Brisbane, Australia - July 29, 2024 | Brisbane-based Soliloquy Games have announced their 2D action-platformer Wren's Resurgence is now featuring in the Steam festival PixElated Adventures, hosted by Brave At Night, the studio behind the Yes, Your Grace series.
The PixElated Adventures festival is a celebration of games with pixel art and aesthetics, a perfect fit for Soliloquy Games' debut title. The festival will run for one week, kicking off right now and wrapping up on August 5.
In addition, there is now a free demo on the Wren's Resurgence Steam page. In this demo, players can experience the first chapter of the game, with a runtime of roughly 20-30 minutes.
Wren’s Resurgence is a 2D action platformer where Wren must fight her way through the Yokai-infested lands in order to rescue her sister Swan. With the evil force’s tyrannical grasp on the island, it’s up to Wren to brandish her katana and bring peace back to the land.
Soliloquy Games consists of a solo developer Sam Leitch and Wren's Resurgence will be their first developed and published title. The game started development during lockdown back in 2024 and has been a passion project for Sam ever since.
Wren's Resurgence is launching on PC (via Steam) later this year. More updates will be shared leading up to launch on the Soliloquy Games' Twitter (X) and Facebook pages.
About Wren's Resurgence
Wren’s Resurgence is a 2D action platformer where Wren must fight her way through the Yokai-infested lands in order to rescue her sister Swan. With the evil force’s tyrannical grasp on the island, it’s up to Wren to brandish her katana and bring peace back to the land.
Along her journey, Wren will meet a number of seemingly friendly faces, some of whom will aid her on the adventure ahead.
Wren is a nimble warrior, with fast-paced movement and the agility to double jump, dash and climb up walls. Shrines to one of the realm’s greatest warriors, the legendary Masamune, house some of the long-deceased master’s renowned blades, which Wren can wield in her battles.
Wren’s life will change before her eyes as she finds some light in the darkness, gaining new powers from some of the Yokai she defeats. With the protection provided by her upgradeable Omamori charm, she’ll learn about the true nature of each Yokai as she strikes them down and documents them in her journal.
Her task ahead is monumental. In addition to hordes of Yokai, Wren will be forced to test her might against the ferocious Jubokko, the towering Gashadokuro and many more.
In order to best these monstrosities, Wren must steel herself by upgrading her gear, unlock new powers and utilise all of the abilities at her disposal.
