About Sunblaze

About this game

”Whose blood is that on the walls?” -Josie

Josie is up for a challenge. Her dad, a retired superhero, has fixed his superhero training simulator and lets Josie go in there to play around a bit. After all, show us a parent who wouldn't want to train their daughter to be a superhero? But then suddenly the training room goes rogue, and... Josie is up for a challenge.

In this tough, hand-crafted precision platformer, you’ll play as Josie, aka. Sunblaze, with a mission to complete your superhero training. The training room is full of puzzles, brain-tickling challenges, obstacles, TNT, spikes, drones... And a purrfect sidekick: the cat. You have got a cat. What else do you need?

Well, skills. That’s what you need. The ever-changing training room keeps on bringing you challenge after challenge, and you'll stay glued up on your controller for hours.

Being a parent is hard, but most likely not this hard

Ok, all the parents who have not lost their kids in a mall or other crowd ever, raise your hands? It's all good, at least you didn't lose them in a hostile superhero simulator full of lasers, evil bots, spikes, and... Well, go and see for yourself!

WARNING: Playing Sunblaze may cause massive brain growth

You know, to survive all the levels, your brain needs to do some work. We know, we know, it might sound scary, but like Aristotle said: "It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.", and Quentin Tarantino put it even better: "Violence is one of the most fun things to watch."

Oh, are you still reading? Go and get playing right now! We will promise you one thing: dying over 5000 times on one game has never felt this good.

(P.S. Dying is 100% optional, the already easy controls and gameplay can be customized with accessibility features to meet your own needs and wants.)

I have not played it for long, but the game is a fun platformer

If you liked celeste, or if you're a fan of speedrunning you will love this game. The game gets harder the closer you are to the end and you can even unlock a hard mode that's even more tricky.

Excellent precision platformer inspired by Celeste! It has everything I needed in a good precision platformer. Controls are fluid and it feels good to play. The advanced techs are not too difficult to pull off and allow for some creative platforming. The level design, while feeling like it is confusing at first, really starts to flow together once you start shaving deaths off your pb. Music and visuals are very well done too. If you liked Celeste you'll like this, but be warned, it is quite challenging to 100%

The game is easy to understand, immediate fun (more than Super Meat Boy, maybe because the heroine is cute ?) graphically appealing, the difficulty gradually increases, we die all the time but want to try again as soon as possible.

While clearly inspired by Celeste (this is a good thing), Sunblaze carves out its own niche by focusing the game around complex single-screen rooms. The level design and movement mechanics are what really make this work: Josie has powerful horizontal movement, but gaining height requires making use of the environment, and those environments are varied enough that the gameplay remains fresh throughout the entire game. If you're here for fast-paced precision platforming, Sunblaze is a blast to play.
