'Ignis' Announced - Screens & Trailer

Ignis is a skill-based game of the battle arena category where the core mechanic is the ability to control trajectories of projectiles.

Move over, battle arena games, there's a new wizard in town. Ignis’ duels are shorter, faster and more intense than you have ever seen.

As a wizard dueling in the arena you must have superior, almost perfect multi-casting skills. While shooting with magical missiles, dodging and protecting yourself with a mystical shield, you must decide when to create chaos with a meteorite, summon a fire-spitting familiar or cast an area-of-effect spell or curse. All this while watching the spells’ cooldowns. Man, it’s fast!

Thanks to this game’s unique controls, you can flexibly determine the path of magical projectiles by using a mouse or a gamepad analog stick. If the opponent puts barriers in the arena, just go around them! Before the fight, you choose spells for your character or upgrade selected spells during the battle. So, in addition to skill, victory also depends on good tactics.

You can polish your mastery of magic in several variants of the single player mode, as well as in the local (split-screen) and online (ranked!) multiplayer modes.

  • Original idea for a battle arena with an innovative spell-casting mechanic
