach while balancing out through heal gain and i-frame abilities.
✦ SKILL SWAPS
ACCURSED features skills, ults, and ult buildup triggers, all of which can uniquely be swapped around to create different builds, alongside buff items like talismans and debuff-trade-off equippables. The swappable abilities offer dynamic attacks and mobility, matching the game’s aggressive pace with the two-hit system.
✦ NARRATIVE
Explore a remnant world that grieves its last. Equippables and buffs are accrued depending on narrative decisions and completion. What you choose is reflected in the mechanics and playstyle. The game itself revolves around the central choice of granting the mercy — or, perhaps, cruelty — of death.
