Why I made this game:

As we grow up and gradually immerse ourselves in society—whether at school or at work—we are judged every day by people who don't really know us and bombarded daily by overhyped information. Slowly, we forget the genuine happiness we once felt—picnicking with family, playing basketball with friends, reading a favorite comic, or enjoying a classic game… Gradually, we become unhappy.

I hope that with this game, in the most timeless way, I can remind people that we were once happy, and we should awaken ourselves and become that happy person again.

This game is dedicated to everyone who has become unhappy due to the pressures of study or work.

Story Background

The protagonist is anxious, numb, and exhausted from the grind of work and life. On this particular day, feeling extremely suppressed and irritable, he changes into his sportswear, hoping to catch a brief breath through exercise. However, shortly after entering the park alone, a white light transports him to a strange world. He doesn't know where he is or remember who he is. But danger lurks everywhere, and monsters continuously attack him. He can only defeat enemies and keep moving forward!

Perhaps, through this journey, he can find himself again...

Game Features

Diverse strategies for beating the game. Based on scene elements, skill choices, monster traits, etc., you can choose different approaches to clear levels. Whether it's a slow, conservative push, a rapid charge relying on reflexes and skill, observing monster behaviors and terrain to navigate, or memorizing level details after countless attempts to clear them in one go, you can find the method that suits you to conquer challenges.

Varied stage designs. Each level is uniquely crafted, requiring you to quickly adapt to new monsters and their attack patterns. Pick the skills and combat methods you deem fit to defeat them. As you progress, beware of traps within the environment.

Distinctive attack skills. The current version offers four styles of attack skills, each comprising a normal attack and a special move. You can pair your preferred style with your fellow [ Fairy ] to breakthrough stages.

Chests and hidden scores. Beyond defeating enemies, chests and hidden scores await exploration in the scenes.

Game Tips

· You cannot move until your attack animation finishes; monsters are similarly bound. Use attack intervals to find openings.

· Some projectiles penetrate obstacles; others do not. Using cover is a viable survival tactic.

· Talk to NPCs to learn about the game world's lore and potentially gain clues to overcome challenges.

· If you notice any [anomaly] in the scene, or your attack feedback appears where it shouldn't, try pressing Q or continue attacking that spot. You might gain the Elf's power or uncover hidden scores.

· Observe the overall screen to better dodge dangerous attacks.

· You can select “Play Again” in the pause menu (ESC) to restart the current level. Save your progress after each Level - through a magic book - if you want.
