Hello everyone!
We're only few days away from releasing AWAKEN — Astral Blade and are as excited as you are. But we can't leave you without the last diary about the game's monsters (learn about
the game’s world,
the main character, Tania, and her emotional module, Cythna), so enjoy reading.
Karpas energy has profoundly altered the ecosystem of the Horace Islands, leading to significant mutations in the DNA of plants and animals and resulting in an extraordinary level of biodiversity. Despite this diversity, all creatures share a common trait: increased aggression. This led us to imagine plants that could merge fantasy aesthetics with dangerous elements, reflecting the natural course of evolution. What kind of flora could embody beauty and peril, fitting seamlessly into this evolving, fantastical world?
Imagine giant flowers and vines that have evolved by merging with the form of a mantis. These plants could feature intricate designs and vibrant colours that entice the eye while hiding their predatory nature. These plants could have elongated, spiky petals that resemble a mantis’s limbs, creating an enchanting yet intimidating appearance.
Additionally, envision flying spore plants capable of generating various types of energy spheres that launch at their prey, immobilising them with stunning energy blasts. These spore plants might have translucent wings that shimmer in the light, allowing them to float gracefully through the air as they hunt. Together, these flora would embody the duality of beauty and danger, ideally suited to the mystical and treacherous environment of the Horace Islands.
Fungi, playing the role of decomposers in the ecosystem, have also experienced significant mutations due to Karpas energy. These evolved fungi exhibit a slow, almost deliberate movement that starkly contrasts with their swift and lethal strikes when hunting.
There are even more fantastical concepts and astonishing creatures to explore. When designing the bosses, we focused on creating a blend of immense power and engaging gameplay mechanics.
Wolf King: This formidable creature features strong front limbs that allow for devastating melee attacks, while its bites are relatively weak in comparison. The Wolf King excels in powerful ramming attacks, using its size and strength to charge at opponents, creating chaos on the battlefield.
