In Eldritchvania, you will explore unearthly ruins, solve arcane riddles and pick up your sword against the indescribable horrors that lurk amidst the forgotten depths of our world. Beware the creeping grip of madness as you uncover secrets not meant for the eyes of men.

Developed by @Scimitri and @NathanAuckett ! With music by @nik !

The game follows the aged occultist, Dougald, as he desperately tries to track down his son, Fergus. All clues lead him to believe Fergus traveled to the small island of Blackhorn, just outside the coast of northern Scotland. Dougald is convinced he must save his son before he unearths the ungodly knowledge buried deep beneath the island. But will his quest force him to uncover the very same secrets? Unearthing the long since abandoned ruins of lost civilizations, your cunning, endurance and sanity will be duly tested. Are you up to the task?

Squashing more and more bugs this week!

Here's a before and after where if a player were to use a spell in the left side of this room they'd get stuck in a wall and begin to slide away.

Now the game will walk you out of the way instead.

As the list of big things to work on gets ever shorter, we've started working on the little things now too.

Here you can see we've made the collectibles get excited as you get near. Look at those happy little things!

Another entry in the vast world of polish that we currently find ourselves in!

We've got a sweet new lightning effect on this magical orb! Which previously just faded to black in quite a lackluster fashion...

Recent- oh wait if was 5 months ago now...

5 months ago we posted a devlog showing the concept for the new options menu.

I've finally taken the art that @Scimitri created, put it together and made it work in game!

Check it out! Key binding and all!

The end is drawing near!

Eldritchvania is drawing ever nearer its completion. We are still working on polishing everything, adding sounds and vfx. We wont be announcing any release dates...yet. But know that exciting... and horrible things await you...

Eldritchvania polish is continuing! This week I made some improvements to the options menu. Old ( top) vs New ( bottom). The new menu is more in line with our other UI, and also has some extra options which have been in our backlog for a while!

Looking to polish up some of our older enemies. I remade the walking animation for this enemy. The old one (top) wasn't really conveying the motion very well. The new one is a bit more frantic but I think it creates a far more interesting impression.

Eldritchvania is full of devious puzzles. Some might be harder than they look. Will you be able to conquer them all?
( Its hard to show off puzzles without giving hints, but hopefully you wont be able to gleam too much from this!)
