'ScourgeBringer' (ALL) Now Available Through Early Access - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 6, 2020 @ 1:48 p.m. PST

ScourgeBringer is a fast-paced roguelite platformer that aims to channel the mystery and rawness of an early Metroidvania, with fluid controls, fearsome bosses and a punchy soundtrack.

The story follows hero Kyhra, who is sent away to uncover the secrets of an Eldritch monolith which is threatening to destroy her world. Armed with her trusty combat drone, she must shoot and slash her way through the infinite depths of an ever-changing dungeon, wherein gigantic bosses, ancient machines, strange ghosts and untold secrets from previous explorers await.

There is no backtracking, as the game structure follows a procedural combination of pre-built challenge rooms, not unlike the Binding of Isaac.


ScourgeBringer is now available through Steam Early Access and Xbox Game Pass for PC.

The current Early Access version will offer all core game mechanics and roughly half the content of the final game. Further game worlds, weapons, bosses, skills and quality of life improvements will be added over the coming months.

The game is in open development, with an in-game feedback system gathering feedback from players, and regular looks behind the curtain courtesy of regular development updates from Flying Oak Games.
