Nocternum

About the Game

Nocternum is a run-based, top-down shooter, set in an apocalyptic world overrun by demons.

Play as a child summoned in a mysterious ritual to heal what has long been broken. Kill lots of demons and die trying...again and again.

A Mysterious Narrative to Unravel

The nature of the world is the nature of yourself. Learn the truth behind this world’s downfall, and shed light on the the hidden forces that conspired to bring it about.

A Dark World to Explore

Discover a land torn apart by decades of demonic onslaught and held under the thumb of an oppressive religious regime bent on ensuring “order”—at all costs.

A Fractured Resistance to Rebuild

Team up with your loyal canine sidekick and a flawed-yet-charming cast of characters to put together the pieces of a splintered resistance movement and build an unlikely home for yourselves.

Fast-Paced, Varied Combat

Arm up with a wide variety of gear to take down the next horde and make it out alive. The unique mix of guns, arrows, and melee combat opens up a wide variety of playstyles to enjoy.

Analog-Era Aesthetic

Time seemed to freeze when the demons arrived. Let the minimalist pixel art and lo-fi soundtrack transport you to an era of clicking tape decks, whirring disk drives, and glowing CRT screens.
