Chrysopoeia: A Glimmer in the Dark (First Demo!)

Full-screen is recommended!

Go on a dungeon escape of a lifetime lifetimes! Following a sentient gem (you!) and a lost adventurer, who are each other's only hope to escape the Great Alchemist’s underground castle.

(Also there is a kitty cat ^-^ but it’s not been added yet. )

Chrysopoeia: A Glimmer in the Dark is a pixel horror game inspired by classic RPG horror titles and the style of 90s dungeon crawler games. It’s made in Unity over the course of a month as a submission for the 19th RPG Maker Horror Game Jam. 

The current demo takes about 5 minutes to complete. 

We plan to finish this game after the jam! If you enjoy this game and want to see where the story goes (or the kitty cat)…... Leave a comment to let us know!
