update details
Elypse is an atmospheric metroidvania, which is a mixture of classic platformer and 2D action. The action takes place in the very depths of hell. The plot tells how every 10 years it is necessary to sacrifice people to the Abyss in order to protect oneself from the mystical Abyss - an otherworldly force with destructive power. Unfortunately, the main character was chosen to become a victim.
There is always a chance of salvation: if you manage to pass all the tests that the Abyss has prepared, then you can continue your life. However, the problem is that no one ever returned. Together with the protagonist you will have to go through many obstacles and tests. By receiving new abilities, the hero will be able to get into previously closed and inaccessible places. Each enemy poses a serious danger. You can use a special ability - dash. It helps to quickly cover a certain distance.
