About Celestial Lumina

Pick up your sword as Evan, stranded prince of the last kingdom with life within its borders. Embark upon an epic voyage to discover the hidden secrets behind the walls of the palace you knew. Test your mettle against enemies who have fallen to evil--pawns in the war between light and darkness. Only light can pierce the parasitical darkness, and only you can wield it.

Explore

Embark upon an epic quest to restore light to the world by climbing through a contrasting set of environments in Celestial Lumina, a hand-crafted, 2D Pixel Art Metroidvania. Climb from the roots of the earth to the dystopian ruins of a once-great empire, expanding your arsenal of abilities to battle against the Darkness. Each new area brings added movement, tools, and secrets. Find permanent abilities and temporary tools to forge your own path through a world full of interconnected secrets.

Fight

Vanquish the lurking darkness with an arsenal of weapons, whether it's summoning a giant raincloud from your inventory or transforming your blade into a piercing light shattering even the deepest night. Use your stargun to launch projectile attacks to your foes from a distance or unlock the minefield to deviously trap your enemies. Fight against the void your way with the world's plethora of unique toolsets.

Journey

Awaken powerful abilities that evolve to suit your needs, from a dash to a wall-clipping lightning shift. Face off against formidable foes, threatening all existence. Encounter a colorful cast of characters, each willing to help you or hurt you.

RISE

Darkness reigns.

The world is enshrouded by evil.

Only one can restore the light.

The World of Celestial Lumina invites you to embark upon this quest. Bring back the light, or die trying.
