Trace is a lean, mean, - and with his mechanical arms, perhaps literal - platforming machine. With a wide array of moves and techniques at his disposal, he can traverse nearly any location with ease! Even without the Aurascope’s abilities, he is still an extremely agile and trailblazing adventurer with a big heart.


Aurora is an extraordinary engineer and inventor. She never shies away from adventure and may be even more of a daredevil than Trace. She is equipped with several unique inventions of her own design in addition to being able to use the Aurascope. Her smarts and determination are what get her through the toughest situations!





To put it simply, my goal for Aurascope is make one of the best indie platformers out there!

Ever since I was a kid and my sister bought me my first console I absolutely fell in love with videogames. I told myself one day I'll make my own game and that's exactly what I'm doing here with Aurascope!

Aurascope's intention as a game is to make the player feel a sense of wonder and enjoyment! Taking the best of what platformers do while at the same time adding more oomph to it. Plenty of content, care, polish, and more to make sure this game is something memorable, replayable, and most importantly fun! Accessibility is key, because at the end of the day we all want to have a good time and enjoy ourselves. Whether you like to take your time and play games casually or if you're a dedicated speedrunner who likes to blast their way through levels, Aurascope aims to provide an unforgettable experience to everyone!
