Pixel art Metroidvania game Noreiya: The Gold Project coming to Switch
Dreamirl has been cooking up its new pixel art Metroidvania game Noreiya: The Gold Project, and when it’s ready to go in the future, a Switch version will be made available.
Noreiya: The Gold Project is currently in Early Access on PC, so there’s no release window currently. The team previously received extensive funding on Kickstarter with €150,000 raised.
Here’s a bunch of information outlining what to expect:
Noreya: The Gold Project is a 2D pixel-art Metroidvania game set in a dark fantasy universe. The game offers players a choice between allegiance to the Gods of Light and Shadow or the gods of Corruption and Gold! But be careful! Decisions made in the game affect players progress by unlocking new paths or abilities. The game’s key art creates a unique experience for gamers with no player’s gameplay being the same as others, this duality encourages players to explore both paths.
Auria, the God of Avarice, took power over the city of Lemia after imprisoning the Goddess of Light. Kali, a fighter who lost everything at the hands of the gods, sets out for the city to verify the rumors surrounding this new god who corrupts and subjugates humans in exchange for wealth.
Explore the City of Gold and its cathedral, confront the creatures of shadow and gold, pledge allegiance to the god of your choice to embody their power, or detach yourself from the gods and suffer their wrath. Again
