About Elsie
Elsie is a neo-retro, hyperkinetic, rogue-like action platformer filled with procedurally generated levels and an army of robots to blast through.
After an attack on the City of Neotoño, Dr. Grey takes refuge in a beachside bastion known as the Sapir Wharf.
Here, she creates Elsie: an android given a mission to uncover the mystery behind the attack and save planet Ekis from the disasters that have plagued it.
Players must dash, dive, and shoot their way through stages filled with dynamic enemies and intense boss fights, all while performing perfectly timed precision parrying. In this roguelike rollercoaster players will die and die and die again – but you'll always get back on your feet to embrace the chaos.
Features
- Adrenaline pumping platforming with a unique parry system
- Procedurally generated runs through neon-drenched pixel stages
- Endless synergies with dozens of weapons, skills and augments
- Tons of replayability with hours of content and daily challenges
