SolSeraph v16.05.2023

SolSeraph is a vibrant mash-up of retro-inspired tower defense and action-platforming that harkens back to the 16-bit golden age while delivering fresh, modern twists. You take on the role of Helios, the divine guardian of humanity, tasked with rebuilding civilization’s floating islands and protecting them from unholy darkness. SolSeraph seamlessly shifts between two distinct playstyles: a top-down strategy mode where you plan and erect defenses to stave off relentless monster assaults, and a side-scrolling action mode where you plunge into enemy lairs, sword in hand, to smash bosses and clear each region’s blight.

From humble villages with farms and houses to fully fortified bastions bristling with archer towers and barracks, you guide each tribe through expansion, resource management, and tactical placement of defenses. When the fog recedes and monster nests are revealed, you assume Helios’s mantle. Armed with a shield, a fast sword, and magical archery, you’ll confront goblins, beastmen, flying bat riders and, eventually, the Younger God pulling their strings. Defeating these foes unlocks powerful abilities—from healing herbs to ice shards—that enrich both your strategy and combative arsenal.

Visually, SolSeraph captures the charm of 16-bit classics with lush pixel art backgrounds, dynamic weather effects, and detailed enemy designs. The world unfolds across floating islands, ancient caverns, and forgotten cities, each with unique challenges and atmospheric flair. The partnership with legendary composer Yuzo Koshiro elevates the experience, delivering an unforgettable opening theme that sets the stage for your epic journey. Storytelling is in capable hands, too, with narrative design by Jonas Kyratzes (The Talos Principle, The Sea Will Claim Everything), ensuring that the mythic tale of Helios and the fate of humanity feels both grand and personal.
