Saviorless Description
Saviorless is an action platformer which is the first indie production from Cuba. The game was developed by the independent studio Empty Head Games, for which it is a debut project.
Plot
Saviorless takes us to a fantasy world and allows us to play the role of three characters, each with different abilities, challenges they must face, and their goals.
Antar is a reckless young man trying to reach the forbidden land, known as the Smiling Islands. The Savior is a disguised avatar of Antara, who must face hordes of enemies attacking his kingdom. The last character is Nento, a ruthless hunter who will do anything to play the leading role in this story.
Mechanics
In Saviorless we watch the action from the side. During the game, we can freely switch between characters. While traversing locations, we jump on platforms, avoid traps and terrain obstacles, and also confront enemies.
On our way, we encounter various, grotesque creatures, among which we find both standard enemies and much more powerful bosses. During dynamic clashes, we must be constantly moving, making swift dodges and accurate attacks, and sometimes also making use of elements of the environment. The fun is diversified by occasional puzzles waiting to be solved.
Technical aspects
Saviorless features cartoonish, hand-drawn 2D graphics.
