Chapter 1: Reditus

About the Game

The Heremus is a ruined wasteland created after the fall of Corydon Deus.

At its heart lies Vehere—a city of ashes, guarded by a Reditus machine that turns intruders into slaves.

As Augustus, you will push deeper into this forbidden wasteland, uncovering ancient secrets, meeting unforgettable characters, and deciding the fate of a world that refuses to stay dead.

Every ruin hides secrets.

Every shadow hides a threat.

Every decision could be the last.

Core Mechanics:

• Exploration & Quests
  Traverse a beautiful UHD 2D semi-open world packed with lore-rich NPCs, branching side quests, and narrative-driven objectives.

• Strategic Turn-Based Combat
  Combat is dynamic, emphasizing enemy weakness exploitation. Breaking enemy guards through the AMP (Assault Momentum Protocol) system allows for powerful follow-up strikes.

• Quick Time Events (QTEs)
  Add precision-based depth to combat—parry enemy blows, land critical hits, or activate timed combat bonuses during pivotal moments.

• Overdrives
  As damage is taken, characters charge unique Overdrive attacks—devastating moves that can dramatically shift the momentum of battle, ideal for boss encounters.

• Character Progression
  Gain experience, craft and loot equipment.

• Robot Recruitment
  Negotiate with sentient machines in SMT V-style conversations to recruit them to your cause. Each robot comes with unique abilities and personalities.
