Hello sadi-- *khof* I mean magic questing friends !

😈✒️ Game in active development ❤️‍🔥

🎮 Gameplay :


  • Third person platformer with puzzle mechanics
  • Classic WASD or ZQSD | left stick controls with mouse or right stick to orient view
  • Keyboard users can use Left Shift to force safe slow walk.
  • Mouse wheel or gamepad Up and Down control zoom
  • If something can be pushed, just move towards it, the golem will handle it
  • No lives or "continue". You melted, got compressed, crushed or rolled over ? You will respawn at the last visited checkpoint.
  • Time attack : there is a timer on top of your screen and a proof screen-shot is taken at the end of each level. You can manually make one by pressing CTRL+S.
  • There is often more than one solution
  • You might "glide" a bit since the golem is slightly slippery BUT if you release movement controls and your horizontal velocity is not too high,, our friend will have some "preservation" instinct.

Screen-shots are put in [the game folder]/Saved/Screenshots

🖥️ Performances :


The game uses SM6 Vulkan shaders. It is as optimized as possible, the goal being to have it run smoothly on my favourite device : the SteamDeck ❣️
Since it is using Epic upscaling technology, you shouldn't have any compatibility issue.
It auto-configures but you can tweak the settings.
Please use the "screen percentage" slider to improve your performances by reducing the resolution and upscaling.
Also, you can choose between borderless fullscreen or windowed modes.


HAVE FUN ! 😋
