404: The Absent God

404: The Absent God

About the Game

A hand-drawn 2D metroidvania between sci-fi and fantasy.

In the galaxy's records, planet 404 does not exist. Yet that is where Vexya, a treasure hunter, lands her small ship. Her mentor, Garrik, vanished there while searching for the Eye of Vyr'Nox, the relic of a forgotten god.

She isn't the only one looking. The Zorgs, a race of machines, have already taken over the ruins of the Vaelk, the planet's ancient inhabitants. And every region is watched by a guardian born from the Eye's gaze.
