Something has awoken, rising from the Decay. Civilization has ended, and creatures older than man are slowly emerging from the depth of the earth.
Vessels of Decay is a retro-inspired action-adventure where you follow Mud and Freja as they venture into the overgrown ruins of a post-apocalyptic Scandinavia. Where monsters and beings from myths and ancient folklore have taken over the lands.

The goblin camps have had a HUGE upgrade this week. They blow horns, they ride birds, they shoot skulls at you! It's adorable chaos as soon as you step into the camp!
Don't forget to wishlist Vessels of Decay!

WIP I've wanted to make for YEARS!
I wanted it to curve the other way as in Mickey's Wild Adventure. But after seeing Adam Younis's stair animation I had to change it. Using that as a reference saved me A TON of work<3

I've finally added side walls to my tileset in Vessels. I was worried that a forced perspective would be weird in-game, but I think it works really good! And it makes this boss fight WAAAY better!

I have continued working on the 3D platforming for Vessels. You can now climb "half levels" and balance on beams. You can jump between all of them! If they are on the same level that is.

After getting feedback on platforming elements in Vessels of Decay, I HAVE MASTERED the art of 3D collision in a 2D space!
Some sprites are still missing (Don't tell SEGA)

I just uploaded an updated build for the playtest!
We had reports of a crash bug with XP orbs. Turns out they sometimes lost their light source and crashed the game... Well, I think it works now! (It does)
