About Aggelos

About this game

Step through time and discover a mesmerizing new action-RPG that looks like it was plucked straight out of the 16-bit era, but plays like a modern-day marvel! Inspired by non-linear Japanese retro adventures such as Wonder Boy In Monster World, Aggelos hurls players into the middle of a colossal struggle for survival as beings from another dimension threaten to invade the peaceful Kingdom of Lumen. Bursting with secrets and side-quests, and boasting slick melee combat that any 2D action game would envy, Aggelos is the perfect combination of retro style and modern-day game design.

A vast kingdom to explore

Venture through forests, seas, cave systems and ancient temples as you seek to uncover the magical elements needed to save the world from total annihilation.

A classical non-linear adventure

Explore a sprawling world that gradually reveals itself, Metroidvania-style, as you gain new abilities and equipment.

Deadly encounters

Thwart towering bosses and their tricky minions as you take on perilous mainline quests and optional odd-jobs for the people of Lumen.

Tactical depth

Unlock magical abilities and high-level attacks, expertly chaining these immense powers together to clear screens of enemies in seconds.

Stunning sprite art

Forget out-of-place modern art: Aggelos boasts superlative character designs and animations while remaining proudly, and faithfully, 16-bit through and through.

Memorable chiptunes

Lose yourself to a retro-inspired soundtrack that floods the Kingdom of Lumen with life.

Not only is Aggelos inspired by 16-bit era platformers, but it's also a tribute to them. So far, I'm about halfway through it on normal mode which provides some challenge, but other than having to use an herb and a potion, I have not yet died. X-box One controller support could be better as you initially need the keyboard to configure the game to use the controller in the options menu. After that, it will recognize the X-box One controller unless you have a wireless controller that turns itself off to conserve its batteries during a gameplay break which will essentially hard-lock the game because it won't recognize the keyboard or the controller when you try to resume gameplay. This is annoying because you have to restart from the last save point and you lose any progress made since then.
