Upcoming souls-like 2D game The Tarnishing of Juxtia by Actual Nerds and Mastiff Games has just released a new gameplay teaser to show players what’s in store for them this Summer when it is released on PC via Steam. While we still don’t have an official release date, this is our first glimpse at the highly-detailed pixel art, stunning environments, dangerous traps, and brutally vicious bosses.
Taking on the role of the final creation of the Goddess Juxtia, players are tasked with defeating the Shadow God Drelium of Crescentpeak – a mysterious, alien realm filled with strange machinery and occult magic. Along with a staggering variety of weapons, armor sets, and abilities, this game features an “Energy Rush” system as well which allows the fiercest warriors to get a super-charged boost of stamina and mana after landing consecutive attacks!
The Tarnishing of Juxtia definitely looks like a game full of challenges and a semi-Metroidvania experience. Do you think you’ll be able to handle the role of Goddess Juxtia’s final creation?
