A primordial giant died on its feet, and its colossal corpse became the world. Take up your axe and climb the god's body toward a heart that still beats. A side-view action roguelike where you forge your own build from hundreds of fallen souls. Die, and you are forgotten — there is no resurrection

<h2 class="bb_tag" >A primordial giant died, and became the world.</h2>  <br>  The giant Brimir died on his feet, so colossal his corpse pierced the heavens — feet planted in the earth, spine a pillar bridging earth and sky. Ages turned his colossal corpse into terrain — skin became land, the space between ribs became canyons, pooled fluids<br>  became seas. And high above, in a chest lost to the clouds, the heart still beats.<br>  <br>  You are a pilgrim with an axe. From the giant's feet, you climb his body toward a heart no one has ever reached.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ Carve Runes — Hundreds of Combinations</h2>  Runes: force condensed from the souls of the fallen. Fire, frost, poison, undeath, steel — combine hundreds of them freely to forge a pilgrim that is yours alone. There is no correct build. &quot;What if I paired this with that?&quot; is the whole game.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ Rifts and Wardens</h2>  Rifts: wounds torn open in the giant's body. A Warden lurks within each. Open the rift, defeat the Warden, climb higher. Every floor a different body part, a different ecology, a different death.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ The Weight of Mortality — Hardcore</h2>  Die, and you are forgotten. There is no resurrection. Only those who can die are worthy of reaching the heart. Every pilgrimage could be your last.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ The Heartbeat — Pressure of Time</h2>  With each beat, the giant's blood surges through his body like a rising tide. Linger too long and you are swept out into the dawn. The very heart you chase is what pushes you back.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ Muster the Immortal Legends</h2>  Great pilgrims who once sought the heart, now bound and unable to die. They cannot climb for themselves — so they lend their power to you, a mortal. Companions who climb beside you, each with unfinished business at the heart.<br>  <br>  <h2 class="bb_tag" >■ Stronger Each Time</h2>  The pilgrim is forgotten in death, but the legends remember. Unlocks are permanent, carried into the next pilgrimage. A little higher with every death.<br><br>  <strong>Side-view Action · Roguelike · Hardcore · Pixel Art</strong><br>
