Our take on Valkyrie Saga
Its defining structure is an ascent across a floating island that is actively dropping toward the earth, making traversal part of the central catastrophe.
What is Valkyrie Saga?
Valkyrie Saga is a retro platformer inspired by PSX-era games.
Players control Roll the Valkyrie, a divine warrior ascending a floating island as it falls toward the world below. Movement combines climbing, dashing, jumping, and gliding, while spear combat is used against otherworldly enemies. Exploration leads through ancient ruins containing hidden secrets, cryptic writings, and clues about the civilization that once lived there. The game presents its story through discoveries made during the ascent, with the goal of learning the island’s history and stopping its impact. Its visual style and soundtrack are modeled after the original PlayStation era.

Jusant focuses on climbing a tall tower at the player's own pace, with stamina management and route choices, while Valkyrie Saga combines ascent with platforming movement, spear combat, and a falling-island threat. Both connect vertical exploration with the remnants of a past civilization, but Valkyrie Saga presents that exploration through a retro platformer structure.
