Kandria is a challenging 2D platformer and hack & slack action RPG, all steeped in mysterious lore just waiting to be discovered. Solve challenging puzzles, defeat hordes of enemies, and find your way through a twisted and ruined world of caverns, tunnels, and more.

  • Zero gatekeeping Ever been caught backtracking for ages, unsure how to proceed? There's no risk of that here. Right from the beginning the world lies open for you to explore and discover as you like. But, ambition can lead to danger if you're not careful...

  • Gather and trade Explore the world and find lost remnants, items, and trinkets from the world before. Trade them for useful items, use them to upgrade your equipment, or just sell them to get rich!

  • Relax with some fishing Sometimes taking a break is the best decision you can make. If you find some water, why not relax and do some fishing? Who knows, you might even catch something rare...

  • Explore your way The world around you is a veritable playground of winding caverns and broken buildings for you to explore. How you traverse and conquer them is up to you.

  • A living world Despite the calamity that razed the surface world clean, you're not the only one roaming about. People from many walks of life still struggle to survive. Can you find a way to help them?

  • Fight nature When words fail you, you still have your trusty sword at your side. Whether it's feral animals, malfunctioning robots, or antagonistic humans, there's nothing you can't slice through.

History

Inspired by Celeste and other precision platformers, Kandria began its life as a testing ground for an in-house engine in late 2019. As more features were added, it developed into its own world, complete with characters, backstory and plot. To meet the demands of this new game, the team expanded during 2020 and 2021 to include artist Frederic Tarabout, writer Tim White, composer Mikel Dale, and sound designer Cai Jones.

In September 2021 we completed a polished vertical slice of the game’s first act, featuring 1-2 hours of gameplay.

On 14th of July of 2022 we launched a Kickstarter campaign simultaneously with a new, never before seen demo released in the Steam Next Fest.

The game released to Steam, itch.io, and on our personal website on the 11th of January 2023.
