About Nethermage

Nethermage is a spell-driven roguelite auto-shooter where you play as a cosmic guardian, a mysterious bird-like mage standing between reality and its collapse.

As strange rifts tear open the fabric of the cosmos, monstrous beings and ancient gods pour through. The balance is faltering, and your power is the last defense.

Journey through five surreal realms, each twisted by its own form of decay.

Unlock and combine magical hats, capes, and spells to survive the escalating chaos. Every run brings new choices, evolving builds, and the chance to fulfill forgotten prophecies.

Key features:

  • Battle through fast-paced, auto-firing combat against relentless and bizarre enemies
  • Discover powerful gear combinations by mixing hats, capes, and spells
  • Complete prophecy challenges that shape your path and unlock secrets
  • Confront towering bosses with unique mechanics and shifting forms
  • Interact with cryptic NPCs offering upgrades, riddles, and unexpected consequences
  • Expand a dynamic ability tree that supports creative strategies and long-term growth
  • Immerse yourself in a stylized, atmospheric world with vibrant visuals and a powerful soundtrack

The universe is unraveling. You're not here to save it. You're here to decide what it becomes.
