Shardstorm

About this game

When the Echo fell, her essence shattered, seven divine Shards torn loose from their master, drifting across a wounded world.

Wherever they landed, horrors woke, old magic twisted, and the earth remembered its scars.

You are the Wanderer, the only one who hears their voices.

Take up the Shards, Gluttony, Envy, Pride, Greed, Wrath, Sloth, and Lust... each a whisper of a forgotten sin, each capable of reshaping you into something powerful… or dangerous.

Fight through endless waves of abominations, unravel the Shards’ past through Memory Fragments, confront the Echo guardians who still cling to fragments of divinity, and survive long enough to challenge Wrath at the storm’s heart.

Shardstorm blends fast-paced horde-survivor action with ARPG progression and a dark fantasy lore...

Wield Sentient Shards That Orbit, and Evolve

  • Your Shards do the killing - They spin, chain, lash out, duplicate, explode, slow, heal, each with its own personality and rule set. Upgrade them mid-run to unlock absurd builds.

Challenge Echo Bosses

As you grow stronger, the Echoes begin to notice you.

When your Resonance peaks, an Echo manifests, not as a simple boss, but as a will awakened by your presence.

  • Each Echo wields its own Shard and drops unique items tied to its nature. Defeating them deepens your connection to the storm and shapes your build.

  • Memory Fragments are discovered organically as you play, gradually revealing the truth behind the Echoes and the world itself.

ASTRAL WOUNDS Divine Power, Permanent Consequence

As you survive the storm, ancient forces take notice.

Astral Wounds are run-defining blessings, fragments of forgotten divinity that permanently alter your powers.

  • Massive Gameplay-Changing Effects

  • Earned Through Mastery, Not Chance

  • Choices Shape Every Future Run

Each Astral Wound is a scar left by the Shards themselves...
