Our take on Inexistence
Rather than separating platform exploration from RPG progression, the game combines hidden areas and ability-based advancement with adjustable statistics and equipment. Its 16-bit presentation also places a classic pixel-art frame around a structure that includes quests, bosses, and several difficulty settings.
