What do you think?

Hi, are you planning on releasing a demo for this game in the future?, i want to make a video on it for my channel :)

Kinda cring

Free

Keys to Eclipse DEMO

Version: 1.1.08 days ago
A short demo made for people who just want to try the game, first. Includes the first level from the prologue as well as one stage from each character's storyline. If the nearly 1 GB file size of the full game is too intimidating for you, try this instead!

"It was never your choice to serve, just like it was never your choice to be made."

The seemingly doomed world of Yibbis has to face yet another existential threat.  Thousands of years prior, a horrific being of unfathomable power was imprisoned in another dimension by an advanced civilization that has long since vanished. Fast-forward to the present, and this ancient evil is now on the verge of breaking free from its cage. The VITAL Organization, concealers of the truth, has discovered the existence of three lost artifacts created by the ancients that could potentially stop the entity from escaping and destroying the fabric of reality. They must be found before it is too late.

Some unfortunate shut-in canine named Alan is randomly drafted by VITAL to complete a series of missions in order to find the artifacts. However, things become more complicated when several enemies to the organization are trying to acquire the artifacts for themselves. Two others tread the same path as Alan's, and much like him, they are merely being used by the powers they obey.

This massive sidescrolling platformer features three (technically four) playable characters, each with their own set of abilities. Slash through your enemies as Alan, fill them with lead as Naius, or just straight-up wipe them out of existence with magic as Reraph! The game includes 35 levels total, each one packed with hazards, collectables,  alternate routes, quirky NPCs, and secrets to discover. 

In between stages is when you get to play wacky minigames, decrypt hidden messages, and engage in awkward conversations with the game's cast of awkward characters!

Keys to Eclipse was originally meant to be something more ambitious, but I unfortunately had to cut some story-related content out to shorten the game's length and to keep some of my sanity intact. I intended for the game to be released in late 2022 / early 2023, but I ended up having to delay it several times.

Please be aware that this is still a VERY long game that can take up to 9 hours to complete, so don't try playing through all of this in one sitting.

𝓐𝓭𝓭𝓲𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵 𝓕𝓮𝓪𝓽𝓾𝓻𝓮𝓼:

  • Over 30 tracks of original music

  • Dialogue choices

  • Special "New Game+" areas/alternate routes in every stage.

  • Spooky dream sequences

  • A virtual pet minigame (in "Early Access")

A quick guide to the enemies you'll be facing in Keys to Eclipse:

Last year was really awful and I highly doubt this year is going to be much better. I’m releasing a playable build on Friday. Sorry for all of the delays :( everything sucks right now

Updated the demo (v 1.1)

-Changed the level select screen on the main menu

-Improved Alan's walk cycle animation in the prologue

The FDA approved Keys to Eclipse Demo is now available for safe consumption. (WARNING: there may be some crunchy parts) It includes four playable levels from the full game. I promise that the full version will be available before the end of the year!

All those conspiracy theories you're hearing about the explosion at Orbital Station 09 are BOGUS and completely disrespectful to all the families of the victims! There's no validity to any of those wackjobs! I AM NOT CRAZY!
