Current Version: v0.002.0
(as of 1/9/2025)
Currently includes Atien with access to four early levels.
Runecrossed is a challenging 3D action-platformer aiming to recapture the feeling of old story-driven games of a previous era. While the current build is extremely early in development and far from final, it aims to eventually become a full-scale game with an involved story and many more areas to explore.
Test Build 02 focuses specifically on revamping Atien, the first of three playable characters, and trying a new approach to level design that is more focused and (hopefully) easier to navigate, tailored to Atien's specific abilities.
Efrix and Latra are temporarily rendered unplayable until they are similarly reworked. If you still wish to play as them in an outdated state, you can still download v0.001.1 or v0.001.0, but I strongly recommend at least playing the newest version first.
The game will feature three playable characters, each with their own unique forms of combat and movement:
Atien is an agile swordsman, able to slice through enemies and speedily propel himself through environments, making him the most straightforward of the heroes to control.
Efrix (currently unavailable) has an indirect style of fighting, centered around utilizing his telescope as a remote-operated turret to hit enemies from unique angles.
Latra (currently unavailable) may lack wings, but she is a very nimble individual who utilizes her parkour abilities and grappling hook to make dynamic use of the terrain.

Hey! Will download this again and (hopefully!) play it on the weekend. Is v0.001.1.zip the latest update? -Raitek
Hello, it is! Though keep in mind that version is almost a year old at this point and is quite dated in my mind as a lot has changed since then haha, Test Build 02 should hopefully be in a few months at latest.
Gotcha! I'll give it a play for a bit and see what's been going on! Looking forward to it Zerio!
This game looks pretty amazing and ambitious! One critique I have is in v0.001.1 is the sides of some screens (like the controls list or objective/collectibles list) will be cropped off when playing on screen resolutions taller than 16:9
Hey thanks, I really appreciate it! The potentiality of screen resolution issues has been in the back of my mind but I keep forgetting to actually check for it, so I appreciate the heads up.
I've been working a lot on the next version lately, so I'll be sure to try fixing the scaling of screen elements soon. Thanks again!
i love it
