FAQ

Questions answered.

When does the demo come out?

Targeting summer 2026. Mailing list subscribers get 24-hour early access before it goes live for everyone else.

What platforms?

PC at launch (Steam). Built in Unity 6, so other platforms are technically possible — let us know on Discord what you'd want.

Is this a Vampire Survivors clone?

It shares DNA — bullet-heaven swarm pressure — but the soul harvesting + ghost summoning + ally merging + sigil system make the loop play very differently. Closer to "Vampire Survivors meets a tactical summoner."

Who's making this?

A solo developer based in Longueuil, Quebec, working on this full-time since February 2026 in Unity 6 with PlayMaker. Previously a Technical UX Designer at a game studio — quit to ship this.
